Being productive is something I always strive for. I am a motivated and determined woman and that I am proud of, although that sometimes comes with an exhausting price. I read today that just like a fruit tree our bodies are not always meant to bear fruit; throughout our life there are times of producing and times of resting and being rejuvenated. So with that thought, our lives were not made to always be "ON" the " Rest" phase is just if not more important than the producing phase. When we take the time to "Rest" things calm down and we are more focused inwardly and preparing the fruit we are producing. I used both my family and wellness center as my examples My children are my fruit that I am preparing to be harvested one day and I am taking the time to nurture them and give them the care they need to grow strong and Godly independent adults Althought the physical fruit of them living in this world as grown adults will not be for years to come and therefore they are my product of taking the time to "Rest". The other is my wellness center a place that if I continue to plan always full force and in the "On" mode will have me wilting before the doors even open. So I take the time to "Rest" and remember I am not only rejuvenating and nurturing myself, I am also giving the proper attention to my future fruit and in due season it will be beautiful.
I had lots of ideas in my head tonight so my husband and I spent some time in the bookstore; a place I would visit everyday if I could. enjoying a skinny latte and browsing the isles is one of the best kind of nights for me.
There are many or hundreds to be correct of diets, health programs and a "cure" for every ailment on most shelves in Amercia. So I am for sure climbing an uphill battle trying to find and connect my thoughts and determine my niche in this quick fix crazed world we live in. I have ideas that I know can and would change lives, but I am praying hard for my thoughts and ideas to come together to create lasting changes not just a "Best Seller for the month" I want real changes I read if you create a product worth selling, worth advertising and worth the money to use it; then the rest is easy you spend the rest of your life enjoying and building more and more great success stories. That is what I want, I want real life success stories to be retold with the bases of The Well-Watered Garden changed my life.
Oh and the Bikini Bootcamp, you would never believe it was shopping day and yes, I did not go so I repeated some recipes I still had fresh items for I am shopping tomorrow because first I love the cooking part, I love the family dinners already planned out, I love the feeling of eating delicious healthy food and not wanting anything extra and I miss all of that. So I will shop and continue onward.
I bought myself an idea journal to continue to take the thoughts from my head to the paper and clear the clutter that keeps filling my head and keeping me from the grocery store. Just kidding that's all me.
