New Year Resolution 2015

When the new year hit, I had goals, I was keeping busy. I was running at least 2 miles a day (slowly), trying to build up to 3. I was doing everything I could think of to lose my 30 pounds of baby weight. Mostly I was getting frustrated (hey, I still am). But the thing is, I need to quit focusing on the number. I need to get some new priorities, it really is JUST a number. If I'm focused on being healthy the rest will fall away. What I really need to do instead of obsess is....

I need to love on that perfect baby and be happy that I'm his mother. 

I need to chase these other two other kids, while they still want to be chased. 

I need to quit wishing for things to be different and live in the present. I have so many things to be grateful for, and I need to enjoy them while they are still here. 

By reading a few books lately, I have really started to understand how negative I am. If I have to choose one goal this year, I want to be more positive. This isn't going to be easy, but with so much to improve on, it is possible. I tend to dwell on how much I need to improve on, instead of celebrating how far I've come. And trust me, I have come a long way. 

Positive affermations is where I have started. I say things to myself, out loud, whenever I'm in my bathroom. 

Already I feel more love and gratitude for my life. I challenge you to do the same, tell yourself just how beautiful you are. Remind yourself that you are amazing. Tell yourself, that God made you and he doesn't make mistakes. Make time to love on yourself. I'm making a positive change this year, are you?!?
