It helps to know what you want from yourself and your life. I’m not always focused and purposeful, but when I am, affirmations help me. Here are some of my favorites:
- Small portions of good food satisfy me completely. (That sounds about right, doesn’t it?)
- I’m alive, alert, awake, joyous, and enthusiastic about being here. (Used to make my students say this to start the day!)
- I eat to live, not live to eat. (I use this one a lot…maybe not enough!)
- I’m a strong, sexy, sassy woman! (Well, it helps to think positively. hahahha)
- Wild women don’t get the blues!
What helps you get out of bed and make your day the best it can be?
Oh no- live to eat!!! Food is so gooood! Although with the heat this summer, making myself eat has been a challenge. So for right now, it’s eat to live. I can’t wait until it cools enough to enjoy food again!!
If the truth were told, I live to eat too. And I agree with you about how hard it is to eat in this heat. Sounds like a poem.
