Time and Commitment

FOLKS, I HAVE A PROBLEM...

What's the problem???? I HAVE TOOOO MUCH ON MY MIND...and not enough TIME... Seriously, I'm a GREAT point in my life..In my walk with GOD, I'm growing and developing into a better disciple, and witness for Christ.. My FAMILY is doing fine, mostly healthy, happy, and secure. My relationship with JOHN is better than I can ask for... My FRIENDS are prospering wonderfully, and giving God all the praise... My CAREER is finally heading in a direction where I can finally see a plan for the future...

SO, what's wrong...Well, it's like this....When I finished grad school in December, I just knew that I would have so much extra time, to take care of myself...I knew that I would have the Lap Band surgery, so that would motivate me to lose weight, to exercise, and eat well...I just knew that I would have the time to focus on my health, because without it I won't be able to do any of the things I have in mind for the future.....When I had my surgery in Feb., I set goals for myself..( Look at the previous entries entitled, "Thoughts and Goals") So what happened??? Life happened...The free time I thought I would have, I threw all that extra energy into my job, and church, and I have been blessed abundantly in both areas. Honestly, there's not a need in my life right now that isn't being met.

But the problem is with work going so GREAT, when I get home, I don't feel like cooking, I don't feel like packing my lunch, I don't feel like cleaning, and I for sure don't feel like exercising...

How do I break myself of this ugly habit??? How do I take control of time, and get back on track of losing weight???

I hope figured it out, I have to have a plan.. A schedule of daily activities that allow me time to complete little tasks so that things don't build up. I determined that when I get home from work, I need 4 HOURS OF ASHLEY TIME....Just do it, ME Time...I can't further allow the pressures, and the worries of this world to rule over me, I have to take control of the situations that I can control...

So from today on....

From 6-7pm- Exercise and Shower
From 7:00-7:30pm- Clean my house
From 7:30-9pm- Cook dinner, make my lunch, eat, relax
From 9-10pm- Have my Quiet Time w/God

May God bless this schedule, and make it whole and complete. May God grant me strength to do the things I can, and the peace to understand the things that I can't.
