Good morning good people. As promised in the last post, I decided to bring my readers into my plans (fitness wise) for 2017. I did stop calling it new year resolution since last year because it has been researched and known that resolutions don't last, on another note now I think the way we do our resolutions is what makes it pre-termed most times. I mean what do you say of plans that are made hurriedly in the wake of a new year for some selfish reasons; or I decided to jump into a plan because I am trying to take a revenge; or I am even angry at myself and that's what informed my decisions, such plans must be truncated immediately I get even with any of the above negativity. I will like to reiterate today that a plan,  resolution or creative intention (whatever you decide) that would work and successful must be SMART  (click to know what that's about).

It doesn't matter how good the plan or idea, nothing will work for you if you don’t believe in it. And more importantly, nothing will work if you don’t believe in yourself.  YOU ARE WORTH THE EFFORT! Find above the words for week 3 of our challenge, I really love this motivation statement because I have been there.

I saw this header somewhere   and I felt it is a better word than New Year's Resolutions . Resolutions look so outdated and sounds more like a failed plan even before it began. When I was much younger, I had always heard adults make resolutions that I see them break at the slightest chance. They could work but it looks like many forget about it and that is why it never worked for many. Maybe we can help ourselves out on ways to have better intentions or decisions and keep at it till we achieve them. Mindfulness   Mind Over Matter : This is the key to achieving goals at any time, it is a strong and conscious desire to be on top of the situations at every check. You can get it if you want it so badly. Losing weight or quitting an unhealthy diet for example, nothing should occur in error. There is a dire need to be fully conscious of your environment at all times to really achieve your goals. You can make some decisions that could help in putting these goals r...

I write a lot about my physical fitness but because I love being fit on all sides of life, I am writing about Dreams today. Not the ones you have when you are sleeping but those that you do have in your full consciousness. We sometimes refer to them as 'ambitions'. These are conscious thoughts of what we wish we will become sometimes in the farthest or nearest future. Thoughts that fantasize us a lot and most often we fashion our lives towards such dreams, we walk and work towards realizing such dreams in our daily pursuit and struggles. I have had lots of dreams in my little years of life, from marrying an IT expert ( I did not pursue that but it came ), to having 6 kids ( ouch! ), to becoming a superman like " batman or batgirl "( lol ), to living in a big house and having a large kitchen ( wow ), to becoming a part of the Sesame Street Crew and the dreams are endless What are your dreams? Have they been realizable? How much effort are you puttin...

On my schedule of living healthy, today is "Tiny Tuesday", hoping to keep it as tiny as possible. I had an early breakfast today and also kept it tiny too. It's fiber (beans) and I believe there are some science behind taking such in the morning too. I will search that out and post later. Tiny Tuesday is about having the lowest daily caloric count for the week. Today (25/08/2015) is one of those days, I already have a fiber-filling breakfast  and I hope nothing else out of proportion comes my way till dinner. I hope to always keep it as tiny as possible all-Tuesday long.  Join me friends (look to the graphics and make that your standard for the day, lmao)
