Daily Inspiration - Be congruent

Be congruent. 

 

Is there a difference between what you say you want and what you do? For example, do you say you want to maintain your weight, but then spend your afternoon snacking? 

Being congruent involves aligning your desires with your actions. It's hard, and it is not a skill you can master over night. Congruency is a worthy goal, however, and will greatly improve with practice. 

Action for the day: For today, practice being congruent. If you say you are tired and need to rest, don't go out dancing.

I printed this and posted it in my cube as a good reminder for those "days" when I just seem to snack away.  Thanks for posting Jill!
