I Loved this concept from my reading this morning and had to share. The author was sharing how problems are REALLY opportunities, if we choose to be the eagle..

Think about this....

Turbulent winds make an eagle soar higher!

When the winds are rough, it carries an eagle UP.

This allows the eagle with it's sharp eyes a larger view, a larger perspective, to see what it couldn't before.

If you've been following me for awhile you KNOW I'm big on setting goals.

But why?

I'll tell you....

It's NOT because goals should be a happiness target. 🎯

It's NOT because I have some belief that you'll be happy when you reach this or that goal. 🙅🏻

>> Goals are there to illicit GROWTH. <<

I don't think I had a CLUE when I joined this crazy little Beachbody business how BIG of a difference it makes to have a COMMUNITY of like minded individuals. 

I pretty much KNOW when I meet a fellow coach, we are going to jive. 👯

At LEAST the coaches attracted to this team. ;)

I appreciate the days I'm running errands and driving around a lot, or doing more around the house. BECAUSE..... it gives me a chance to get in extra business reading. 📚#audibleisthebest

Right now I'm digging this book.

There was a time in my life when I couldn't see myself ever loving exercise.

I thought people who actually liked working out were just crazy, or lying. Lol.

I just assumed everyone saw it like me. That you exercise because you know you should, not because you actually like it.

This just makes so much sense to me... It's the revolution in fitness I think! 

The Challenge Du Jour schedule that is. 😉🙌🏼

I know, I know, I can't shut up about it. 😎 I think it's just something that has been there for awhile, but I don't know WHY I haven't taken advantage of it?? 

There's a sort of excitement and anticipation each day that...

I've always been inspired by Martin Luther King.

So many great quotes from MLK, but the one that impacts me the most would be this-

"If you can't fly, then run. If you can't run, then walk. If you can't walk, then crawl. But whatever you do you have to keep moving forward."

Have you ever put something off, and when you finally stopped delaying and just took ACTION you realized there was no valid reason to justify the delay?

Well...... here's a little random story.

I may be a planner, but I really value spontaneity, and the excitement that comes with switching things up and doing something DIFFERENT. 

I have committed to one program after another for awhile now. 

There's so much science and wisdom in how these programs are put together- it's been GREAT knowing I'm working with the best-of-the-best world class fitness trainers. 

BUT - I've decided...

Saw this and had to share. 

It stands out to me because I can reflect on several instances in my life where it felt like God wasn't listening to my prayers. 

Things that didn't go as planned. Hard experiences, delays, surprises, what not. 

But looking back...

Gosh I just LOVE Arizona.

Walking out off Costco and immediately I felt a SURGE of gratitude.

I can't believe I'm lucky enough to live here!!!!

I moved here with such high expectations. And ya know what? It's been even BETTER than I hoped for.

The time has come, my friends, for people all around the country to get paid for working out and drinking Shakeology. 

Yes, yes, I'm talking about the Health Bet. 😉💃🏼

Here's how it works...

Being here has me in a reflective mood. 

Ya know, I didn't grow up wanting to work and be a career woman. 

I was the little girl who proudly declared "when I grow up I want to be a MOM". 

That has always been, in my mind, the GREATEST work a woman could have. #familyiseverything 

I just wanted to lose some weight after my third baby. I found some AMAZING tools...

Can New Years be my favorite holiday? 

I just LOVE this chance to reflect on where I'm going in life, what's working for me, and what ISN'T working for me. 

And to see soooo many people determined and committed to set goals, be better, and intentionally take on life --- It's just so...... magical! 🔮🦄......
