Ready for War!

"I got my mind right, money tight...READY FOR WAR!!! Vida P is...yea I told you before! I got the streets locked, Vida hot as before! You know the game and the name, now I'm ready for war!!!!"

This is one of my motivation songs for the next 8 weeks!  I have 60 days to make a lifestyle change.  Not for my family or friends, but for myself.  I've seen too many family members suffer from strokes, high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, cancer, etc. I definitely don't want to spend the rest of my life on medicene when I could've grasped control by changing these bad habits!  The old saying goes "It take 21 days to break an old habit/start a new habit" but you get what I'm trying to say.  I'm at Day 4, so 17 days from now this should be as natural as tying my shoe! 

I'm taking this opportunity to do this for me!  It's tough focusing all of this attention on myself because I'm usually so worried about everyone else and their needs.  Through the years, I've neglected my own self to do for everyone else.  My motto was "Self-less, not Selfish," but that has to change.  Seriously, you're talking to the person who was voted "Most Dedicated" in her Senior Class....so now it's time to getting back to the love and dedication that I've had for others and dedicating it to myself!  Grace has been lost in the storm, so this week marks a new chapter.  I am Ready for War!  My next post will be about Week One in this journey.  I hope you're ready for this ride!  Hang on!!!
