It’s time to write about my 16 weeks fitness challenge. As the challenge draws the curtain, I’m sad to say that I have failed in this challenge. I’m reluctant to write this article since there isn’t any great results to share with you. However, there are lessons that you can pick up from my screw up.
What Happened?
Everything was going fine at the start (as everything would). I kept a strict diet and I was exercising on a regular basis (6 days a week). However, I broke my momentum after I went for a vacation to Taiwan.

Much of our time is spent identifying the so-called cause of our discontented states, and the rest of our time is taken up trying to change our unwanted situations into what we imagine will better suit our pleasure. Of course this description puts a kind of positive spin on what amounts to one’s never-ending whirl of wishes, but the facts are that these dreams of a better time to come do not originate with our True Self.

I was born into the Roman Catholic Church and was educated in parochial schools, taught by nuns, and as a child I applied myself to my catechism classes. I considered myself a devout follower.

Dag Hammerskjöld (1905 ~ 1961) said, “We all have within us a center of stillness surrounded by silence.” Yet, for some, silence and stillness are elusive.

As we drove to work one morning we were celebrating the fact that it was a beautiful sunny spring day. Suddenly it wasn’t. Within seconds we were surrounded by fog.

Isn’t it amazing how powerful our minds are – when we tell ourselves we want do one thing, but end up doing the opposite – all because our mind refused to cooperate with us.

This is Part 2 of a multi-part article by Pam Garcy. Are you trapped by a demand that you place upon on yourself that you must not disappoint anyone? This belief can stop you from adopting the “mindset of walking” that I discussed in the previous issue.

When we think about it, there are many things that cause us frustration in this life – the way the world is and how everything works, and indeed, how we perceive it to be falling apart. To live without hope; that’s just an obvious default. It’s easy to fall into this thinking. We only have to watch the News habitually.

Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror and asked “Where is my life going?” Have you ever thought “Why am I here,” or “What am I supposed to be doing?” Even more important, have you ever asked “What do I really want to be doing?” If you are not doing what you want, why aren’t you?
