How Is It Going?

We are seven weeks into 2023. Did you make any New Year’s Resolutions? It’s estimated that 95% of resolutions involve fitness. That’s a good thing.

The bad news is, about 90% of fitness goals are abandoned before the end of January. Old, bad habits return, and self-esteem takes a hit.

Getting fit and staying healthy should be fun! But so many people go about it wrong. They start jogging and eating like a rabbit. Where’s the fun in that? Not to mention you won’t get the results you desire.

Here’s some advice: get a trainer who understands your fitness goals for your body. They will make a plan, and guide you through exercises which will strengthen you and benefit you in the long term. You need to lift weights, and you need to eat. Lifting will make you hungry as hell. Don’t starve yourself! Eat!

If you have given up on your fitness goals for 2023, I encourage you to try again. The only failures are the ones who quit…

Proactive

Are you a proactive person or are you reactive? It might depend upon the situation.

Proactive people get things done. They don’t wait around to see what life sends their way. Being proactive means going after what you want.

All of us are reactive sometimes. Life isn’t predictable, so when plans go awry we adapt.

If you aren’t living the full life you desire, you can change things if you’re willing…

Unseen Battles

Are you aware there is a spiritual battle going on around us that we can’t see? That’s right. When horrible things happen, there is a spiritual cause. Just because we can’t see it doesn’t make it less real.

We have an invisible enemy who desperately tries to destroy us. He has many weapons: death, disease, addiction and more. He doesn’t hesitate to use any and all of them.

The good news is, we worship a God with unlimited power. No demon can stand up to Him, nor can they thwart God’s plans for our lives.

We access God’s unlimited power through prayer. Use it. Often…

Dreams Have Power

Our dreams for our lives have power. But how do we harness that power and turn our dreams into reality?

Accept that your mind is exceptionally powerful. The key to manifesting our dreams comes from our minds. We must see ourselves with a successful outcome, and we have to feel it, too. Whatever it is, believe you have already achieved it, hold on tightly to your vision, and work like hell to bring it to life.

You can have everything you want in life, if you believe…

Money

Making money is one of the easiest things we do. Yet, people use it as a measuring stick to see how well they are doing versus other people. That’s pointless! When you start to compare yourself with others, you rob yourself of so much.

Keep money in perspective. It’s simply our method of paying our bills, but more importantly money is a tool we can use to do good. Be good, and spread goodness. Money will look different to you when you do…

You

Do you find it hard to stand up for yourself? Many people do. It seems everyone wants to “play nice” and not rock the boat.” Some people say, “let’s just make the best of it.”

That’s weak, and shows a lack of self-esteem. You are not making the best of anything with that attitude. You are compromising yourself, and that tears at your self worth.

You were created by God, and He doesn’t make worthless people. Standing your ground might seem difficult in the beginning, but if you are on the side of what’s right you should speak up.

Don’t compromise. Stand up for yourself…

Two Simple Words

I read something yesterday about couples who have healthy relationships. They acknowledge each other with two simple words: thank you. It takes minimal effort to thank someone who has helped you or shown kindness to you or a loved one. Minimal.

Take the time to write thank you notes. Anyone can text or email. The few minutes it takes you to write a short note will pay great dividends in the future. You will stand out from the crowd when you do this. I promise…
