Jethsel's Start of the Week Habit v48 5 STEPS

I was thinking of what to write for you today when I remember this movie from Star Cinema in 2008, “My Big Love”. I don't think you've seen it but there's one thing that i'd like to share with you from that movie which we can definitely apply in our daily lives.

The lead character, Toni Gonzaga, a gym fitness instructor, shares 5 steps to her clients to attain their Goal (in losing weight):

Step 1: Set your goal – do something you want to do, not out of revenge to someone or any form of vendetta, but do it for yourself.

Step 2: Start today – Today not tomorrow.

Step 3: No shortcuts – You really has to work hard for it.

Step 4: Get motivated – look for someone or something that would inspire you to achieve your goal.

Step 5: Be happy – be happy with what you are doing. nothing else makes hard work easy if you love doing it for yourself.

The steps mentioned were not only applicable for loosing weight, but in any other goals you've set for yourself. You can actually complement this with the SMART goal-setting – that is Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-Bound.

The movie was not just fun and laughter, but shares a good lessons worth living by – not only about losing weight and being healthy – but an important lesson about “Being Happy" and working hard for your dreams.

I’ve done some of my goals following the steps mentioned above. Make it yours too. ;)

When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trails to make you strong, enough sorrow to k...

Hope is the Thing with Feathers

by Emily Dickinson Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without the words, And never stops at all, And sweetest in the gale is heard; And sore must be the storm That could abash the little bird That kept so many warm. I've heard it in the chilliest land And on the strangest sea; Yet, never, in extremity, It asked a crumb of me. *** I first encounteres this poem in grade school. I won't forget Row 2 and the rest of my Rowmates every time I remember this poem. :) They say that to be without hope surely means to have given up on life. Many people live in extremely challenging situations, leading hard lives in appalling conditions. What keeps people going in such circumstances is the glimmer of hope that things can change. This is all I got too. My faith has been challenged and my confidence has been put through the wringer Yet I know someday, it'll make perfect sense. Hope is a free gift. It exists for all of us. All we must do is not c...
