The Friday High 5

February 21, 2014 · In: TMI

It’s a wonderful Friday! Here are some highlights from the week. I’m going to spend some time with girlfriends this weekend in San Diego! I miss the girls and SD so much! 

1. This beef bowl. This is the kind of stuff I order now at sushi restaurants! I miss yellowtail but this was great.

4. Jen from Intuitive Artists took some really cool new photos for the site. I’m trying to improve the visual experience here. These carpets were amazing. I want all of them. Here are some more on the About page. IMG_1968

5. I bought a really cool brush pen and learned how to scan and clean up/color hand written text this week! I love personalized anything so this is awesome. Thank you, Jessica from Coco and Mingo for the inspiration and pen recommendation!

It’s not pretending and it’s definitely not instant results.

It’s the moment you stop negotiating with yourself and start making decisions from who you already believe you are.

Saying “I’m a runner” doesn’t magically make you one, but it does change what you choose to do next-
the habits.

That’s how change actually sticks.

it becomes automatic. 

It’s literally the laziest way to accomplish any goal

These were just things I had to go through on the journey.

It’s why I was sad but at the same time understanding that everything always works out.

that’s the person I choose to be-

Someone who knows everything is going to be ok.

One day, I decided to stop letting my circumstances determine the outcomes that I wanted.

Dare I say it but I felt old too.

Then I just decided that, even though I was in this stage of life, I was still going to achieve my goals and have a body that I wanted.

I changed who I was on the inside.

I started telling myself that I was vibrant and beautiful and full of energy and life.

All the sudden I started to believe it.

I ate healthier automatically.

I lost over 20 pounds.
