One Small Step Toward Change...

So I have come to find...though facebook is a great way to keep up and in touch with people...it also may not be the wisest way I spend my time. Actually, it makes me quite lazy to be honest.

There always seems to be a list of things I need to accomplish..but don't. Things I probably should already have done around the house..but they still sit and wait. New things I would like to try.. but never seem to get around to doing. This is all about to change! ;-)

I have decided, for the benefit of personal growth and better time management, to go 30 days without facebook. Today is my 5th day. It is going pretty well so far...although by day 4 I realized I should probably cut back on more than just FB. (Why does Hulu have to tempt me by having so many House Hunters episodes on it?! haha)

Today is my first day with an internet limit. (I feel like a little kid..."Only 30 minutes on the computer, Amy. Start the timer...." Yes. There is actually a timer sitting next to me counting the minutes I'm on here... :-p )

Though this may seem kinda silly and small (getting over my little computer "addiction") I'm excited about finding and developing new hobbies and interests in my downtime.

Maybe there is something in your life that you feel could use a change. It may not be anything big.... Sometimes a healthy change in life starts with one small step.

Does anything come to mind?

Maybe...You feel the need to put on the tv right when you get home from work..to de-stress.
What if...You made a nice soothing cup of tea, snuggled into your favorite chair, and picked up that book you keep meaning to read?

Maybe...You always have to start your day with a tall cup of coffee.
What if...You started the day with a healthy and energizing smoothie instead?

Maybe...You just feel like sleeping when there is nothing calling your immediate attention. (Yes, it is possible to sleep Too Much!)
What if...You went outside to get some fresh air and to enjoy all the beauty that waits right outside your front door?

Maybe...You struggle with getting the exercise you need. (Like me..haha)
What if...You parked farther away next time you go to the store...or took the stairs instead of the elevator?

Small changes add up! Just give it a try and see for yourself. I challenge you to pick 1 (Just one!) thing in your life that could stand a little makeover. Then make an effort This Week to take that first step towards change.
