Hi Kelly,

Every time you comment I always think “wow, we have so much in common”. As a mom sometimes I feel it is a challenge to be the one that knows where everything is, the family schedule, what groceries need to be gotten, what dr. appts are next — yet still be detached enough to just go with the flow…. I have always been my toughest critic and have gotten BETTER slowwwwwly.

Last year setting spirituality as my intention definitely helped me. I gained MUCH better awareness of my intuition. I also am finally surrendering and just accepting things as they are and KNOWING that whatever happens — happens for a reason and I can grow from. I had a meeting today that even a year ago would have made me VERY upset. I was hoping it would be the answer but instead it closed a door and I guess in some ways would be considered a “set back”. Instead I said “Wow, THANK YOU Universe – I know now this is NOT the way to go — thanks for making it so clear”. I can take a step back, re-assess and be detached because my emotions aren’t tied up in “it SHOULD have gone this way”. It feels very good and healthy and now to apply this to ALL of my life!

There’s always growth and learning to be done. It’d be pretty boring if we were stagnant! Being aware of WHAT you want to change in order to be happy is the key to making it a reality. I am happy to hear of how you were with weight loss — your approach definitely equals success and if you can be kind to yourself in that way it can translate to other parts of your life.

There’s no doubt in my mind Kelly that you will be a best selling author. I’ll be first in line for a copy! It doesn’t have to be next month or next year…. you are always moving forward and that is how to reach your goal and happiness in all areas of your life.

Thanks so much for your comment and for visiting.
Love, xo
Jenny

I am right with you Jenny on making intentions rather than resolutions. Setting high and perfect goals for yourself which don’t allow for adjustments or slip-ups is the surest way to ‘fail’ at anything. When I was trying to peel off weight I found the most important thing was just to stay in the moment and keep my eye on the end goal. if I didn’t exercise as much as I should in a week I would take note of it, but let it go and move on. Changing my ways was the most important thing. This year I am trying to live by my own intuitive guidance and relenquish the need to know everything and have it “all figured out”. It’s something I find very difficult, but I know it’s a crucial ingredient for happiness and my future success.

So many great links here, thanks. Wishing you all the best in 2009.
