How to Make Every Day a Vacation

She looked happier than she'd been in months.

When my accountant came in for her weekly adjustment,
I could tell by the smile on her face and the
pep in her step that 'tax season' was finally
over. I asked about her vacation last week.

'Where'd you go?'

'Nowhere'

'What'd you do?'

'Whatever I felt like doing...and I didn't do anything
I didn't feel like doing. It was wonderful!'

That got me to thinking: what if every day was
that wonderful.

What if we did whatever made us feel good every day.

It could be, I guess...but something's happened to our
'feeler'.

Most of the stuff we do every day isn't helping us express or
experience more life, but we keep doing it anyway.

It would feel weird if you didn't. You've got routines, habits.
Some productive; some not-so.

That's why you're stagnating in one or more areas of your
life right now:

'I've never done it that way before.'
'I've always done it that way before.'

And you feel like you have to stay on that course, because
it's uncomfortable--scary--to do something different.

Why not start today. For the next few days, re-calibrate your
feeler. Look at your daily routines, habits, schedules and
ask yourself:

Do I really NEED to be doing this. Do I really WANT to be
doing this. Is this helping me become the person I want to be.

Feel the feeling of being bigger than you are (on the Inside,
and how good it would feel to be a little smaller around the
waistline).

Then start doing the ones you feel like doing and stop doing
the ones you don't feel like doing.

I know it's scary...but if you do it, it'll be exhilarating.

Live like You Mean it...

P.S. There's always a 'feeling' issue around food. Either
you feel like you should/shouldn't be eating what you're
eating...or what you're eating is making you feel like
crapola.

You feel better when you feed your body better.
And last month, I showed the Cavemaniacs a way to get rid
of their guilty food feelings once and for all.

If you test drive the Dr. Vince Caveman Club this month,
I'll throw in last month's newsletter as a special bonus.

So check it out here, and start living the life you've imagined:
