Motivation Monday by Magda

Why not wake up in the morning and make it great day every day! Everywhere I go people ask me why I am so positive? It’s a choice. It’s my belief. If you choose to be this way, nothing can stop you. The truth is, I have a ritual that I’d like to share with you for free. No webinar, no video, no membership costs!

Wake up today and get your heart rate up for twenty minutes. The rate you are looking to achieve is between 115-120 beats per minute. Go old school and put your hand on your wrist and count for sixty seconds. The pulse should be in this range. Once you have achieved that rate maintain it for twenty minutes. Run through the neighborhood, make love to your committed partner (heart health is better when you have a loyal partner) chase your toddler, jump for joy- just maintain.

A study conducted in the University of Georgia concludes that if you exercise moderately, three times a week before your day begins, you mitigate daily stress and protect your mood from being disturbed. This type of exercise does more to boost thinking than thinking does! Just twenty minutes a day creates a mood enhancing effect which translates to a happier more positive YOU!

Everyone can do this. Like keeping positive, it’s a choice. I wish you only healthy choices. It’s never too late! This way, nothing can break your stride. Stride, I can’t believe I run marathons! Amazeballs!

and if you don’t know, it’s better than coffee,

This blog has been more than what I bargained for. People do scream my name. the waters did rise and I did have to build walls. I did fall in love. This time, there is no pain. I met so many wonderful people. It has been surreal.
“dare to be different’ happened because I lost what I knew to be mine. I lost my marriage, my family, my normalcy. I was dared.
I chose to accept the dare and be different. My son chose this slogan for my company and these words mean much to both him and I. they ring true every day.
I was the girl that kept wearing the same black dress. And then Marilyn came into my life. Her army, michelle, lauren and christina started texting me. Poking me, rebuilding me. Simple kindness and Jimmy Choos will cure all ailments. Studio LX became part of my firm. Old friends came out of hiding, Bibi and christy made a Splash and introduced me to Ivette. We did a television promo in everything Alexis. Now, I was ready.
The choice to quit smoking, saved a lot more than my life. It gave me purpose to pay it forward. I became humble. I am grateful. stopsmokingstartliving is my duty now. Shacky started me moving with this movement. That’s a great record to make.
My body is my temple, my soul is hard to touch. Body & Soul opened during my transformation and is a great part of my success. Pharrell and Kim Kardashian were memories only a big guy like Alex can afford me.
Doctor Dribble walked into B&S and my heart simultaneously. he brought with him a new method. A new method of living and a new method of loving. Without any hesitation, he is my favorite client.
I am a beast. I am a marathoner. (Roman likes to clarify half- marathoner) I have abs. I squat properly. I swing. The credit is mine and the venue in which this took place is Newton’s Method.
Chrsitie’s fitness fuel revolutionized brownies. How does chocolate become so sexy? #eatmeguiltfree

Suzel Vazquez MD cuts like a non-invasive laser. Impressive list of clientele. Marlyne Alexander Photography memorialized MLB and the greater Miami area. Unique Me Magazine elected A Femme Fatale that turned out to be an angel, a fellow blogger.
Not only that, they discovered a Man with Heart, my heart to be exact.
Throughout this blog, I did many good deeds and they deeded me back. Its no cliché that when you help someone else, you help yourself the most.
I am still one big bang away from the end of this year. I will be rapping up two more goals on my list before 2013 comes to a close.
I celebrated Hanukkah. Why not? He loves me, I love him – it’s cool.
As all greatness, it’s a constant work in progress. My site is being revamped. I was told I cannot blog for a month or two. Haaa!
The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do. #iwillblogon
Im not sure how, not sure when but please keep checking in- I will be back.
In the meantime, we can set up camp on facebook temporarily or maybe ill pop a squat on a friendly website. What I do know, is that I will come back stronger, larger and better in 2014. I’m dope like that, hard headed.
Till then, raise a glass and know that YES, I did it all!!

and if you don’t know, I’ve only just begun,
