Acknowledge. Manage. And....Move on!

Wow!  Watching the biggest loser I was half watching, half listening but my ears caught this phrase "acknowledge, manage, and move on" spoken by trainer, Bob Harper.



Then I stopped writing this post....not sure why.  But here I am attempting to write some new posts and I find this incomplete one.  Shall I finish?  Absolutely.  Interesting how things apply to your life in all different seasons. 

We can all wake up in a bad mood, have an off day, and off meal, just a brief fleeting moment of discouraging self talk.  But here's the deal, WE HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE IT!! I know! Who knew?  Every morning, I wake up and immediate think and VERBALIZE, "Today will be a great day!" And you know what?  95% of the time it is a great day.

Things can get out of control at home, you can have a stressful and looooong day at work but each and every person is capable of saying, "you know this isn't what I imagined today to be, BUT I can change how I react, how I handle this and MOVE ON!" Move on with a positive attitude, a different reaction; a reaction that will empower you over any situation,

Now, anyone reading this is probably thinking, "oh she's one of THOSE positive thinking, everything is roses person"  Actually no, quite the opposite.  However, I find that if I can channel the inner positive; and trust me this requires a lot of self talk, motivational quotes, often. I can find peace and find the positive in most every situation. 

My challenge to you, wake up and say "Today is going to be great!" say it as many times and as often as possible.  If you find yourself in a situation of self-doubt, becoming your own worst critic; remind yourself why you are doing what you're doing, what you're doing for someone else, and what your passion is.  Surround yourself with positive people, positive-speaking friends; these are the people who will build you up, and support your when you are stuck in those lows. 

Acknowledge these moments, manage them, and MOVE ON!  Continue to move forward, not backwards....you aren't going that direction.
