Off the Wagon(phone blog)

I totally blew it all away last week! Somehow I lost 2 lbs last weigh in last week but I ate those 2lbs back and then some for my birthday weekend. Update on the birthday date to follow.
I just worked out for the first time this week! It felt great! I got cast in a musical and we start choreography next week so that should help with the weekly workouts. But this week I am all about the eye of the tiger!
I am logging my food and drinking my water as well.
I feel like I am never going to get these ten pounds off. I am tempted to do the shake diet but I know it is not long term. And I love food too much!
I have gotten further in my exam studies so that I can focus my attention to the new musical. I can't wait! I have wanted to do a musical since I moved to Charleston!
So I am typing this and sweating on my keyboard! Gotta go study and take a shower!

I finally got my name in lights!

Image
I did it!  I got my name up in lights on a marquee after 1 year of working very hard to be heard in the Philly music scene!   Last year at the Dewey Beach Music Conference, I set the intention to the owner that I would see her next year and that I'd be performing.   I remember her saying to me "OK."(and the tone was "Who is this chick?!")  But one year later, I saw folks noticing my name on the sign while I was waiting to perform my original songs to a packed house at Jimmy's Grille in Dewey Beach, DE. I know it wasn't SXSW or the Grammy's yet but I had arrived in my own personal achievement.  This was a challenge that I took on and did it out of pocket and sheer grit and determination.   Manifestation works when you put yourself to work.   I didn't just wish on a star and hope to get selected.   I took to getting out to the local music venues, networked my tail off, played out and practiced all year long.  2 weeks before I was abou

Oops I Did It Again!

Image
A coaching colleague of mine just called me out yesterday! I was filling her in on what was going on in the last few months.  I shared that I worked myself into the energy point of no return.  I was burning out.   She quickly pointed out that at the same time last year, I was telling her a similar story about how I hustled so hard I needed to take a break.  She highlighted that it appears that August is the season for slowing down.  But I shouldn't be working so hard until I'm at the brink of burn out AGAIN.   Oops! I did it again.  I got lost in the game.     What's interesting is that we focus on bad habits like smoking, over eating, negative self talk but I think we forget that how we work can also be a habit that needs close attention.   My name is Joyel Crawford and I'm a workaholic. I hustle until I can't flow no mo.   Building your own business is not easy or cheap.  I learned that for 18 years I had the support of an international bra

His profile bragged that he was a bad boy who works for the Government so he's not a stalk
