BE CONGRUENT.

Be congruent.
Is there a difference between what you say you want and what you do? For example, do you say you want to maintain your weight, but then spend your afternoon snacking?
Being congruent involves aligning your desires with your actions. It's hard, and it is not a skill you can master over night. Congruency is a worthy goal, however, and will greatly improve with practice.
Action for the day: For today, practice being congruent. If you say you are tired and need to rest, don't go out dancing.

Congruency is more easily achieved than you think. If the desires change then the actions follow. It is the desires that must be analyzed, understood and then changed. There where the work is...0
