As a mom it is really easy to say no. Raising kids, sometimes we find ourselves saying no and then thinking “I probably could’ve said yes to that one, but it’s too late now…I don’t wanna seem weak!” In parenting, we get so accustomed to telling the kids “no” it becomes a knee jerk reaction. Although I can think of a few parents who have the opposite problem and can’t spell discipline, I think the majority of us are quite good with the NO word.
Motivation is definitely a weight loss buzz word. When someone has successfully lost weight we say things like “She’s so motivated!” “I wonder where she gets her motivation.” Much of the time, these weight loss success stories have a secret. Their secret: THEY’RE NOT MOTIVATED! Yes, that’s right, at least no more than you or I.
According to the American Cancer Society, in 2006 40,970 women died from breast cancer. They are harsh statistics. But they are statistics that deserve attention. Many of you probably knew someone who lost the battle. Many of you may have fought and prevailed. Some of you may be fighting it right now.
Once a year the red carpet rolls out and we all tune in. Most of us are more interested in the red carpet than the actual award show. What will so-and-so be wearing? Who will enter the all feared worst-dressed list and be doomed to horrible ridicule by Joan Rivers and her just-as-odd daughter? The Oscars are an American phenomenon we can’t escape. Many of us wish they would “just get to the good awards already!” Do we really care about the Best Editor award? Hmm..nope, probably not.
