I love goals. Last year, one of my goals was to start a podcast. Goals are important. Period. Practices are too. Practices, the things we do day in and day out, shape our lives. They even give opportunity to goals because without practices, goals are never accomplished. When I swam three times a week, swimming became a key practice that helped me reach my goal of strength and a healthy weight. The practice of taking my meds daily gives me life. If I forget my anxiety med too many days in a row, we all pay for it. I drink water every day, a pitcher full. Without this practice, I lack the energy and stamina I need for the life I want to live. Practices give life to us, in turn, we can give life to others. Listen in and consider the practices that give you life. Make a list as you listen or after. Celebrate they gift they are to you. Choose them anew with purpose. Then consider what practices you need to live the life you want to live. It's never too early. It's never too late. We can always start where we are.
