“If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with success unexpected in common hours.”  --Henry David Thoreau

 

This month in our "What Motivates You to Move?" session, we'll talk about how to stay the course. Any time you embark on a new venture, it's very exciting at the beginning. But after even a few weeks of working towards your goal, you may experience a false sense of security. Remember that everything is hard before it gets easy, and sometimes we are lured into thinking that we don't have to work as hard to "stay with it." We will walk through some tactics to help us stay on course. We'll provide journals for you to keep track of your progress towards achieving your dream. We also have a lending library of motivational, inspirational books for you to help you on your path. 

 

So join us  - a group of like-minded people on Tuesday, March 8, at The PULSE on State Street in Boise - people who can help inspire, challenge, and encourage you to "Move" from where you are now to where you want to be. Whether it's singing, running, walking, drawing, eating healthy foods, making a career change, or just spending more time in nature - we'll share with you some ways to Get Motivated to Move.

 

Call 208-258-7769 with any questions and to let us know that you want to come and BE Motivated! (There is no cost to attend, but we'd love to know that you're coming.)
