Decide.

 “WHAT I'M TELLING YOU IS, IF YOU WANT TO DO THINGS YOUR OWN WAY, YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION - YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO FIND A LITTLE COURAGE.”

― John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany


It takes courage to make decisions.

You won't always have people rah-rah-ing you or high fiving you at the finish line. 

Especially when it involves self-care.

And that is okay. 

Do you slap yourself on the shoulder every so often and give yourself the nod of approval? 

Well, you should!


We, as ever-changing Humans, can be our worst critics and our biggest heroes. 

Be your hero. 


"Sometimes, you're all you have" -

and sometimes that's all you need.

The last four months have been...interesting.

I would dare to say difficult. 

Why?

I took on clients where I saw so much potential. 

I knew they had it in them to change.

To receive everything they said they wanted.

The problem was...they couldn't see it!

They couldn't get past the lies they fed(excuse the pun)themselves. 

To step out of the box they had put themselves in and see the truth of who they are. 

They weren't ready to be their own Hero. 

Where do you stand?

Do you rank high on your list of priorities? 

Do you listen to what people have said or are saying about you?

Do you allow other people to deter/discourage you from making necessary changes?  

When you make decisions(do you?)regarding your self-care, do you choose what is in your best and highest interests? 

Take the time to evaluate and assess. 

This doesn't have to be hard.

Just decide.

Decide who you want to be. 

I don't say that lightly.
But it was my first step to self-approval. 
At any weight!
I decided who I was.
Where I wanted to be.
How I wanted to be.
And I try to live with intention.
With mistakes along the way, and that is also okay. 
This is to encourage you to do the same. 
I am going to leave you with a blueprint of sorts.
Write it out and allow change to happen.
Wishing you Love & Peace...but mostly, Peace. 

1. Work on loving yourself, right now, at this moment 
 
2.  Have quiet time with yourself (time out!)

 3.   If you aren't willing to do the work for change, stop complaining. 
 
 4. Big thighs, save lives! Love your thighs. Love your face. Love your butt. Need I say more? Okay, I will: LOVE YOURSELF!

5. Speak kind words to yourself and try, to others. 

6. Admit when you need help and then get it.
