This was a challenging week with this virtue. I have done some easier ones up to now but this was difficult at times.
I found myself fighting off cravings for food, sugary yummy treats lol!!
I was so proud of myself as I did show self control. I said no and found a replacement. My favourite cheese and crackers were so hard to not eat as I love to snack on them in the afternoon but as I am making healthy choices I had to quit the Carbs in this way.
I also went without chocolate, my favourite Lindt Balls, hmmm yummm but I know that since Christmas I had consumed far too many and this was not aligned with my True Health!!! So you will be pleased to know for a whole week I had not 1 chocolate anything!!
So among the week I also practised self control with a person that has ticked me off and undermined me in business. I had my words all ready to send in the messenger and all I had to do was click the arrow and it would be sent and start most likely a big disagreement. I thought better of it, let it go and although I feel I was the correct one I just deleted the words and did not respond, this took some restraint but I did it!! I am happy I took that road because today was a good day!
I managed to watch a Netflix doc that we were told to check out Myths and Monsters, it was really good and I enjoyed all the references to Star Wars and all the Hero’s involved in the Trilogy, love my Sci fi!
The lessons seem easier now as there is not so much practical work load, more about adding index cards, the main things I am getting done.
I add my 3 things I am grateful for each day and my special moment and shuffle in all my pile around the house and I am still flashing!!!
Looking forward to week 18 tomorrow, geee it is this far into the course already? Havent I done so well!!
Blessings Lana xo
