“The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.” – Ferdinand Foch

Passion…commitment…disciplin
e! All descriptive of, “…the human soul on fire.” When you have passion, commitment, and discipline, you are bringing everything you have to the “fight!” Whether moving toward a goal, accomplishing a project, or building/maintaining a relationship, if your “soul is on fire” your probability of success is dramatically increased! In fact, if you don’t have passion/commitment/discipline about something, you may be wasting your time on things that are actually lower priorities in your life. Think about that!

The above is my Quote of the Day and really made me reflect about today and where I am and where I have come from and where I want to be. My journey is one of so many others. I just weighed in and measured this morning at my gym. I reported a 3 lb loss and 5.5 inch loss in the last 33 days. It really made me feel happy and positive about what I am doing EVERY DAY now. It is funny how you are able to change your life when you focus on health, diet and exercise and make it a priority. With passion, commitment and discipline - I know that I have all the tools to do this for the rest of my life.

I also realize that I do need my accountability. I need to attend my weekly meetings. I need to see my friends through their struggles and successes. I need to keep focused every day. I need to monitor. I need to spark. I know that I will drift and I want to be prepared. I want to keep the fire in my belly to keep going. I want to feed the flame and keep it burning bright. I want to have an abundance of energy and enthusiasm and spread the spark to others. I equate it to the Olympic Torch...it never is extinguished. It travels and is passed from one to another on an epic journey.

Sparkpeople is such a wonderful tool, community and source of inspiration and information. I am so glad I am here. Keep the fire burning!
Happy steeming...
