Be Someone's Sunshine

Omelet Love

I eat a lot of egg scrambles because they're so fast and easy and I enjoy them. But if I have cheese available too eat with my eggs then an omelet is my fav! First I cooked my turkey bacon and chopped it up, then sauteed my veggies (spinach, tomatoes, bell pepper, onions), then stuffed it all into the omelet with some cheese! ‪#‎yumyumyum‬ ‪#‎quickeazyhealthydelicious‬‪#‎realfood‬ ‪#‎beachbodycoach‬

Four-Year-Old Promotes Shakeology

Abby is the cutest girl in the world, I'm pretty sure. She loves books. I'll often find her not just looking at books but telling the story - sometimes to Mikey, and sometimes just to herself. She also loves everything Beachbody. A week or so ago I found her on the couch going through the pamphlet about the benefits of Shakeology that came with my first order - she was going through page by page and talking about it, like a commercial. It was SO CUTE. I asked her to do it again so I could get a video. She was a little camera shy, but still adorable.

Minute Reflections of Paradise

I'm currently reading "In the Shadow of the Banyan Tree" by Vaddey Ratner. I'm only about half-way through but really enjoying it. I read this quote the other day and it really struck me. I always feel a glimpse of heaven when I am at the temple of our Lord. And when I seek Him there (or anywhere) I always find Him. And really, as I truly seek anything, including my wellness goals, I find them as well.

"Knowing comes from learning, finding from seeking. It was clear what the message meant. If I looked hard enough, if I sought, I would find what I was looking for. Here, on the banyan-shaded grounds, the temple harbored minute reflections of the paradise we'd left behind."

You Are Never Too Old

At age 23, Tina Fey was working at a YMCA.
At age 23, Oprah was fired from her first reporting job.
At age 24, Stephen King was working as a janitor and living in a trailer.
At age 27, Vincent Van Gogh failed as a missionary and decided to go to art school.
At age 28, J.K. Rowling was a suicidal single parent living on welfare.
At age 28, Wayne Coyne (from The Flaming Lips) was a fry cook.
At age 30, Harrison Ford was a carpenter.
At age 30, Martha Stewart was a stockbroker.
At age 37, Ang Lee was a stay-at-home-dad working odd jobs.
Julia Child released her first cookbook at age 39, and got her own cooking show at age 51.
Vera Wang failed to make the Olympic figure skating team, didn’t get the Editor-in-Chief position at Vogue, and designed her first dress at age 40.
Stan Lee didn’t release his first big comic book until he was 40.
Alan Rickman gave up his graphic design career to pursue acting at age 42.
Samuel L. Jackson didn’t get his first movie role until he was 46.
Morgan Freeman landed his first MAJOR movie role at age 52.
Kathryn Bigelow only reached international success when she made The Hurt Locker at age 57.
Grandma Moses didn’t begin her painting career until age 76.
Louise Bourgeois didn’t become a famous artist until she was 78.
Whatever your dream is, it is not too late to achieve it. You aren’t a failure because you haven’t found fame and fortune by the age of 21. Heck, it’s okay if you don’t even know what your dream is yet. Even if you’re flipping burgers, waiting tables or answering phones today, you never know where you’ll end up tomorrow.
Never tell yourself you’re too old to make it.
Never tell yourself you missed your chance.
Never tell yourself that you aren’t good enough.
You can do it. Whatever it is.

Confession #6

Confession #6: I'm a sucker for money-back guarantees. If I am at all intrigued by something and it has a money-back guarantee I'm going to try it. Shakeology happens to be one of those things. 100% satisfaction guaranteed, or your money back. When I ordered my first bag I decided to take a gamble and try greenberry since none of my friends had personally tried it. While it wasn't gross I didn't really love it either. So, I returned it. No problems, no questions asked. They even paid for the return shipping. I ordered a different flavor and am enjoying it more now. So, know that if you are considering Shakeology, and wondering if it will really work for you, that if you try it and find you don't like it for any reason it's super easy to return it. I know from experience.  ‪#‎guaranteesucker‬‪#‎shakeologyisawesome‬ ‪#‎beachbodycoach‬

Perspective

Have you ever had the experience where something happens to change your perspective a bit and as a result your experience is greatly altered? I have, lots of times. Today I had one of those experiences. Today was my plyo day - the workout where the whole thing is jumping. It has always been my least favorite because jumping is not really my thing. But one of my challengers pointed out that she liked the plyo workout because you only do each exercise for 30 seconds at a time, then get a 30 second break to recover. Other workouts you do each exercise for a minute, then get a 15 second break. Thinking about how I only needed to jump for 30 seconds at a time today, and then I'd get that much rest totally changed my experience today. I can't say I really enjoyed the workout, but I didn't hate it like I always have before, so that's something!
