Most people who know me know that I am a pretty direct person and I value honesty and transparency. I came across a quote yesterday that I think is really powerful and it has been on my mind since I read it. "If you always do what you always did, you'll always get what you always got". It's seems like such a simple statement but I can't even describe the impact it has had on me. I know in the past this statement has been made to me in some shape or form from many people in my life - to my brother and sister who I know are reading this and saying....I told you that a long time ago....I get it now. It's not that I didn't want to take your advice when you said it to me the first time in whatever way you said it to me - I think I just needed to hear it/read it from someone who I didn't have an emotional connection to. It also helps that I am making a conscious effort to take charge and steer my life in the direction I want it to go.
Ok....enough of the deep stuff! I received a funny email from a friend not too long ago and I thought you would all enjoy it so here it is:
"Dear God, my prayer for 2011 is for a fat bank account & a thin body. Please don't mix these up like you did last year" AMEN!
