Because the state of your heart = the state of your life
I love the saying, “If you want to be generous, it’s good to be rich.”

Since I began this weight-loss project, a bunch of kind folks have sent me information about books and other resources on the topic that they have found useful.

There’s a Fundamental Mistake at the core of every loss of heart:
Believing that if you can’t see a way towards achieving your heart’s longing, it means that there is no way forward.
