That can be the hardest thing to do! But afterwards.... you gain strength, you gain a new ability to proceed forward greater than you were before!
Diligence
Wisdom
Strength
Patience
I will use a couple of examples: I've been trying to save money and plan a future with my current boyfriend (such things like: marriage, family, etc.). With that comes buckling down with my financial budgeting. ... cutting coupons, no impulse buying, not eating out so much... These are some things that I have had to take a "first step" in. After taking that first initial step... the other steps become easier, and if not easier, I feel strengthened and more ready to take on the next challenge. I haven't perfected it yet, but my boyfriend and I will cook together, and when we sit down to eat, we point out how much it "cost" us to make dinner in comparison to eating out to Whataburger or IHOP etc. It encourages us that our choices are working for the good of our budgeting.
Working out is another challenge that I think a lot of us face everyday. I love to workout because of how I feel afterwards, ...rejuvenated, energetic, alert. Taking that "first step" is the hardest part. Just the other day, I "made" myself workout on the wii fit plus for 30 minutes.... I loved it so much I wanted to keep going, but I was running out of time.
So I ask you what challenges are you facing?
What first steps do you need to take?
Take a challenge and "take the first step"
