This life changing journey you are on is not easy if it were we would not be here.

    Just above the turtle pace? He beat the hare in Aesop's fable didn't he? Listen to the fable: "slow and steady wins the race"!

    You can totally do this. Just stay focused on WHY you want to change the way things are. Try this, start a dream board. Get something you can put on your wall in your bedroom--make sure that it is somewhere you will see it EVERY DAY. This can be as simple as poster paper or even a cork board. Then, get some magazines or print stuff from the internet and tape/pin/glue/whatever your dreams up there. It can be photos, numbers, sayings ANYTHING THAT WILL INSPIRE YOU to keep going. Feel free to add me if you would like.
