TAKING CHARGE!

You don't have to be Superman or Wonder Woman to achieve your goals! You just need to TAKE CHARGE of YOUR LIFE!
If we are placing blame and making excuses, how are we ever going to possess the reality we dream of? So what exactly am I saying?
Today take inventory of who you really are and how you approach things. Do you own it? Or do you have a million reasons as to why you can't get it done?
Next, what do you really want from yourself, and how do you dream of your body being? Is it fair or realistic? Part of people being successful is knowing how to create realistic goals that reflect who you are.
In other words, I don't want to set myself up to dream of being a size 2 when my natural frame at it's lightest is a size 8. Why? Because I'm 5'11 and that's who I am. So have things match who you are. If you have bigger hips and butt, well then your goal is to have the hardest, strongest, hottest hips and butt YOU can.
So we know that we have to take RESPONSIBILITY. We need to KNOW WHO WE ARE when creating our goals. STAY POSITIVE. This takes a little stamina and a positive attitude can help you have the endurance to keep going.
Don't wimp out. If you want to make a change, then commit to it rain or shine, summer or winter.
If your life and body have been on a course you would like to improve, then do it! You are not a permanent victim to your reality as you have known it and helped create it. We are spirited and powerful people who can change the direction of our lives. So stop saying "I want to lose weight" and JUST DO IT!
Once you deal with the fact that it's the way it is because of YOU then YOU can take back the control and start making changes. Which I can say YOU already have! Your first step was becoming part of the Doezie Challenge. Stick with it WE WILL DO IT- TOGETHER!!!
