How to know when it is time to move on

SOOOO you are probably wandering why I have chosen this cute photo of a glass of milk and cookies? I will tell you why.

First a glass of milk and cookies represents to me comfort food. Ahhhh....love sitting down to this little delight. (I am a fitness person with a few vices, this is one of them) but sometimes that comfort food gets in the way of my true goals and intentions of staying at a peak performance weight and keeping my body fed of high octane fuel for my engine!

For today, I decided to continue to review my notes from Les Brown's class and I found a quote: "when it is time to move on, and you don't, then life will move on you".

Seriously, isn't that true? Yup, it is.
When you are stuck, or know you are doing and or being something that doesn't resonate with your soul (like a career path you are currently in that you don't love, or continuing to try to make something work, when it just isn't...forcing it)....if you really watch what happens....LIFE will move in if you don't take the initiative to move yourself.

When LIFE moves in, then you must respond, because most of the time, if LIFE hadn't moved in, and the situation did not receive a curve ball, you would have stayed stuck....good example, getting let go of a job you just didn't like...but you did it for the money, or it used to serve you, and maybe you changed, and it just became something you loathed instead of something you loved.


When life happens, the immediate question that comes to my mind is, now what?
If you can BREATHE for a second, and start to look for the gems in the situation...
Now is an opportunity to step aside and become aware and examine what is next for you. A time to reflect on the new possibilities that are here, reach inside and find your passion, and take a new path...a fork in the road has arrived...how fun!

This means change and adventure! A lot of peeps are afraid of change...but if you have the attitude that change is good for the growth of "me"...then hipp hipp hooray!
