One is never enough

One is never enough

Getting started is tough.

Keeping going is even more of a challenge.

When we’re feeling motivated and inspired, we can take the first step.

We can build up the confidence and will to go after what we want.

We can get the gym membership.

We can buy the groceries.

We can enroll in the class.

But when the motivation and inspiration fade, so, too, do our efforts.

We fall back into our old routine.

Slip back into old habits.

Without repeatedly doing the work, we won’t continue to move toward our goals.

We’ve got to keep going.

Even when we don’t feel like it.

Even when we’re feeling uninspired.

Even when we’d rather just “not”.

The work must be done.

That first step is great.

It might make you feel accomplished.

You might get some satisfaction from taking it.

It won’t take you all the way there.

You won't be competent after one class.

You won't be perfectly healthy after one meal.

You won't be strong and capable after one workout.

One is never enough.

Progress takes steady, consistent effort.

Often, even after you've reached your goal.

Keep showing up.

It might not be fun.

It might not be easy.

It might not be exciting.

It will be worth it.

You are worth it.

You are worthy.

You’ve got this.

What if we simply listened?

What if we simply listened?

Allowing others to open up to us can be a powerful tool for exchanging the gift of connection. So often, though, we're too focused on responding, controlling, or judging for any connection to form. We...

Life isn't always a problem to be solved

We often get stuck in patterns of problem solving. No matter what comes our way, we feel the need to do something. Sometimes, though, there's nothing for us to do. Life isn't always a problem to be so...

Those we see as least worthy of compassion are often those who need it most

Those we see as least worthy of compassion are often those who need it most

Holding compassion for those we see as malicious, selfish, or otherwise unworthy may not feel right. Such characteristics, however, are often rooted in deep suffering or fear. Those we see as least wo...

Let your thoughts serve you

Let your thoughts serve you

Our thoughts make wonderful servants. They can be invaluable for reflection, forethought, and contemplation. When we accept them without question, though, we allow them to act as our masters. They can...

You'll never hate yourself into loving yourself

Make peace with your imperfection

Make peace with your imperfection

Striving for perfection is a futile effort. You've always made mistakes and you always will. Rather than carry the burden of a reality you refuse to accept, face those mistakes with kindness and compa...
