So we have decided that we need to make a change in our life. We have gotten rid of the fear that says "we can't." We are now determined to do this no matter what it takes. But now, we need some...... 

If you are anything like I can sometimes be, you are thinking...Motivation??? What in the world is that??

Motivation... a motivating force, stimulus, or influence (as a drive or incentive)!!

I will be the first to admit that getting yourself motivated is probably the hardest part. You can make up your mind all day that you know what you want. But actually putting your thoughts, feelings and desires into motion is a totally different thing. You say, well... I dont want to go walk today or I am too tired or I really need to see this tv show or its so much easier to just grab a pint of ice cream from the freezer than it is too stand and make a salad! We have to get out of that mind set and JUST DO IT! Don't let pure laziness get in the way of your motivation. Find something that motivates you. Whether it be an uplifting book, your skinniest pictures on the fridge, keeping a journal, finding a friend to be accountable to.. just whatever will help you to get motivated! Go above and behind your norm. In order to make a change in your life, you have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone. So your challenge is... to MAKE UP YOUR MIND, HAVE NO FEAR, BE DETERMINED, AND MOTIVATE YOURSELF!! You CAN do it!!!
