About Me

“The moment inbetween what you once were, and who you are now becoming, is where the dance of life really takes place.” ~ Barbara De Angelis "Nothing happens without personal transformation." I decided one day I wanted to change. I wanted more from life. I realized that if you want more, YOU have to make it happen. You have to go to it and create it. The most powerful weapon against a mediocre life is practice. And just like a fire, the human spirit needs to be lit again each day.

Action v. Apathy

Fear from John Colver's Blog

This blog post spoke to me today...especially the video.  Wow!

I have anxiety disorder, and all of these thoughts come to me almost every day. 

Anxiety is a type of fear.  I hate it, but it is a part of my chemical make-up.  I have it, but it does not define me though.

I believe that overcoming anxiety is more than just taking meds.  You have to put yourself out there and face the fears!  You can train your mind to think differently.  You are what you think.  I truly believe it.  If you can change the way you think, you can change who you are.

Nike says "Just Do It!"  I say, "You CAN do it, Sue." 

And..."I like who I am when I try." - from a yoga t-shirt meaning it is better to try something v. giving up or never trying at all.
