Are You Worthy?

It is the last day of April. How do you feel about your performance this month? Did you do your best to move closer to that goal or goals that you set for yourself? How valuable is it to you? Are you worthy of receiving what ever it is that you want? That is an easy question to answer, right? Or is it? For example, you have a goal to drop 30 lbs but you skip workouts and eat too many empty calorie food types. You stay up late at night and do not sleep very long. You do not drink very much water and eat very little fruit or veggies. You consume large amounts of alcohol and soda yet every day you think you are moving closer to your goal. So in this example, I know you are worth it yet you have not made the proper lifestyle changes that will accelerate you towards that 30 lbs weight loss. Let's look at another example of you having a goal to pay off debts and save money. Everyday you go to work and do a fantastic job. You receive compensation for the fantastic value you provide and then something happens. You get your compensation and then you have to pay bills. After you pay bills then what ever is remaining has to go somewhere. It goes to new clothes, entertainment, gambling, or anything else that you see and want. So, you are worthy of paying off debts and saving money yet you have not built the habit to saving and delayed gratification. Both of these examples show that you have to learn to control something. That something is your action(s). You are worthy of all the things that you want in your life; however to receive them, you must be will to make decisions that are very difficult. It is in this decision-making that you grow. You learn to overcome instant gratification in exchange for your long-term success. Please keep this in mind as you head into the month of May. Keep it real with yourself and realize that everyday you are alive you have the opportunity to change, to grow, and to dominate the day! Make it a FANTASTIC day!
