So.... I started looking at areas of my life that aren't exactly where I want them to be at.. in particular my weight and my business. I decided to officially be cause in the matter of them being what I desire. I decided to get off the rocking horse and on to the real horse. Here's what I'm doing to be cause in the matter: I created 'The 100 Day Challenge" for myself. I wanted to do something every single day for 100 days straight. It could be anything... could be reading a book, cooking, walking, looking in the mirror and telling yourself how gorgeous you are .. whatever. The bigger part of this game is, who do you have to BE to actually do something every single day for 100 days? Who do you have to BE when you don't feel like doing it? And, conversely, who are you BEING if you don't do it? (What source are you honoring?) I chose to go to work on my weight and the business. I know that I'm one of these people that absolutely has to excercise to keep weight off. How I've been being in this area is pissed off, irritated, frustrated and angry about my weight. And, I'm clear now that I've been cause in that matter. I've been cause in the matter of me being overweight.. and angry and pissed off and frustrated. But, I can choose to be cause in the matter of me being my ideal set point weight... and being happy and joyful and looking forward to excercising. So, to make that happen I had to go to work on what possibilities/pathways I could open up to create what I desire. I even set some criteria to focus in on some of the available pathways. I declared that whatever I did it had to be FUN, be enjoyable and something that really fired me up. Then I asked, "What would that look like? What kinds of things could I do to create that?"... and all of the sudden all of these pathways started appearing that I hadn't previously seen before. Hence, The 100 Day Challenge came to be. I declared that every day for 100 days I would do some kind of physical activity. And to make it fun what I did was enroll my mom and my husband to take on the challenge too! We even created what it was we'd get at the end of the 100 days (the loser has to treat us all to pedicures and then some fine dining at a very fancy restaurant). What's so fun about it is that I've created a system to support my success in the challenge. Neither me, my husband or my mom want to lose so just knowing that my husband did his day at the gym gets my butt right out the door when I don't feel like doing my exercise. We've had more fun pokin' at and razin' each other... and as a result we've created closeness and connection with each other! So... being cause in the matter really is a day by day by day by day doing thing. Every single day I have to literally be cause in the matter step after step after step. I decided to apply this same thing to my business. Every day for 100 days I will do something that is a money generating activity. How does it get any better than this?! Ok.. so for my weight I've got 91 more days to go! For the business I just decided to take that one on today - so, 99 more days to go! If anyone is interested I can create a 100 Day Challenge here for all of us. This will be different than Bob's 45 Day Challenge if any of you are doing that. What would you like to do for 100 days? Who would you have to be to pull it off?

Kudos's to you on your challenge I see you meeting it and beating the pants off hubby and mom,hehe.
I may have to join in this, I have to say most area's of my life are peaceful and good, but I still have that financial issue that I would like to be better than it is.
