The Kingdom of Magic

Setting a new goal, can start tomorrow or maybe next week. 

Until then, let's savour and relish the journey you've taken to get to where you stand today. 

Because starting each new goal, takes courage and sometimes you are just feeling your way in the dark.

but before you know it, you gain momentum, and Fireworks light your imagination.

There are like-minded on the same pathway, and you stay together because you all Believe!






And although, you might look different from each other....you really are all the same inside.

 It might be difficult at times but you keep the faith as you are surrounded by "your people".

And the best part of all, is that you get encouragement from the most unexpected places.

                       

Medals are FANTASTIC but may each day following also be full of Magic.

For some fun entertainment Downtown Disney
For some great pasta Portabello
For a good rest Port Orleans Resort - French Quarter

Pacing

Pacing your accomplishments could be one of the hardest things in our journey. When we want to move ahead, it should happen, right? Wrong!

For some, focusing on moving ahead can be a battle that takes all our resources, all our time, and oftentimes all our humour.

Can we lose the "extra 10, 20, 30" pounds we've (oops!) accumulated, by a quick-fix remedy? Some magical turning back of the clock. But is our over-the-top remedy of drastic calorie reduction sustainable? Can we commit to a half-marathon, or the "Goofy" (January 2012, Disneyland) without lacing up our runners on a (very) regular basis?
 

Each step we take to "get there", needs to focus on the joy of being where we are. As Joe Vitale said in The Key, "How much good can you stand?"; enjoy and appreciate the present moment, because the next one is on its way. I believe that when we know that each little goal gets us to the BIG one, we can celebrate each plateau along the path. Don't sabotage yourself by giving up. We need to realize that our momentum may ebb and flow but always we are carried forward in the direction of our choice.

Life experience has taught me to balance and be patient. It might take longer but it will so be worth the wait. And then one day, you're sitting cross-legged in your yoga class and you surprise even yourself when you are able to lift you own body weight.
