“Life is like riding a bicycle, to keep your balance you must keep moving.” Einstein
Have you bought your stretchy pants yet? It’s two days until Thanksgiving… WHEW! You’ve still got time. Soon you’ll be sitting down to a table full of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, rolls, corn, peas, cranberries, pumpkin pie, ice cream. When you divide your plate into 4ths, if 75% of your plate is dessert, you’ve fallen off your bike!
You’ve got to have balance.
How about if you sit down and divide your plate into 4ths and you have an area for veggies, potatoes and turkey… but your day is full of appetizers, snacks, munchies, and candy. OR even better you’ve snacked, lounged on the couch, got some munchies, moved to the chair, and had dinner, but since you have your stretchy pants you sit and chat… well until it’s time for pie. The biggest spurt of energy was pushing yourself up off the couch to get to the table. See your bike? Boom!
Are you picking up on my pattern?
You’ve got to have balance to keep moving forward.
Thanksgiving is quickly approaching, evaluate the balance in your life. Not just the amount of exercise vs. food vs. pie… but your total life. Make sure you aren’t spending too much time on the “pie” in your life without paying attention to the “exercise” and even break it down further… take a moment to look at “food” and see if you’re in balance there and not indulging in too many “carbs” and not enough “fiber” –
Get what I’m saying?
You need balance. As you sit down to your beautiful dinner with all your family and loved ones surrounding you. Remember what is truly important to be thankful for. Enjoy your pie, eat your veggies, take a walk, and think about my metaphor in the big picture of your life!
AND Have TWO Chocolate Chip Cookies!
Happy Almost Thanksgiving!
