Topic: MY QUOTE FOR YOU TODAY .. MONDAY

Wanted to share my quote for the day with you and your group . This speaks volumes ..


Motivational Quote - What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.

Do you back up what you say and what you believe in with your actions? Most of us find sometime during the day that this is not the case. We find ourselves doing or saying something that does not agree with our values or purpose. This is something we can work on, just a little each day, to get better and better.

Motivational Quote - When you stand still, you reject the struggle, and you refuse to change and grow.  Ultimately, you reject fulfillment, happiness, the dance for joy and everything else that is eternally good.

Action is the only way anything ever gets done. Sitting around and waiting for life to happen to you will only guarantee one thing: that you’re not going to end up with a life you love. By waiting, you can react to what’s tossed your way and nothing more. It’s easy to take a passive approach to life without taking chances. It’s easy to fall into a rut and do the same things the same way all the time. Change is what’s hard, but it’s change that will reveal all the wonders that life has to offer. You can break out of your set ways by taking action. Try doing the same thing a different way. Jump in with both feet and learn something new. Ask a friend to teach you a skill they’re good at. Grow as a person and your world grows with you.

What is your favorite weight loss surgery friendly recipe?

Mine is a pretty simple one.  I just take a bag of Ceasar salad mix, easy enough just mix everything in the bad.  Grill a couple of skinless boneless chicken breasts with nothing more than a little salt, pepper, and a light brushing of olive oli.  Add the sliced chicken breast to the ceasar salad,  and I have a nice grilled chicken ceasar salad.
