Before After

Remember- Life is great

 So since I lost focus for a few days (weeks?) there for awhile I havnt really been reading or doing my mindset exercises for BFL. When i was doing them tonight and reading my Lesson for Life and reading the success story for today, it just reminded me how inspirational, motivational, and AMAZING the BFL program and Bill Philips really is. I wanted to share with all of ya'll the Lesson-for-Life that I just read. It was the perfect thing to hear after all the personal stress i have been going through lately... and i'm sure ya'll can relate....

"Please don't lose right of how great your life truly is!"

"Maintaining an accurate perspective on your life can be a challenge. Oftentimes we convince ourselves that our lives are so hard, our circumstances are so dire, that things couldn't possibly get worse. In times like these, it's vitally important to open your eyes and see the bigger picture. If you look, you will find people who are suffering TRUE hardship and are facing adversity so much more challenging than yours. You will find people who would trade places with you in an instant, because, in reality, YOU ARE BLESSED, fortunate, and have so much to be thankful for! Please don't take your good fotune for granted. Please do't fall into the trap of believing that you are a victim of life. Please don't lose right of how great your life truly is! And please realize that it is because of adversity that we grow, not in spite of it. Don't let your challenges hold you back; instead, let them fuel your desire to MAKE THE MOST OF YOUR LIFE!"

Did you love that or what? because I know I did. It's kind of just like a little nudge saying "hello! Jessica! wake up! life if great, make the most of life!"

:D

I totally agree with you. I do love Bill! We call the BFL book "The Bible". I even have a post-it that says "The Bible" stuck on to the cover of the book. BFL is great. I never thought that I could actually stick with a workout plan that makes me get up early every day to get my butt to the gym, and its been over 3 weeks! The longest I've stuck with an exercise plan is 3 days! And I do feel that every day I need to remember that life is great, and that I need to make the most of it. Thanks for sharing the motivation.
