JUST FOR TODAY: Focus on the success you currently have rather than how far you may still have to go to achieve your goals.
Often times, people trying to make positive changes become frustrated with their "lack of progress." They focus on how far they still have to go to achieve their desired success, rather than how far they have already come. They also lose sight of the small steps they are taking on a daily basis. Overlooking success leads to feelings of failure, which can then result in abandoning weight loss plans or recovery programs all together. Giving up is a sure way to fail. Although you may wish your progress could occur more quickly, trust that your healing is unfolding at exactly the right pace for you. Acknowledge how for you have come, and own the success which is currently yours. Believe in your Self!
