My friend Shyla and I have been talking quite a bit about mastery lately. For both of us, life has pulled our focus away from slim for a while. That has made me feel like I haven't had much to write about, hence my lack of posts. But I have come to realize that mastery in any area is mastery. Strength of will is strength of will.
For the last six weeks I have been focusing on improving the quality and quantity of my scripture study and I have been doing a major home clean-out. (Somehow, admitting that I only have enough focus for two areas at a time feels weak. I know it is the best that I can do, but still, admitting to limitations in public is hard. I feel I should be able to do it all. How dumb is that?) But I am learning that mastery over my time will help me have mastery over my appetite. The will to prioritize and make tough choices about my closets will help me prioritize and make tough choices about my menus. An increase in spiritual strength will help me make the choices that lead to physical strength.
Health is a whole person way of being. Plus, Feng Shui gurus say that de-cluttering your living space is a great way to begin weight loss. So if you, like me, have taken a mental hiatus from exercise and calories, bravo! Here's to new beginnings.
