Focus

“Our thoughts create our reality -- where we put our focus is the direction we tend to go.” ~Peter McWilliams

I am ready to go in a new direction in my life. In other words, I need a new focus. Since moving to NYC my focus has been on having fun and seeing/experiencing everything I could. After 4 years of this constant go-go-go I am ready to take it easy and find a new focus. I kicked around starting a business, learning a new skill, taking voice lessons, but I realized that with every new idea I was avoiding what I really should be focusing on -- my health. So like many times before I am making a commitment to improve my health by making better food choices and adding more exercise. I am optimistic... but rightly hesitant. I've been unsuccessful in the past. I'm trying not to dwell on that and I am currently trying to change my feelings about this subject.

Little did he know, my friend Kirk helped me make this decision through one of his status updates: "Good health is your birthright, people. It's up to YOU to claim it." I am standing up to claim it!
