I had to write about this. Routine & Schedule is a MUST in my life. It's funny because as a child my parents never stressed routine and schedule. My brothers and I never had curfews and we ate whenever. I remember how much it would bug me when my brothers would sleep with my parents. Even as a child I knew we should have our own space. It would bug me so much when my brothers would stay up all nite acting crazy and in the morning, my Parents would always wait til the last minute to take us to school. There was never any consistency growing up. Nothing was planned and maybe that's another reason why I joined the Navy. I loved getting up at the butt crack of dawn, eating chow mustering at 0730. I love how structured the Military is. I am a robot! lol.
I can't stand to be out of order. Maybe once in a while I will do something crazy but hardly ever. If I dont have my oatmeal in the morning... stand by. Anyhow, the point Im trying to make is, My household has a routine 7 days a week. We hardly ever slack. The only member that wasn't 100% onboard was my Husband. He didn't exercise. He NEVER ate Breakfast. He was eating horribly and at one point I was scared that he would get left behind.
My amazing Man made a huge turn around since starting P90X 4 weeks ago. He went from drinking 12 cans of Mt. Dew to ZERO. He pushes play 6 times a week and he actually looks forward to it now. He drinks Shakeology every morning on his way to work and he eats clean dinners now. I am so PROUD of him. Hes now on a schedule and the routine is easy for him I could really cry right now cuz at times I thought there was no hope for him.
Almost every nite we talk each others ear off til fall asleep. He told me that's he's relaxed and happy and he looks forward to every day and he really enjoys work. He simply said, " I dont what it is baby. I think its that Shakeology every morning and getting into the routine of working out. Im more relaxed and I just feel great!" He said he doesnt waste time leaving his office to go get soda and he's making better choices at lunch time. I am so proud of him.
Look at that! My whole family is onboard with this fit and healthy lifestyle. I started working out in Feb of this year and 7 months later my WHOLE family is onboard. KIDS< MOM< BROTHERS
Although my life as child was not consistent I am blessed that I am able to be this way as an adult. Being consistent is definitely paying off. It brings joy to my life knowing that one day my family will have it all! Happy Health & Wealth.
God Bless you all and remember, God hears everything. Bow down and PRAY, GIVE and LOVE...consistently. Everything will happen 10 fold.
Be Blessed!
Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
