I am sitting here tracking the Boston Marathon…… checking on Ali as she runs. And I can’t help but reflect back…….
Two years ago april 15th Ali became the First Female to ever win the Biggest Loser, and 2 and a half years ago, Ali and I were 100 lbs heavier (each) and trying out for a crazy television show! My what a difference a couple of years make!
I can’t help but think isn’t life fabulous! Better yet aren’t we as human beings awesome? I mean ALL of us! God’s creations! Capable of amazing things. And yet sometimes we forget.
Not that it’s easy to always remember. When I was 53 and weighing in at 261, the last thing I could imagine was losing 100 lbs. Or rather I should say the last thing I imagined was working out for 8 hours a day on a t.v. show! And I NEVER would have imagined Ali running the Boston Marathon! Ain’t life grand?! ANYTHING is possible! Where there is a will and patience you can go out and create the life you want!
You don’t have to have dreams of running the Boston marathon or even dreams of losing weight….but whatever your dreams are, you CAN have them! The evidence is all around you! Just start focusing on what you want and why you CAN….. leave the boring failure thoughts out of the game!
At first when you are ‘dream creating’ it does seem like a ‘game’. You might feel like you are koo-koo for thinking you can have your dreams……but guess what…..as you keep thinking you can and you gather evidence of why it is possible..and do everything you can towards it……. And WA-LA! You’ll be running your ‘marathon’ or shaking that cute bootie or making that cash!
Bottom line: YOU CAN………….will you?
