"Just do it!"

Ok so I committed to a few things for this year....I have been drinking more water but not as much as I should! That one is harder than I thought. One thing that I have been doing is my daily yoga!! It feels good to be doing it each day. So I completed day 5 last night. I am excited to see where this all goes, but more excited that I am doing what I said I would do! We all say lots of things that we want to do, but often let things prevent us from actually doing. I was too...so now I made a huge step forward and it feels great!

I think the hardest thing for me is that I think that whatever it is that I want to do will magically transform my life. So if I start doing it and it doesn't create the transformation or I don't feel the way I think I should then I have failed and why do it anyway? Does that make sense? So for me I have been telling myself that once I start my daily yoga and meditation I will suddenly feel better and will magically know my purpose in life! Something like that anyways....so that puts a lot of pressure on my goal. No wonder I didn't want to do!

So I finally realized this after some praying and pondering about why I was having difficulty doing what every fiber of my being was telling me to do! So whatever it is that you have been wanting to do but haven't for the same reason or any other reason, stop thinking about why you should do. "Just do it!"

update on goals for 2014

Ok, in my other blog I posted 10 goals for 2014. So far I am working on them, but I am little behind. I have only done yoga once. Why is it so difficult to start on our goals? I know that nothing will change if I don't change something! Insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting the same results right? Yet many of us struggles with this....so I decided that I would blog about my journey this year. More for myself, but I hope that some of you find it inspiring for whatever journey you are on.
          "The basis of your life is absolute freedom, the goal is joy, and the result of that perfect          combination is motion forward, or growth. Your goal is to find objects of attention that let your cork raise." -Abraham


Sounds so simple....yet with work, family, bills and all the in between we often lose focus on just enjoying life.  So I decided that this blog may be a good way to keep me focused on this. Right now I am thankful for the ability to express my thoughts and for the fact that I am at home enjoying a nice Sunday morning with my boys. Yesterday though I had trouble getting motivated....today I felt compelled to start this blog to chronicle my journal. So far I have been working on my patience with my children, I am drinking more water and I have been trying to meditate. I did do yoga on Friday morning and my goal for this week is to start my day with yoga and meditation each morning. Even if its just for 5 minutes. So I will post my challenges and my victories (no matter how small!) to keep myself on track. If you are starting a new goal this year I would love to hear how you are achieving it too!


If you need some motivation, check out some Abraham-hicks videos on youtube. Their books are good too, but the videos are free and very inspirational. It might just be what you need to hear or give you another outlook on something. Here is a link to one of their videos on deliberate creation and manifesting your dreams. Enjoy! love and peace, Gena
