A reminder of what life is about....

Hello happy bloggers!

I know I've been M.I.A for a while, bad blogger!! Lol I've been busy moving house and going on holiday and generally living life =)
I felt the need to blog today about a recent book I bought called; "How to change your life: One day at a time" by Stuart Young. On first glance, its a self-help book and for all you cynics out there who say "i dont need help" its not as simple as 'its a self-help book'. It's so much more than that. I didnt think i was in a place where I particularly needed to change my life, but when i looked at my life, i reconsidered. I was unhappy at home, I was in debt, I was unhappy with the way I look, and I was just plodding along living life how im 'supposed' to. 
This book comes with a 90 day program called "Change your mindset; change your life" and this is where it started. I accepted the program as a volunteer to give feedback but what it ended up doing was making me see what my life could be, and what I really want my life to be. It was a serious eye-opener, and since then, I have moved out and live in a beautiful flat with my partner, I am in a job that i love, i am financially free and have more money than i thought i would, i have made new friends (oh hello there social life its good to see you again!), i finally went on holiday with my other half and had a fantastic time =), i made some very big decisions about my life and where i want it to go, and most importantly, I am really bloody happy with the way I look!! Its crazy how far I have come, and for a person that didnt consider myself to need help, it really helped and encouraged me to live my life the way i want it, to believe i can have anything i want and actually im thankful and grateful for the change. 
I have written this blog to promote the book as a way of reminding you why you are alive, what you are living for, what you actually want out of life and how you can get it; through simple day-by-day steps =) its something i look forward to everyday - just like my life! So please, if you do feel like you want to change, or even if you don't - consider this book as i believe everyone should be reminded of what life is about. You can have a read of the blog and buy a copy of the book through the website (if you decide you fancy it) then this is the following link: http://thechangeyourlifeblog.wordpress.com/

Hope it does wonders for you =) xx
