The Happy News

Setting your Intentions for 2013

Happy people don't make resolutions for the new year... they state their intentions and set goals and make plans for accomplishing their goals.
Here's a great way to give yourself the best chance of making your 2013 goals a reality:
First write down what you want. This is your goal.
Next jot down 3 reasons why it would be worth it to you to have your goal.
Finally list 9 action steps that you are willing to commit to that will move you toward achieving your goal. That's it! Oh yea, don't forget to actually do your action steps! No matter what some people say “thinking about it isn't the same as doing it!!!”

I have set goals for 2013 in a couple different areas of my life for 2013. My personal goal is to exercise and to lose the rest of my excess weight. It would be worth it to me to continue to improve my health, to set a good example for other people in my life and to complete what I started in 2010 when I lost 92 lbs. My action steps are as follows:
  1. start 12/28/12 doing yoga 4 times a week
  2. keep a food journal, weigh in weekly
  3. eat 3 vegetables and 1 fruit with my evening meal
  4. stop eating at 7 p.m.
  5. walk on my breaks when I'm at the office
  6. reward myself with a new outfit when I lose 25 lbs
  7. add some strength training to my exercise routine after I have completed 4 weeks of yoga



January Avon Special (Campaign 2 and 3)

Moisture Therapy provides wonderful relief for skin that is exposed to the cold temperatures, frigid winds and dry indoor air during the winter months. Some of my customers who are diabetic use the “extra strength cream” on their feet and have had their doctors compliment them on keeping their feet in such good shape. ( Additional tip if you know anyone who is diabetic encourage them to read - “The End of Diabetes: The Eat to Live Plan to Prevent and Reverse Diabetes” by Dr. Joel Furhman)
