"Girl, it's a rough world out there. I got to protect myself."
Wouldn't it be great if we lived in a world without temptation? No lasagna commercials, no skinny models to piss us off, no uncooperative mates and friends--just peace and love. Oh well. Truth is, temptations specifically designed to throw us off our program are lurking behind every corner, candy wrapper, and women's magazine cover. But we can fight. We must take responsibility for meeting our goals. That means building support mechanisms into our life. Look for a support group, a new job if need be, new friends. Get the kids to buy in to what you're doing for yourself. Tell them what you need them to do and say. Don't have junk food lying around the house. Try keeping fresh fruit around instead. For all the factors that you can control, take charge. And for all those that you can't, go with the flow.
I am going to protect myself from anything that would undermine my progress today.
