Intend and expect success

"I am successful!" - NiPi

Vision without action is a daydream.

Action without vision is a nightmare!

It's true, dreams can't come true unless you have them.

However, just dreaming won't make dreams come true.

We need to want things passionately and intend to have them.

That's the difference that makes the difference.

Picture plus passion is 'prayer'. You Expect Success - YES!

What an achievement!

"And now it continues!" - YsYs

No, I'm not giving up!

I already have my next target worked out and in my sights.

It feels good to be on target.

I've lost 28 lbs in 28 weeks, just as I intended, my BMI is now 25.8.

Now I intend to lose another 7 lbs in 7 weeks.

So, by 1 September 2011, I will have lost 35 lbs in 35 weeks.

And my BMI will then be 24.6, below 25 - at which point I am no longer 'overweight'!

You want to relax, right?

"Intend to accept." - YaPi

I can't just relax!

I should be doing something ... anything ... but relax!

I know feeling relaxed is wonderful, freedom from pressure, imposition

Having to try to relax is bizarre, right?

Breathe ... and accept the intention to rest for a while

Take a moment to rise above it all, to look down at yourself from above

Now what's your intention?

Let go ... and let life ... be!

"Relax. Let yourself go!" - YPYP

Not your health. Don't let that go!

Rather, permit yourself to explore new ideas about healthy living.

Feel the relief of allowing rather than preventing.

Of embracing and expanding rather than shunning and contracting.

Intend to live well.

Regret times when you haven't and don't.

Life and well-being are as good as we allow them to be.

What do you expect?

"Beyond what the mirror reflects is how I want to be. I see and expect it." - SRPP

Our bodies don't lie and neither do our scales.

We know what we expect.

Even if we don't like it!

The trick is to decide to make and then expect things to be different.

VisuaL-eyes, IN-tend, and expect what you do want.

Release all guilt and blame.

What will be is what you will!

"Big boys don't cry!" ... but don't they need to?

"I accept that remorse is a feeling not a thought, that I need to accept it, not shun it, and only then can repair begin." - SRYA

We're often taught not to admit mistakes or fault.

Isn't that a mistake?

How can we learn to love ourselves if we can't love and feel remorse about the errors we make?

Trial and error is all part of the adventure of life and growth.

We are likely to falter on unfamiliar ground.

That needn't stop us treading new pathways.

Ultimately only good can come from it.

Intended In-tension doesn't work - relax!

"To achieve and keep my BMI below 25, I intend to feel the consequences of 'over-eating' before I do so." - SRPI

Ask yourself ...

Have you identified your intention?

Is it clear?

Does it feel good? Any tension?

Even when you're doing it?

Have you imag-in-ed (in-imaged, and imaged-in) the consequences?

Does it still feel good?

OK ... then relax, and do it!
