You Are Growing

Shaun Bradford

Slow growth is still growth. It’s not the speed that matters, but the progress made. So, stand tall and be proud of how far you have come—and you’ve come so far. You, my friend, are growing!🌿

Love you always,

Shaun

UPDATE: I Did Five Minutes!

Shaun Bradford

UPDATE (see last post): I worked out for FIVE minutes while still in bed. I searched “Exercises to do in bed,” and lo and behold, there were so many options!

I’m going to start where I am (mentally) and work my way up. Without a doubt—or excuses—I can exercise for at least five minutes while never leaving my bed (y’all, it’s 5:00 AM and still dark out😩). This is doable!

YESSSS!!! I DID IT!!🌟

See, I’m already changing my future.🥰

Talk to you later!💗

All It Takes Is One Decision

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

I shared the following on August 23, 2019, as one of my “Social Media Finds” (things I found on social media and reshared on Facebook before I started posting here daily)—

I believe the quote to be very true. We’re always one decision away from a totally different life. Whether we decide to stay still or move, say “yes” or “no,” make that call, send that text, make or respond to a post, exercise or not, eat out or cook (all things I struggle with daily, but by all means grab whatever resonates with you and/or add a few☺️), every decision—big or small—is a decision towards a different life.

If you think about it, decisions are like forks in a road, you can only choose one of two paths. Each path sets you up for a different life. You may not see it at the moment, but after a while, especially if your decisions become a habit, your life will change. Don’t believe me, think about a recent decision you made or didn’t make that has changed or will change your life.

Personally—and this is only one of many examples—I wake up every morning thinking I need to start a workout routine, and every morning I say I’ll workout later. And it never happens! This decision or indecision is affecting my future. I know this. KNOW THIS! However, I’m still not moving. Hopefully, by openly acknowledging this, I will make the move to workout soon. We shall see.

Side Note: I’m laughing because I’m lying here (in my comfortable bed) saying, “You can do five minutes, Shaun—FIVE MINUTES!”😅😂

Well, this is how my morning has started. I hope your day begins well. It is self-love Saturday. Be sure to treat yourself extra special today.♥️

I love you,

Shaun
