Doing Things Differently, AGAIN!

Yes, people, it’s that time of year, again.

* As some of you may remember last year, I was trying my very best to get over an incredibly devastating breakup. And much like Forrest Gump, I woke up one morning and just decided to start running. And by running, I really just mean walking.

* For those of you who are new to this blog, and for those of you who never heard about my project called ‘Doing Things Differently™’ here is a VERY quick overview chock-full of external links that will provide further information.

‘Once Upon A Time’ A Girl Named Meleah wanted to improve the ‘Quality Of Her Life’ so she started ‘Doing Things Differently™’. And then she noticed the ‘Little Changes’ she made every day had a huge impact on her life. And even though Meleah had a few ‘Setbacks’ she kept on forging ‘Ahead’.

Miraculously, Meleah completed 90 Days of ‘Doing Things Differently™’ and that’s when she was supposed to start Doing Things The Same. Sadly, that didn’t happen. Instead, Meleah rested on her laurels. She stopped exercising, she stopped eating healthy, and she stopped waking up early. She’s even been slacking with her writing.

Last week she decided that 2011 wasn’t going very well for her. She’s been sick and extremely depressed. And quite frankly, she’s had enough. So, she returned to doing what she know works best for her.

Meleah put on her ‘Outfit’ and she went ‘Outside’ to take a brisk morning walk around the block, three times in a row, for five days in a row, for the first week, in a row. And she’s very proud of herself. However, Meleah did not wake up as early as she would have liked, and she had a few setbacks with respects to food. Because when you have an extensive list like this of foods to avoid, it’s pretty difficult to find things that she can eat. But, she’s not going to beat herself up about that. Instead, she’s going to forge ahead this week. Because as far as she’s concerned, every day is a new day, with endless possibilities. And besides, the first week is always kind of like a practice week.
