Focusing on YOUR dreams

For starters… why don’t we get FOCUSED on what it is we really want. I think much of what we *think* we want, we actually more feel like we NEED.

Yet this can be scary, how can we realistically chase after not only our weight loss dreams but also our far fetched Cinderelle meets MVP of the world series kinda dreams? 

And yet ladies, we truly believe that we can AND SHOULD be attaining the unattainable. And not just in one area of our lives. but everywhere. And when the inevitable other shoe drops, we make it mean that we’re a failure, because “LOOK at how well everyone else is able to do it all!!!” Psssst….I’ll share with you a secret–they aren’t.

My 3-part solution:

1. Give yourself the win in the places you are kicking butt. Are you an awesome mom? Wife? Partner? Friend? Are you a savvy businesswoman with a rockin’ career? Do you have an eye for fashion? This is about ACKNOWLEDGING where you are awesome and then internalizing gratitude for that. Feel the power of you when it comes to these things. You’re incredible…in the exact places you focus your energy. (High five!)
2. FOCUS on a SINGLE thing you want to be incredible at. Get focused on 1-2 things max. I think we all tend to juggle 14 things at one time and this can be dangerous because then we are not giving those things the attention they deserve. Have 2 goals, meet them, celebrate, move forward. We CAN do everything we ever dreamed of just maybe not all at one time. 
3. Focus on the things you can control. We can not fix the fact that if you stare at cake you gain 4 pounds and your BFF can eat 7 pizzas and be a stick. What we CAN do is figure out what works for our bodies, our goals, and our lives. If we compare ourselves to others then we are comparing ourselves to what we think others are doing. You can not control what everyone else does but you can control what YOU do and how you react in any given situation.
