Trust The Process For Your Success

JUST FOR TODAY:  Hold onto your vision for your success, but let go of the details for how and when it "must" happen.

When setting goals, it is essential that you capture the true essence of what you desire.  Whether you'd like to overcome obesity or an eating disorder, the essence of your desire might look something like, "I'd like to have a healthy relationship with food, feel great about my body, and be free to fully enjoy my life."  It can also be helpful to set a date when you'd like to achieve your goal, so you can develop an action plan and begin to make positive changes.  However, it is important to release any attachment to the outcome.  You may begin your action plan, and realize that it's not working as you had expected.  Trust your intuition to make modifications to better serve you.  Your action plan may be working, but not at the rate you had hoped.  Trust your intuition that your success is unfolding at the pace that's right for you.  Hold onto your vision for success, but remember that there may be something even better that what you had envisioned which is on its way for you.  Trust the process.
