Slow & Steady Wins The Race

"Begin with the end in mind" (~Stephen Covey), but don't forget to shift your focus to the journey & systems you are putting in place to get you where you want to be.

It is great to have goals & direction, but sometimes we focus too much on the destination; we not only make missteps along the way, but don't even recognize the progress that we indeed ARE MAKING.

Perhaps you have not lost all the weight you want to yet, but maybe you are sleeping better & have more energy during the day. Possibly your mood has improved, your blood pressure is dropping, or maybe your blood sugars are stabilizing.

Sometimes, just sometimes, progress may be simply be NOT REGRESSING.

Celebrate any and all of these victories, as well as all of the positive new habits you are forming, or negative habits you are breaking. Remember, "great things are done by a series of small things brought together" - Vincent Van Gogh

Move always

Love yourself

Exceed Expectations
