Day 39--welcome new year!!

This picture is on the Successories calendar that I have in my exercise room.   I thought the message for the month of January was perfect.   "Some Excel because they are destined to, most excel because they are determined to.   This year I am feeling determined.  I finally feel on the right path in that I know what I am doing and have a plan, I feel that this year is promising.   Last year I had heard of the idea of having a one word goal for the year.  I chose success for 2014.  It was a successful year.   I had many bumps and hurdles but kept jumping back in the game.  The definition of success for me is to never give up.  I never did.  My goals maybe starting the same as they were last year.  But I am stronger in resolve to achieve them.  The one word goal I am choosing for this year is FOCUS.   I tend to get distracted extremely easily.  Focus is something I am working on to be organized and accomplished in each day.  Focus felt like a great word to be my theme/goal for the year.  

What is your one word goal/theme for this year??

I am making a vision board today.  Check out the Challenge post to see it!

"Every time you start to eat, check your hunger level.  Ideally, aim for around a level of 3 to begin eating.  If you are at a 5 or above, you are not biologically hungry.  If you are at 2 or lower, you're likely over hungry and at risk for overeating."  Scale and comments taken from the book "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
