Not my typical Happy Thursday post but I woke up this morning thinking about cycles...

Specifically, breaking the cycles of anything that brings you down.
Habits = habitual for a reason = automatic.
Happening naturally until we decide to no longer 'do' that thing...the thing you probably don't want to do because it doesn't serve you or your higher self.

Our brains don't make changes quickly or easily. On top of that, our ego (is necessary) but was created to keep us in our comfort zone. It helps us justify those things in our mind...both sort of working together against you - 2 strikes if u will.

We have to make the conscious decision to break out...do something different. Recognize when it's happening & say "NO" in your brain, then program it accordingly. We are all growing & none of us are perfect, so it's not surprising that we have ups and down.

I believe we all want to be better humans. Again, it's mental work and a choice...has to start WITHIN you (& me)! ✌️

Huh, maybe we ARE all vibing together! I was just saying to myself this morning..."Self, you need to start eating a proper breakfast each morning, along with taking your Dr. Zelenko regime (Quercitin, D3, zinc and Vitamin C) on a regular basis!" I work out 3 times a week for an hour w/ a trainer and she doesn't go easy on me! I am strong and in pretty good shape for 77 and I want to stay that way! Also, my husband and I are hosting a 17 yr old exchange student from Italy this year, so we need our wits about us for sure!

Focusing on all the good things in life that we have been blessed with and trying to keep the vibes high.....a definite challenge these days, but not impossible, ESPECIALLY with this awesome AU family helping each other to grow! WE CAN TAKE A LICKING, BUT WE KEEP ON TICKING! I'm sure I'll be hearing from the Timex lawyers now about "infringements" of some kind.....! Happy Thursday, y'all.....the best is yet to come!
