Stop Shoulding on Yourself...

How often when you have those moments of "quiteness," where the cell phones are off, no checking emails and you are actually in a moment of quiet...guess in today's fast paced society that means when you are sleeping.
So before I go any further, feel compelled to let you know...you need those quiet moments in your life where you can reflect, imagine and envision...where you create your life future.  We get caught up in the moments of life, and we forget to take time to dream, before reading any further pull out your planner or cell phone, and create time to dream.  Imagine if you dedicated just, yes I said that word JUST (my major pet peeve minimizing word) set aside 20-30 per day to dream...create your future.  IMAGINE what you would create.  My challenge to you is do this, bare minimum of 2-3 days per week, and WOW could you create a life of whatever you wanted!!!
Stop reading...create time to dream..and wow!!  As Robin Sharma says, "Life's ultimate freedom is living life on our own terms."
With that in mind, back to "SHOULDING." We do that when we lay in bed and reflect on the days "I should have done...."  Well today is your wake up call, how long and how often do you wish to "should," draw the line in the sand, and eliminate regrets.  The beauty of what we get to do in life is create our days, to some extent, granted you cannot control everything, but at least create the foundation fo your days and life.
For health, kind of personal to me, I sadly see everyday Chronic conditions that were very much avoidable.  I cannot recall the source of the article, but I have read where 90% of the health care dollar is spent in the last 6 months of life for Chronic Avoidable conditions.  Just think, you have the choice to live your best life, by making better lifestyle choices.
Life does not come in a bottle..injection...some liquid...Life comes from inside of you.  You create YOU...instead of laying on the couch and thinking about exercising, get up TODAY, right now and start that program.  Instead of picking up the can of Pepsi, grab a bottle of water, instead of eating those few doritos, grab the apple.
I hear so often how people want to change, but yet we make it to complicated, big believer of simplicity and want to make it so you can WIN on each step, and of course have fun.
Homework, look back 3-5 years ago, and think, did you ponder on choosing different health choices, but did not, now think forward 3-5 years, imagine how you will be, will it be better or worse if you don't change?  Today is your wakeup call, start choosing to BE different today.
And this can go into your mental outlook, instead of choosing to be around those stinkin thinkin people, that continue to drag you down, and you have regrets associating with them, do what my wife did, she fired them from her life.  Just think when you release that negative person, it frees you and it frees them...and everyone wins.
Tonight, write down your dream time and pick 3 simple things you want to change in your life, and of course add regular Chiropractic Care!!
Choose to BE the best you...
