Want more control of your Life?

Often I am surrounded by people who think I live such a naïve form of life.  I have faith, I have hope and I am rarely concerned about my life in many ways these days.  This was not always the case.  If you have read this blog you often will hear me refer to the days before I lost my weight and changed the focus in my life.

I didn’t like the way I felt back then, but I still never gave up working on being excited about life and finding a way out.  Struggle is tough!  It sometimes takes all we have to keep going.  Heck there are still some days at the end of the day I am glad that day is over.  The good news though is even those days have something exciting happening and progress is made in some area of my life.

What’s the difference?  I get to set the pace!  I make the choices to stick to the plan I have or to take some time off from it.  I had to laugh yesterday I was told that I sure have myself in a lot of areas.  I work with clients, I am part of a team putting together a revolutionary life coaching plan, I do clinical hypnotherapy, have a full time IT position that put me on call, I watch what I eat and exercise, and recently have been asked to go back into ministry work.  Sounds like a full plate.  My response was that in one of my favorite life giving books I often read that if you are given talents you should use them or they may be taken away.  In the same book it tells me to whom much is given, much is expected.

With all that said than I control my life with choices.  I choose into my life to get all life has to offer.  Diet and exercise take time and planning.  So does being ill, it robs hope and joy along with time.  Everything has a cost.  I just look for the results rather than getting bogged down in the effort.  It is more fun to be fit rather than struggling with carrying around all that extra weight.  It was a small price to pay for the fullness of life I experience now.

Want control of your Life?  Take it, plan it, work it, and live it.  Start replacing disempowering thoughts with empowering thoughts.  Learn to breath.  Find out what faith and hope is again.  Stop the excuses, stop the self abuse, and take one step at a time.  Do it and keep going at it.  Perfection is not the mantra here.  It is all about the journey and what you learn along the way.  After all whose life is it anyways?

Not sure where to start?   Fill out a contact form and lets talk.  No charge!  Yeah, that is one more thing I do, help others to find a way to get started to enjoy their life.  After all, to whom much has been given, much is expected.
