Promise Yourself
February 26th, 2010
To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.
To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet.
To make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.
To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true.
To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own.
To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.
To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you meet.
To give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others.
To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.
To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud word, but in great deeds.
To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you are true to the best that is in you.

These days we ALL need a pep up…seems the stress level is at an all time high for many of my clients and friends. Being optimistic isn’t easy! Most of us tend to focus on the negatives associated with our lives, and our bodies. We need to JUST STOP IT!!! Have you considered that everything you do today, think about, or even say is related to your future?
If you are working to change your physique, remember every one of your thoughts and actions is collectively part of the end result. Make it happen. DO it now!
