This Sparked Me!

Instead of thinking about how much weight I have to lose and how much time it will take, I now set only one small, daily goal first thing in the morning. I write it in my journal so I don't forget and make it official, then I only focus on this goal for the day. I set a different one the next day.

MORE INFORMATION:
This forces me to only focus on today and to take it one goal, one step at the time.

    I actually find writing in my blog helps me get through the day. So I know how you feel emoticon
