I am in a good place emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I am not saying my life is perfect. I still have some work to do. I have worked hard over the past 2 years to get where I am right now. Over the past month, I have downsized tremendously, moved closer to work and where I spend most of my time to cut down on gas expenses and travel time. I have purged (donated) many of my belongings. This has been very good therapy. I never realized that holding on to certain things was keeping me from moving on & growing emotionally. I feel so much better. This has been very freeing and cleansing for my mind and soul. Over the past 2 years, I have learned to set boundaries for myself and others. I have realized that I can do anything my heart desires and that I am responsible for the direction my life goes from here. I no longer seek affirmation elsewhere (friends, family, coach), I am able to look at my life and say: "Steph, you've come a long way, baby! Keep kicking ass cause you are doing great!" I have to ADMIT that I am nervous and excited about teaching Kindergarten for the 2015-16 school year. It will be a HUGE change for me, but as we all know...Change is SCARY, but Change is also GOOD for us. As I said, my life isn't perfect. We all stress over money and our financial status. I am working to get my financial life to be more stable and to not have to "stress" over if I am going to be able to make it paycheck to paycheck and to be able to pay down some debts.
Goals for this week:
1. Write down all that I eat each day and email AH with my Calories in vs Calories out.
2. Swim laps 2-3 days this week
3. Hang pictures and other decor by the end of the week.
4. Create a budget
Are you ready to admit where you are in life?

My trainer and coach April Hartsook, created "10 Principles of Purpose" to go along with her training program. Over the next 10 weeks, I will be posting about each principal and how it applies to MY life. I will also set weekly goals that I will share in my posts. I encourage each of you to share how these principles apply to YOUR life and set goals as well. Make sure you start small with your goals and try not have your goals as a number on the scale. You are so much more than a number.
