Are You Living Life To The Fullest?
Do you ever wonder if you’re thriving or surviving? This has always been an intriguing question to me because I never really understood what it meant. I finally went and looked up the definition of thrive (duh, why didn’t I think of that sooner???) and it makes perfect sense now:
1. to prosper; be fortunate or successful.
2. to grow or develop vigorously; flourish
(Source: Dictionary.com)
I don’t really care for definition #1, but #2 – yep, that hits the nail on the head for me when I think of thriving in terms of life, business, relationships, etc.! Another way to think about thriving that makes sense to me is living life to the fullest; I mean if you’re thriving wouldn’t you be living life to the fullest? I think so.
In 45 Ways To Live Life To The Fullest, numbers 6, 7, & 8 are ones I really try to work on every. single. day. #6 is especially hard because that’s what I did for 90% of my life, so changing that habit is hard. Then again, change is just hard (but worth it). And #12 on the list goes right along with 6.

Yep, #6 can be tough. I wanted to complain about something today but then I realized it was small potatoes. Right now, I’m focused on #14. After years of too much junk food, I’m trying to change my eating habits. I want to fill my body with healthy foods that energize me. 🙂

I don’t know about you, Avery, but I’m always working on the changing eating habits. It seems to be a constant struggle for me…but one of these days I hope it finally “clicks” and I stay on a healthier track! Part of living a life to the fullest, for me, is being healthy and being able to get outside and do all the things I want to do and right now my weight is stopping me from so much!
