Setting Our Own Pace In Life Part 2 Continue from Setting Our Own Pace In Life Part 1 It takes great courage to set our own pace in life. However, this courage stems from holding our personal values high along with our self-love. Our personal values are our personal honor codes that we uphold strongly no matter what happens around us, and no matter what others say about us. These are set of values that make us to feel great about ourselves and allow us to sleep soundly at night. By setting our own values, we inevitably set our own pace in life. There is no competition with others as we know that each step we take is solid and good as we march forward in building our dream life. As we take solid steps in building our dreams and achieving our goals, we must make sure that we take the time to take care of ourselves. Taking care of ourselves means putting our well being, and what makes us healthy and happy ahead of any external goals. We cannot achieve our dreams if we don’t have an efficient vehicle to get there. Just imagine that we are on our way to see the greatest wonder on earth; however, we are driving a clunky old car that has never been taken care of and is running out of gas. Doesn’t matter how hard we try to push the paddle, it is not going anywhere fast. We must take care of body, our mind and the needs of our spirit so we can get to see and enjoy the wonders of our lives. Setting our own pace is not only a key to bring more joy and peace into our lives, it is also a healthy way to achieve our dreams and goals. By adhering to our values, and taking each solid step with the pace of our choosing, we become happier and healthier. We learn to respect our inner strength, and not the goals set by external standards. Approaching life in this balanced manner might seem slower at first. However, just remember the wisdom from the tortoise and the hare story. Consistently taking solid steps is the key for success. You are a winner of life! Cara Newman “If I have been of service, if I have glimpsed more of the nature and essence of ultimate good, if I am inspired to reach wider horizons of thought and action, if I am at peace with myself, it has been a successful day.” ~ Alex Noble
