Here! A little ice cream won’t hurt your weight loss!

We all make mistakes. It is one characteristic of being human. But mistakes are not always bad. In fact, if you follow these four simple steps, you can turn a mistake, an obstacle preventing you from making progress to your goal, into a strength that will power you to success. This topic is from Varsity Squad member Melanie, who sent me a tweet asking me to address this.

Listen to Melanie’s earlier question (via my Speakpipe system) in MYST 69.

As mentioned in this episode, LoseIt is my recommended weight loss method. Get Lose It! Premium because it works.

Resolutions are like Spam. When you first see the can (or say the resolution) it sounds great, but later, when you really get into it….it’s not as appealing.*

A resolution is a statement, usually made without a lot of thought, which almost inevitably get thrown away quickly after the holiday. A goal, on the other hand, is a plan that grows with you, and enables you to reach more than you thought possible.

We will talk more about goal-setting in upcoming episodes, but in this show, I share one of my goals for 2015. I haven’t mentioned this in detail before, and this is a large and someone intimidating goal.

* The truth is, I really enjoy Spam. But it is the food that is easy to belittle, and it fit the situation perfectly here.

We are all creative.

That does not mean we are all artists, musicians, craftsmen, and designers. At least, not in a common meaning. But we are all creative in some manner, and that is important.

Me?

I’m a darn good cook and brewer of beer. I’m a pretty creative nurse educator and getting better at podcasting. My wife is awesome and can design her own clothes, create artwork and decorate a home on a budget.

Everyone has some area of creativity. It’s important to acknowledge that, nurture that, and then use it to enjoy life!

An apology for the sound quality of my voice. I’ve been battling a nasty upper respiratory virus since November 10, and it is just now easing. For about a week, I had essentially no voice at all, so what you are hearing represents a major victory over the virus.
