So true it starts with our will to change. Like you said we have to want to change and put on our blinders and focus on making that change we are seeking for. I think some obstacles we may face is trust. Do we trust we will be disciplined enough to go through with the change because we tried before and we failed, so we let that get in our way. As you mention it takes energy mentally and emotionally. We give out so much during the day and our energy tank is so low which weakens our will. That’s why our spirit need to be strengthened or made stronger so that we operate in this order spirit, soul(mind, will, and emotions), and body. I’m talking to myself.

2023-03-29 15:07:10 +0000 UTCOne thing I have been needing to work on is exercise. I used to exercise all of the time up until I had a back injury a couple of years ago. I want to get back into working out, but I am afraid that I will injure myself, even though my back is much better, I always think about “tomorrow” and how I will magically just show up to the gym. But I know my confidence for doing so isn’t all there. It is an ongoing battle for me.

2023-03-29 14:41:49 +0000 UTCWe need to have grace for ourselves in our failures. We must quickly learn from our failures and not dwell there long. When I was young I would sit in my "mudpuddle of pity and and shame" when I let myself down. That never got me anywhere but wet, muddy and lonely. I eventually learned the concept of doable steps, baby steps. I've used that method coupled with grace for myself. You eat an elephant one bite at a time. Grace covered my willingness in the failure, and small doable baby steps helped me move to the goal. I've taught this to my children and many others over the years. Sis, Thanks for your wisdom and teaching!
