Re-energize those goals

All right - Spring has sprung - its a great time to re=energixe those goals. I have been working steadily for 2 weeks toward a very important goal, but noticed yesterday I was slipping. So, today I re-dedicate myself to my goals. To Do List: Find new Marketing idea and act on it Read from Editing Book for 30-60 minutes Write for an hour Watch 60 minutes of You Were Born Rich DVD Go to Gym - 30 minutes Cardio, 30 minutes weights Work on websites Meditate for 30 minutes OK - Now on to the list!

Feel the pain . . .

Ya know - before I got into exercise a few years ago, whenever I would hear someone say "Feel The pain" when they were talking about exercise, I would think "Yeah, right!" Well, now I am such a person. I love that burn. I have been doing an affirmation on being in perfect health and being a size 6, and for the last 6 months have been doing cardio, but to no avail (or at least it seemed it). I started weight-training again yesterday (first time in 7 years - yikes!) and found out a few things - I am feeling the burn again, YAY; I wake up sore again, YAY, and I also had my body-fat percentage measured and found that all that cardio had made a difference, I may have stayed the exact same weight, but I was burning off 7% of my body fat! YIPPEE!~ Added to that - my perfect health mantra must be working. I find all the foods I used to love either tasteless, or even worse, gross. Now I am starting to look at trying to eat Lettuce (GASP!~). Yeah, I have never been a fan of t...

On track, in track, or something . . .

Ah, what a wonderful day - the sun is shining and I feel great! Got asked about doing a TV spot yesterday for my book Green Cleaning: Save Your Money, Save Your Health, Save The Earth . (That's https://www.createspace.com/3374986 for those who only see text not html) Its exciting what the Universe can do, once you get your sub-consious in gear! I have started following John Kremer on Twitter - He does alot with Book Marketing - very interested to hear what he has to say. Need a boost in my exercise routine, so I have my first workout with a new trainer today. Lets hope I am sore tomorrow! Now say after me: I choose to listen with my Inductive mind, not my deductive mind.

Day 10

This has been a nice day. I purposefully took time away from my challenge today - for some rest & relaxation. I exercised and tried to just day dream, but instead my mind went over my new novel. LOL I really do need to get a recording device so when these things hit me I can record them right away. It would be faster than trying to write with my hen scratches. Tomorrow, I send out the rest of the speaker invites. I've narrowed down the companies I will be using for the teleconference to 3. There is a company out there that allows it for free, but only up to 96 people. Way too few for what I am planning:) Besides novel "thinking" I also set about shortening several pairs of pants. At 5'0", it is rare that I can find clothes I don't have to shorten. So, I usually buy the pants and let them sit, but this time I couldn't do that. WOTS (Writers of the Sound) conference is coming up soon and I plan on taking my new clothes - the ones that aren't baggy -...

Day 7 - Had an immediate LOA attraction today!

OK - this has never happened before - or I just never noticed it. I have been wanting to move away from plastic bottles, get a water purifying system and go that route. Only thing was, I didn't know what kind of bottle I was going to replace the plastic ones with. This morning I made a conscious thought that I wanted a water bottle that would be clean, would be easy to clean, and be good for the environment. WHAM! Mail came - and in it were two, and only two items. Both were catalogs - one from IsabellaCatalog.com and the other from LL Bean, Both included a new stainless steel, food grade water bottle! I am thrilled! I have now ordered two of the bottles from Isabella and am very excited for them to get here.

Day 7

( Originally posted July 26, 2008 Boundless Living Challenge ) Wow - am I sure it has only been one week? I am so different today than I was 7 days ago. EFT has been an amazing gift and through it I am conquering so many barriers. I am glowingly happy and loving it:) I find myself craving going to the gym again and have gone for 3 days in a row. I am loving it and have gotten up to 45 minutes between the elliptical and the treadmill. Today I let my mind focus on my vision board. I added a few things to it and feel them coming true. I feel like I already have two of the items on my vision board. Its amazing. I let myself look at tours online today. I have always wanted to travel to Greece, and it is one of the things on my vision board. I have contacted a couple tour groups asking for more information. Well, that is about it for today:) Have a fantastic weekend everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Day 5 - Decluttering

Well, I woke up this morning feeling great - at 5 am. Then, by 7am, I was exhausted and went back to sleep until 10:45. But, when I got up I went and exercised for the first time in months. MAN it felt good. I have been steadily losing weight for the last few of weeks, but until now the desire to go to the gym hadn't surfaced. Instead, I just lost interest in snacking (whoa to the Lay's Stax BBQ chips - they used to be my favorite snack food) and instead eat smaller meals. Last night, before I went to bed, I had an amazing moment of clarity and between 5-7 this morning, I researched my idea. It has some interesting factors I am going to keep looking at. But, I keep saying my goal "I will make more than $1000/day by Sept 4." I don't know quite what opportunity I need to do to reach that goal, but I am acting on ideas that come to me and am very excited to see where they go. I used to want to take on the job of the Universe and do it all, but feel content at the mom...
