- Evelyn, how have you been?
Here are My Do's and Don'ts of Goal Setting
Goal achievement, especially when it comes to health and fitness, can be a mystery. Most of us have no trouble with Step 1 (Setting the Goal). Setting a goal is the easy part, it's those other steps that can be a puzzle. But you CAN turn achieving your goals into a science with the right strategies. Here are a few of our favorites:
DO create a plan. DON’T wait for "someday" to roll around.
Setting the goal is just the first step. Know where you’re going, what resources you’ll need, who can help and – most importantly – what Plan B is when life throws a monkey wrench into Plan A.
DO start small. DON’T focus on too many things at once.
Try focusing on one goal at a time. Use a small goal that you know you can do each day for the next two weeks, like getting up without the snooze or drinking eight cups of water. Build that first habit to boost your confidence and pick up speed.
DO write it down. DON’T forget to give yourself a deadline.
Deadlines turn wishes into goals. The act of writing down your goal is powerful enough to keep you committed and focused. Better yet, find a visual that represents your goal or how your life will be different. Seeing it makes it seem more possible.
God bless you and have a GOOD week:)

- Hi Evelyn,
Enjoy this spiritual nourishment:
Isaiah 60:1
Arise, shine
For your light has come
and the glory of the Lord is
risen upon you
Confession
I am arising
I am arising and shinning
I am arising from obscurity into limelight
I am arising from failure to success
I am arising from rejection into acceptance
I am arising from sickness and disease into health and healing
I am arising from situation and circumstances into a new life
I am arising because my light has come

- Why not become exceptional?
There are enough people in this world who refuse to take personal responsibility, shy away from volunteering and try to do as little as possible.
To be exceptional is to make a statement that you will be the very best that you can be.
Life is NOT a dress-rehearsal. Find your niche. Become exceptional. Be the best you can be at something. You owe it to yourself.
Tip-toeing through the tulips of life from birth till death is a waste of the talent that lies within you. If you develop the art of being exceptional then that is what you will be - exceptional. Are you up to the challenge?
Until next time...

- Hey Evelyn, just showing you some love by giving you some smart weight loss tips. Here you go:
5 ways to Boost your Metabolism and Lose More Weight
Do you realize that you can lose a ton of weight just by changing the timing and speed in which you eat and exercise? There may be habits that you’re accustomed to that have a serious monkey wrench in your weight loss plan. Let’s pull the monkey wrench out! Adopt these new habits until they come as easy to you as tying your shoe:
1. Eat more slowly; it takes approximately 20 minutes for your brain to realize that your stomach is full. When you eat too fast, you could be full and not even know it! So make a more conscious effort to eat slowly. Here is a great way to make yourself eat slower: never let there be food on your fork when there is food already in your mouth. As you learn to eat slower, you’ll greatly appreciate the texture and flavor of your food instead of concentrating on the next bite you’re going to take.
2. Never eat past the point of being full. All food eaten past fullness will be stored as fat which contributes to weight gain. Don’t pre-eat (eating in anticipation of not eating later on in the day) this contributes to weight gain as well.
3. Eat every 2-3 hours. Keep your metabolism all fired up by eating small meals and healthy snacks every few hours through out your day. You must always plan ahead and have that healthy snack on hand so you will not be tempted by the junk food all around you. Never wait until you are starving to eat – this can cause you to overeat at meal time (which makes you gain even more weight).
4. Challenge your muscles. Building muscle is one of the best ways to boost your metabolism. For every pound of muscle you gain that is many more extra calories that you burn off naturally!
5. Exercise in the morning. When you exercise in the morning you can elevate your resting metabolic rate, which allows you to burn more calories as you sit, stand and walk around doing normal stuff!
Metabolism is simply the process of your body turning food into energy. You can make this easy on your body by adopting the habits above and making them a part of your everyday lifestyle. Nurture and respect your body and its metabolism, and your body will thank you with vibrant energy and faster weight loss!
P.S.
It's great having you here, I love your blog (nice work). Invite your friends to join our club too, and have a great day today.
Love,
Bon
