I am excited and enthusiastic. My goals are in place. I have my to-do list and finetuning my plan for execution.

But this nagging reality keeps getting in my way – my health.

I have been struggling with a few health issues for quite some time, mostly the past year. Through it all, I’ve justified how I was feeling and adopted coping mechanisms to get by.

But is that enough? Being and feeling less than 100%? Is it okay to just merely function and not be well?

I want to encourage you today ladies to take care of you.

You and your health DO matter. In order to step into the fullness of you and what you have to offer the world, you have to be complete. How can you BE and function at your best, when you are operating from less than? When you deny care of self, you deny quality of life.

You and I are in business because we want to change our lifestyle, enjoy new freedoms and experience new joys, while making a difference in the lives of others. Good health is liberating, and so is business success.

However, one cannot exist without the other.

Last week was proof positive of this very premise. Instead of being highly productive and making forward progress in many initiatives, I was robbed of energy, momentum, clarity, and focus. As a result, little was accomplished.

Thankfully, I am happy to report last week was a momentary set-back. This just goes to show trouble doesn’t last always. Hallelujah!

I wish to learn from this experience and guard against neglect of self in the future.

I am wondering to what degree are you in tune with how you are doing and how you are feeling?

YOUR ASSIGNMENT:
Take out a piece of paper and write down all the aspects of you (e.g. physical, mental, spiritual, social, emotional, intellectual). Rate your level of satisfaction in each area. As you rate yourself, be honest. What have you been tolerating, or merely coping with, at the expense of achieving business success? What change(s) are needed at this time to receive more of what you want and an improved quality of life? Formulate three action steps to make this change happen. Keep a journal of your decision today and revisit this entry a month from now to see where you are.
