Fun

If you forget to make your goals fun, it's hard to complete those goals. While working out I love having my family and friends around. Not only do I have the help and encouragement I need, I also have someone to make it fun.

It's contagious when your loved ones laugh. So that simple laugh turns working out into (almost) a game. I still get the exercising done, I don't even realize how much, because I'm focused on the fun of it.

Now it's not always good to have unfocused exercise, there are benefits to a nice focused workout. But an unfocused and fun workout breaks the routine.

My newest Zun Scarf base!

Focus

To complete the goals you set for yourself, you must have the focus to reach for them. In the next few days I have a garage sale to run, which is a huge distraction, but I am remaining focused on my goal. Nothing is going to distract me from reaching for my goal.

Life throws curve balls. We have things that come and demand our attention. It takes control to focus on what is right before us and to focus on what we are striving for. It's not always easy, but it is worth it to never give up.

EXERCISE

Today was great for exercise. My mother and best friend came over. We did a 45 minute Yoga routine. It was more in depth than the yoga I have been doing up until now.

Time goes by so much faster when your exercising with loved ones. It's always fun when your not alone. The yoga taught a relaxation method after the work out which I could see myself using often to unwind.

ZUN SCARF

The latest Zun Scarf is done. Pictured below. I am ready to start my newest one. The colors are blue and green with the word 'ZUN' sewn in white. (And the most unique of the Zun Scarves.)

Support

To have a group standing behind you is the most powerful resource available to a person. It's a long journey in any undertaking you attempt, but to know someone is always there to catch you is encouraging.

For me, having my family there to support me, and to offer that helping hand when I need it is more than I could ever ask for. I have tried before to change, but I tried this undertaking by myself. I failed. I had given up. This time I started anew, and I started with my family.

The experiences I have had in the past have shown me that it's never easy, but it's manageable with help. There's no reason to fear asking for help. It's a strength to be able to admit and ask for that helping hand.

EXERCISE

Taking a long, fast walk with my sister not only helped with my muscles, but with our relationship. It's not always easy being close to your family, fights do break out. But it's worth those moments you share with them that reminds you that they are always there with you.

The walk was great for many reasons, I learned I can walk twice as long as in the past. And while I can walk that long now, I can also withstand the pains in my hip.

ZUN SCARF

I have almost finished my third scarf, and I have all the materials for my newest creation on hand. I am excited for my new one to be done.

This photo is from the walk with my sister. It's the day before the full moon. The reflection is in the lake. It's a beautiful touching scene. The moon has always been a support for me.
