Star or Guardian Philosophy
Star / Guardian percentage is 80 / 20.
80 = Want to build a stronger foundation and focus on myself a bit more. “Practice what I preach”
20 = Sharing my journey with others to motivate them. This helps me to feel more accomplished in my own journey.
Check-In
“Self assessment of where I am at, what has happened and where I am going”.
InMyWorld …
I want to continue my journey to an overall increased awareness of health and well being and it is important in my life. Currently I have a sprained ankle and I am working on getting it back to normal.
InHelpingAnother…
others around me have seen my changes in my journey, however have not taken noticeable action as a result of my efforts.
InBetterTimes…
I would be more conscious of my nutrition. Last week or so I have let it slip. I wont let an injury demoralise me and will use this as an opportunity to develop other weaknesses into strengths.
