One of my favorite things to do here in the Hudson Valley is to shop the Farmer’s Markets. There are so many to choose from

as morning breaks, I see the fog lifting. Revealing only glimpses of the picture before me. #transformation #hope #earlyriser #GodsCreation

Today, find your inner wildness. Step outside your ordinary routine and seek out new ways of seeing and knowing the world. #wonder #soulsearching #seekinggrace

Up and at ‘em! For the past month, I’ve challenged myself to really being consistent with my walk routine. Winter months on the treadmill is often challenging for me, however outdoor walking just invigorates me. I love starting my morning with a walk. I’ve gone from 30 minutes a few years ago to a full hour and a half everyday. My mind is clear, my body is stronger, and my soul is peaceful. What activity would you love to become consistent with? What’s stopping you? #consistency

What change have you been putting off that you can take action on today? I did a lot of thinking on my walk today. Obviously thinking about how quickly our world has changed. Change is hard. Change is uncomfortable. But I know firsthand that without change, we don’t stretch and grow. We stay in the same place voicing complaints about why we aren’t moving forward. On a more personal level these are the things I’ve come to know about change. IT’S NOT A PLACE TO TRAVEL TO, ITS A PLACE WE CREATE! I’m not sure I’ve ever felt that more than I have the last few years. We get stuck in the comfortable. It’s what we know. It’s what comes easy. So many times we let ourself off the hook by saying I’ll do that tomorrow. That attitude denied me the power in every moment to make the changes I desired. Change is now. It’s in every moment! Don’t let delay distract you from what you can do now. When you push your goals to tomorrow it robs you of the opportunity for progress. If we keep focusing on why we can’t make changes, we are simply talking ourselves into the problems instead of talking ourselves into what WE could create. We give the problems our power. We are building walls. We prolong the struggle! If we keep talking ourselves out of change today, there is greater opportunity to talk ourselves out of change tomorrow . If we persist in pushing through the uncomfortable today there is a greater chance we will push through it again tomorrow. We can choose change or we can choose more of the same. The choice is always ours. Are you ready to create change? #JuneGoals #CoachLinda #readyforchange

There couldn’t be a better time to take that ONE more chance on YOU!! Let’s talk. #coachLinda #livethelifeyoulove

Life was supposed to be different in this second half. I dreamt of these days, years ago, where time wouldn’t be spent chasing children and dreams and I would settle into a routine and write. But -here I am with time and space, yet the words seem stuck. We’re coming out of what was a pretty tough season and it seems that in the midst of the chaos, words found an easier escape from the heart to the journal than they have now. The second half of life is upon me and I’m learning I have to live in this pause and reflect. I’m not used to this quiet and some days it can be deafening. This challenge through HopeWriters is giving me a chance to re-imagine those dreams. There are new stories to write and a new heart to understand. Hopewriter Challenge #reimagine #hopewriterlife
