OKAY I'VE HAD ENOUGH...

I've had enough of.....staring at pictures of other gorgeous people thinking...it would be nice to be that thin...
I've had enough of...saying I'll start again tomorrow
I've had enough of....blaming others for my lack of motivation
I've had enough of ....saying I'm sick, I'll rest today
I've had enough of ....being too busy
I've had enough of...my lack of organisation
I've had enough of...."thinking" about doing something
I've had enough of.....buying clothes to "hide" my body shape
I've had enough of.....retail therapy
I've had enough of.....COMING UP WITH EXCUSES!!!!!

Time to change!!!!

Time to CARE!!

Time to LOVE ME!!!! BECAUSE I DESERVE IT!!!

Okay now that I've got that out of my system!!!

And just as today's Word of encouragement says....Today is my breakthrough...I'm now hit with the dilemma that I may not complete my qualification because too many times I have allowed myself to focus on other things and not put my own goals first....but that is not going to keep me down! I will find a way to achieve my goals!......The greatest thing about today's encouragement is.....ridding myself of my SELF-DEFEATING MENTALITY!!!  That's right it's my OWN SELF THAT IS DEFEATING ME!!!!!....I've got to Change My Mindset!!!!!

Here goes to a new life!!! xxx

Your Breakthrough!

'[The] One who breaks open the way will go up before [you]...' Micah 2:13 NIV

Are you thinking, 'If I don't get a breakthrough, I'm not going to make it?'

Try to understand these two things. First, your problem is just an opportunity for God to work on your behalf. You are positioned to experience the truth of these words: '[The] One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate and go out. Their king will pass through before them, the Lord at their head.' By God's grace you can prevail over your circumstances. You can rise above discouragement and the self-defeating mentality that says: 'Nothing's going to change for the better'. You say, 'But I tried and failed!' Fine, mark that off your list and say, 'Now I know what doesn't work.' Rejoice, God knows the way, and He's going before you!

Second, before you experience a breakthrough there's usually a shake-up. Chuck Yeager , the World War II hero who broke the sound barrier, fractured his ribs in a horse-riding accident the day before he hopped into the cockpit and attempted to do what had never been done with a plane before. His friends said, 'You're in too much pain. Don't do it.' His fears told him, 'Nobody's ever done it before. You won't either.' At 1100 km/hr the plane began to shake violently. Then suddenly he broke through into what he described as 'a great calm'. That's how it is when you're about to experience a breakthrough. When everything around you starts to shake and your fear level skyrockets, you're not about to crash and burn, you're on the threshold of a breakthrough!
