The Time Is Now

I will begin my journey towards changing my life tomorrow. Saturday, Sept. 16, 2006.

I guess I had an aha moment last Saturday when Maria Sharapova won the US Open, her 2nd Grand Slam.

Witnessing this win & her infectious happiness afterward, unexpectedly had me once again face to face with the truth that I wasn't living the life I thought I would be. The life that I know I could be living. I will explain the "Sharapova Connection" in my next post.

All this past week, I have been walking around with a sense that this really could be it. The time when I could really do it! My days felt different as if I sensed that things were coming into place.

Then today, I had a unexpected heart to heart talk with my employer; the woman whose kids I nanny for. It was amazing really. She talked about her life and I about mine and how I truly want to change the way I'm living it. I'm not quite sure how it started but we talked and talked and talked. Deep stuff. Afterwards I felt like I could count on her support and again felt like things were lining up.

The only way to live the life I want is by changing the way I am living it now. Makes sense right?

I need a Major Life Overhaul. I need to make changes in the many aspects of my life.

I have to determine my goals by laying out what I want from my life and plan what I need to do in order to have it.

As I begin, I will set Weekly Goals and determine what I need to do everyday in order to achieve them.

The First Two Weeks will Focus on My Goal to Lose Weight & Get Fit - To Have a Physically Fit Body That Allows Me to Enjoy My Life to the Fullest, To Experience Things I Have Yet To & Long For. (I will get into this more in a post to come.)


WEEK ONE:

Dance Every Morning & Eat Veggies Every Day


Ciao for Now.
Maria
