Fear No Monday

fear no mondayHappy Monday Gang!!

One of the rules that I found is worth

of us always keeping is: “Never fail on Monday”

We must work out every Monday!

We must keep our Diet every Monday!

We must take our pills every Monday!

It has been shown in studies just how much

the “Monday Effect” can impact the rest of

the week., it seems that both monkeys and

humans tend to somehow be more inclined

not to follow through when Monday is not

addressed correctly.

Anyway I hope you have a great and

very productive week.

Expectations.

I hate it whenWe must decide what it is that we want, and once we do that

take the steps to accomplish it. Not any easier but clearer.

We live in an “Immediate satisfaction” society that has no patience

for planning, and organizing but even less for consistent

on-going daily work.

WE, however understand that our commitment, planning,

and consistent work will provide us the success needed to

support the next round of battles.

Gang, we know that it is not the easy but the consistency where

the success lies.

Let us keep going so that we might continue to be examples

to those observing us, those wanting to attain some of the

same success nectar. Continue to be an example.

Continue to put the work needed.

Let us all continue to make progress, daily progress.

Strength.

a person who fallsSince we will all fall “eventually”

we might as well plan on learning.

A fall, mistake or lesson is only bad

if we learn nothing from it.

We must remember that either we earn

or we learn. YES it is a win, win so don’t

let fear of failure keep you from trying.

We are on this together so if I can be

of any assistance reach out, write me at

Gang THANKS!! We have crossed the 2575

followers mark. I am very grateful.

There Is Hope For Us All.

every saintThis gives me hope.

This makes me think that you and I regardless of

how flawed or great we think we are…. Well we have

a chance. There are possibilities in that even if we have

been taken for granted or people not only did not keep

their promises but failed us there is a future.

Today we end a season. This can mean a lot or

it can mean nothing. It is up to us.

What are we waking up with tomorrow?

Ideas and thoughts of power and progress OR

feelings of lost and less.

I hope and pray that we will all tomorrow JUMP

out of bed and run to meet the day and

the new opportunities.

Gang we know how to be and do good….

How about we push for great.

What if we work on excellent.

We deserve it and we know how to do it.

I am here. I have been here. I will be here.

I know what it is like when people promise and

offer to “Be There” only to be missing in action

when we actually need them.

That will not be me.

I will be here tomorrow like every day at 06:30

It is not 05:30 and it is not 05:40

It is 06:30 every day regularly from Monday to

Saturday and every now and then I will throw

a Sunday but personally Sundays are for

God, Family and friends. NO, Not necessarily

for church as I have found that God wants me

in other places at times.

Let’s end this year with a bang and start

the new year even stronger.

Gang I wish for all the best for each and every one of you.

On Problems.

28bc85d31deead30e25ce610a05cf5c8The one thing that I have learned in life is:

“Only share problems with those that can actually

do something about them.”

Therefore I seldom share my problems with

anyone. I find it does nothing, nothing at all.

I am just tired of those that say: “I am here for you”

Of those that have said that to me I am yet in my

52 years of age to have ONE., just ONE of them

actually be there and be part of solution process.

Big difference from those that actually jump in

seldom saying a word about it and getting their

hands dirty and actually helping.

Maybe it is just my experience., I HOPE.

Do not forget that the weight loss process is

very much a personal battle and while it might

be nice to have a support structure around you

expect for this to be a lonely road.

Own your challenges. Push forward full force.

Be successful so that NO ONE can ever say

that your success was because of what “they”

gave you or what you “took” from them.

Stay in the fight and you will win., maybe

not immediately but eventually.

Please share the love

Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, etc.

Be Quiet!

be quietDo you at times feel like saying this to some people?

OK… Maybe it is just me.

I just hate it when people think that we must

hear and share of their opinion.

Sorry but I have no patience or tolerance

for people like that.  Maybe, just maybe

you are a lot nicer than me and you think

that if you just play nice maybe they will

eventually get the idea… I have news for you

they will not.

So what to do?? I put a stop to it right away.

I have actually chosen to move away from

my siblings because I could not tolerate the

small mindedness and constant negativity.

I have ended relationships and left behind

negative and non-supportive friends

Sorry., I just have no room for it.

I hope you can protect your goals and dreams

from the negativity and attacks of others and

continue to fight on. Do not be a casualty of political

correctness. Just Say NO MORE.

The Fabric Of Life.

Screenshot_2015-10-17-22-27-46-1What are we made of? What is within us that

would push us up in the morning so that we

might accomplish the goals and plans that will

make our life something to be proud of.

There are challenges and they will be around

for as long as we want to accomplish and grow.

The difference is in how we confront the challenges.

We are made to succeed and we can if we

pay the price.

How much have you increased the distance

of your walks? For how much longer can you

work out? How much better do you feel?

When we pay the price we increase our stamina

and strength. Let’s do it. Let’s be better.

The Meds In Our Days.

Pills

I know very well that I have to take certain meds

every single day. At very specific times.

 I know that I need them.

But What to do when for whatever reason we

are unable to take them. What to do when

the pain hits and you are unable to function.

If you are depressed or dealing with fibro

with out your meds you might as well

just sit and breath as there is not much else

you can do. I KNOW.

There are many reason why we at times are

unable to take our meds as prescribed and

we must avoid that by any means but when it

happens try to have a plan B even if it is just

to howl at the moon in a therapeutic fashion.

or fantasize about inflicting the same pain

on some one who has not kept their promises.

Hope you never go through putting up with pain

because of lack of meds… It Sucks

If you use lyrica or Cymbalta like I do you know

how severe the withdrawals are if you do not

follow the prescribed times.

I guess I am just venting and letting my own

body know that we still have more battles to

fight in the future. All in all pains and all

I am grateful to be alive today.

I wish you all a great one today and always.

I AM !!

i am not afraidIt is more important and relevant for me to accept

myself so I just can not waste time and effort in

trying to make others like me.

I LIKE ME ! And that is pretty darn great.

Work every day in making you proud of yourself

Push yourself harder than you would ever push

anyone else. Those challenges are the building blocks

for your future life.

There is greatness within you and all you have to do

is sweat it out. Carve it out of the fat. Push it out.

Make it happen.

Day by day we get to see the results of out efforts and

IT IS WORTH IT.
