Week Forty-six - Self care


In certain families, it is taught that taking care of yourself is 'selfish' or 'self-centered'. 
This week look at all the ways you take care of yourself - or don't.

Also, look at the ways you believe it would be a good idea to take care of yourself like a healthy diet and/or exercise but you don't. What is in your way?

Week Forty-four - Money - Part 1


Most people I know aren't happy with their financial situation. They want more. What stops them? What stops you? 

This week think about how money was handled in your house growing up and see if you can find ways that your life is the same and/or different.

For example, in my life growing up there was a lot of fear of not having enough. It created jealousy on the part of my parents. It created anger on the part of my mother. It was always a big and uncomfortable issue. Since I have grown up I have seen that I have always managed to live on 'the edge' with very few exceptions. I always say, "I've lived on the right side of the edge" because I always pay my bills on time whereas my father was mostly late.

Think about the influences in your life from childhood that may be effecting your financial situation now.
