Staying in the now...

It seems that anytime I set my sights on a goal, I immediately begin to think about all of the circumstances where it "feels" impossible to stick to the goal. For example, if I think about again committing to a vegetarian diet, I start feeling anxiety about traveling the world and not eating meat. It is true that when I travel I feel that it's important to take part in the cuisine as much as possible, the reality of my current life is that I am not traveling but am at home, living my normal, everyday life. So, instead of dealing with any obstacle when it arises, I, instead obsess over the possible obstacles. This is defeating any goal before I even commit to it.



Something for me to keep in mind as I move forward in The Integrity Project is to stay present and checked in to my real moments... not what could be or will be, but what my life is at the moment.
