~I'm on a journey - destination: UNKNOWN.~

You're making huge strides emotionally. Are you finally ready to believe in yourself? The stars urge you to break through old barriers and take a stand. When you support yourself, all other elements fall into place.

Wow, how powerful is that?!
I've been doing this coaching thing for a couple of weeks now and I am starting to have the veil lifted for me. Through my homework, I'm taking strides to be the person I want to be. I started making my vision board yesterday and I say it's coming along really well. Right now I only have the kinds of foods I want to eat on there (we're focusing mainly on my health), but there is more to come! When I was putting it together, I started getting excited about eating those foods (boneless, skinless chicken breast; asparagus; tomatoes; both red and green seedless grapes; whole grain bread; muffins; cheese; pears; kiwis). And this cleanse that I'm starting in January with Zach and Anna (the receptionist) in which I will eat only fruits and vegetables for a month, accompanied by bentonite and psyllium husk shakes daily, was making me apprehensive and fearful. But now, I'm actually looking forward to it because instead of focusing on the fact that I'm not going to be eating certain foods, I'm focusing on all the exciting fruits and vegetables that I normally don't have exposure to: eggplant, asparagus, leeks, starfruit, dragonfruit, durian {the edible fruit of a tree, Durio zibethinus, of the bombax family, of southeastern Asia, having a hard, prickly rind, a highly flavored, pulpy flesh, and an unpleasant odor}, papaya, mango, avacado, squash... and the list can go on! I'm excited to taste these foods, some for the first time, and to experiment with preparation. I can't wait!!!
I also made an affirmation which is really helping me:
I AM FULL OF ENERGY AND EMBRACE EVERY OPPORTUNITY FOR GROWTH.
It's pretty powerful stuff. I'm on a journey without a specific destination per se, but the journey itself is the lesson and the prize. I've stopped aiming for 'perfection' - I now aim for EXCELLENCE because there is always room for growth. I am excellent!!!
