Motivation

Motivation - The general desire or willingness of someone to do something.

I have little. I'm not sure why, but I have been a terrible "funk" since Thanksgiving. I think a combination of stress, disappointment, and exhaustion has just beaten me down. I was anxious for the Holidays to lift my spirits, but this year's festivities were not as jolly as I had hoped.

My goals for this year are to get in shape and get every aspect of my life organized. I know it is still the first month of 2012 (barely), but I am an "instant-results" kind of girl. Although, I must say that my health goal is actually going well. 1.5 weeks = 6lbs lighter, and I am honestly enjoying my diet! I have had some cheat days, but a girls gotta have something good every once and a while. I can't say so much for the organizational part. I want to establish routine and order for everything. Work. Budget. Meals. Household Chores. I haven't made any progress in these areas. I want so badly to be the organized, sane, woman who has everything together. And even if it kills me, I will get there. Some day.

I am sorry that I left you loyal readers hanging. Must have been my lack of motivation. I am trying to get my act together. I think I am just so overwhelmed, that instead of taking care of business, I am sitting and dwelling on every piece of the puzzle. Ed told to me to take it one step at a time, and he is right. I know I can do this; I don't even have children running around to add to the choas. God Bless those women who do and are still on top of it! You are a super heroes!

Today's post is just a quickie to let everyone know that I am still alive. I will leave you with some great words of wisdom that I am using to improve my outlook and attitude. I found this quote the other day, and it really stood out to me. I need to apply this a little more....
