Week 45 of 2013 and the power of 8 

12/03/2013 By Frances Koulos Leave a Comment

Week 45 of 2013 starts tomorrow which means that the year is nearly at a close. 8 weeks though is a long enough time to achieve those goals that you had promised to accomplish 45 weeks ago when 2013 was commencing. In 8 weeks you can have two periods which is important for those trying to conceive whether through the usual methods (date night, some wine and sweet nothings) or through assisted conception (injections, donor, nurse phoning with instructions). In 8 weeks you can lose 4 to 8 kilograms through calorie controlled eating and exercise. In 8 weeks you can finish off most of a university semester and be closer to graduation. In 8 weeks you only have 10 more months before you are divorced from that controlling husband who tells everyone how bad you are. The number 8 on its side is the infinity sign. You can go on and on ad infinitum doing the same stuff and getting nowhere. The same New Years resolutions, the same relationships with arseholes and the same excuses which are really about you believing yourself to be a victim. Nothing will change for you unless you make a change in your thinking and behaviour. The shape of the 8 is symmetrical and balanced. There is an equilibrium in its form and its function. It happily rests on its laurels vertically and horizontally. Can you say that about yourself? Have a think about what you would like to do in the remaining 8 weeks of this year.  Can you do it alone?  Whose help do you need?  Start today as 8 will soon turn into 7 which is not necessarily a luckier number to work with.  Wouldn’t you like to hear the story of a woman 8 weeks in love? 8 weeks pregnant? 8 kilograms lighter?  I am fortunate to hear client stories like these. If you need help to rewrite your story for the end of 2013 then please contact me.
