I noticed the bottom picture was of a slim young lady - would people be less motivated if she wasnt young, hot and thin with water on hand?<br/><br/>Many of your posts enlighten us to live outside the box yet many of the photos and images used fit right in society's box - it ticks the boxes society deem us to be...or is she just the norm to you and we are the ones who are different?<br/><br/>Hope you follow that. Ta! Thanks for the reflective muse.

Just wondering, is the use of society’s illustration of success done on purpose? I noticed the bottom picture was of a slim young lady – would people be less motivated if she wasnt young, hot and thin with water on hand?

Many of your posts enlighten us to live outside the box yet many of the photos and images used fit right in society’s box – it ticks the boxes society deem us to be…or is she just the norm to you and we are the ones who are different?

Hope you follow that. Ta!

Some answers:

1. We’re largely emotional creatures and quite often our emotions dictate our behaviours – this can be good and bad

2. I’m totally committed to my goals irrespective of ‘how I feel’ on a given day

3. I hang out with people who drag me up rather than down

Hug back to Norway!

Love the list of questions to use for reflection, something so practical. Have printed them for further contemplation when I am in my own space i.e. not at work!!! <br/>It is amazing what comes back from the universe when you put a question out there - I have been floundering the last week or so wondering where to next; what is it that I really want to work towards. So thank you for a guide I can use to identify what is next for me!<br/>Karen Hello Craig – very useful post! Love the list of questions to use for reflection, something so practical.

So true!<br/><br/>How come that it sometimes is so hard to stay on track? I think this has a lot to do with enthusiasm and inspiration. Personally, I need to feel enthusiastic and inspired to follow things through - something inside me that doesn't let me forget the big picture, the finished house so to speak...<br/><br/>What do you do to lift your sprit and stay inspired and focused on your vision when things get tough?<br/><br/>Sometimes I think it actually helps just not to tear down anything one has built up already. Isn't crazy, we've got one or two bad days and manage to send all our good intentions down the drain within seconds... When things like that happen, I often feel it helps to step back and appreciate how far one has gotten already, maybe new inspiration flows from that after a while...? <br/><br/>Hug from Norway!<br/>Mia Hi Craig – loved this one! So true!

How come that it sometimes is so hard to stay on track? I think this has a lot to do with enthusiasm and inspiration. Personally, I need to feel enthusiastic and inspired to follow things through – something inside me that doesn’t let me forget the big picture, the finished house so to speak…

What do you do to lift your sprit and stay inspired and focused on your vision when things get tough?

Sometimes I think it actually helps just not to tear down anything one has built up already. Isn’t crazy, we’ve got one or two bad days and manage to send all our good intentions down the drain within seconds… When things like that happen, I often feel it helps to step back and appreciate how far one has gotten already, maybe new inspiration flows from that after a while…?

Hug from Norway!
