I saw this and LOVE what it says…..I share with you too:
Don’t force a fit. If something is meant to be, it will come together naturally.
When things aren’t going so well, take a break. Everything will look different when you return.
Be sure to look at the big picture. Getting hung up on the little pieces only leads to frustration.
Perseverance pays off. Every important puzzle went together bit by bit, piece by piece.
When one spot stops working, move to another. But be sure to come back later (see above).
The creator of the puzzle gave you the picture as a guidebook.
Variety is the spice of life. It’s the different colors and patterns that make the puzzle interesting.
Establish the border first. Boundaries give a sense of security and order.
Don’t be afraid to try different combinations. Some matches are surprising.
Take time to celebrate your successes (even little ones).
Anything worth doing takes time and effort. A great puzzle can’t be rushed.

Take responsibility and own your choices. If you want to obtain different results, you need to behave differently. If you want to lose weight, don’t berate yourself for what you weigh or your food choices. Make it different. Honor your body by making choices that reflect the value you hold of yourself. When Ben and Jerry’s calls your name, make the choice to value yourself by staying on track with your diet. 
Instead of munching out in front of the television, keep your hands busy and your thinking clear by picking up an engaging hobby such as knitting, scrapbooking, or doing the daily crossword puzzle. An even better idea? Get in your exercise for the day. Walk on your treadmill, ride a stationary bike, yoga, free weights, or some stretching. Anything that gets you moving instead of eating is a healthy, smart choice.
1. Keep your long-term goals in mind, and act accordingly.
People that are positive thinkers have dreams, set goals, make plans, follow through on their plans, and get results. Action is the key to getting results. The more we believe in ourselves, the more we are able to accomplish. 
Perhaps the most unselfish and loving thing we can do for others is to first love and accept ourselves unconditionally. This kind of selfishness can be a virtue. Think of something wonderful that you can do for yourself. Watch a favorite dvd, take a bubble bath with candles, hike to a special place, get a massage, cook your favorite meal just for yourself, look at an old photo album, take a vacation, or get a babysitter so you can spend an evening getting away from the kids. 
People stick with their diet and fitness plans better if they change their eating habits and exercise by partnering with someone. As we know, it is difficult to make changes much less make them permanently. To have your own coach work with you to create momentum and reach your goals enhances your success.
Food rules can be so limiting and restrictive. No wonder diet programs only work temporarily. You can create your own diet program through working with a weight loss coach. Here’s some food rules to ignore:
Of all the equipment or machines you will ever use, there is none more important or requiring more careful maintenance than your own body. Your body is miraculous yet you must treat it with care and proper maintenance. Would you drive your car without oil, good tires, and regular maintenance and expect to obtain high performance? Your body is one machine that, at least for now, you cannot trade in for a newer model if it should fail and break down. 
How much time do you spend taking care of your body? How much maintenance do you give to it in the form of healthy nutrition and adequate exercise? How careful are you to fill your body’s tank with the right, high quality fuel and keep out contaminants that will make it break down? Do you let your body operate regularly with exercise, activity, or movement?
Take as good of care of your body with high quality fuel and regular exercise as you would any other valued possession such as your car. The way to enjoy your life and live to the fullest is to take care of your body.
Are you feeling stressed? Are things just not going the way you want? Are you having a bad day? Maybe you’re feeling impatient, anxious or frustrated. For many of us, that’s enough to get our feet walking to the kitchen for a chill pill in the form of a less than heathy food choice that we’ll regret later.
