In Change We Believe!

Continuing with the theme of New Year's Resolutions comes the idea and hope of change. Change can often times be scary, thwarting, and challenging as each of us individually has to accept all that entails changing. For some that is easy, for others it can be quite a task.

I recently read an amazing book entitled Who Moved My Cheese! This quick, short read tells a story about four characters and their ability to handle- or lack there of- change. The characters include two mice named Sniff and Scurry and two little people named Hem and Haw. The gist of the story is that we all have simple and complex parts of ourselves. We each need to be able to identify who we are (Sniff, Scurry, Hem or Haw) and use that to our advantage to be able handle and move along with change. Whether you apply the message from this book to your personal life, work, dietary habits, and/or healthy living is up to you! It's a cute story and at the very least it gets you thinking about how you can (easily) do things just a little bit better. Recognition is probably the first step! (Aka letting go of denial! :)) Happy reading!
