You are looking forward to the upcoming summer for going to the beach going swimming and putting that nice summer dress on, and then you take a look in the mirror. You see a gloomy, and what you think is fat and floppy body. You feel desperate! “How will I get in shape before the summer? That’s just impossible.”
You think to yourself; “Should I find the diet drinks. Is there some powder meal replacement I should have, should I just stop eating or maybe there is a pill I can take.”
Wait. Wait. Wait.

Happy International Women’s Day. Today, March the 8th is the day to celebrate all the brave women out there in the world. All women. Everyone at their level.

So why is it like this? Well, because people don’t make resolutions from the heart they just say the words that they think they should say, and then the resolution will be enough to make them change.

“A resolution is a new solution and that’s what you want.”

Do you find yourself forgetting things every now and then saying to yourself “I can’t remember, I don’t know where I put it. I just don’t remember.”
Well, forgetting things every now and then is normal because there is such an inflow of information and some of the stuff doesn’t really get into your brain properly. And there is such an overflow of it and if we don’t internalize it, it’s not there, but that is very normal. I’m sure you’ve been in that situation tons of times because most people have.
