Food for thought!

It is very important to generate a good attitude, a good heart, as much as possible. From this, happiness in both the short term and the long term for both yourself and others will come.

~Dali Lama

I recite this everyday. (I have it printed out and displayed right on top of my desk at work) I stay focused on the tasks at hand, as I actually try to manifest a better and better attitude about my day. Hopefully this helped someone, I know it helps me!

Working it out!

Today is the start of my new workout regimen. I am hoping to make this regimen as easy to adhere to as possible. Having three kids, limited funds, and trying to workout is a difficult, but not impossible task. I read something profound that Michelle Obama said in an Essence article, she was stating how important it is for us ladies to stop and take care of ourselves. Working out is going to be my little treat. Hopefully I can be of encouragement to someone else in a similar boat.

Working out is not only for loosing weight, but more importantly it's for relieving stress, feeling good, and maintaining good eating habits. I'll check back in to tell you how day one went.
