Planning and nutrition

This past week I have been in Seattle for training for work. I have been taking a SharePoint training which I really enjoy I just feel like I'm still putting together the pieces. I still ahven't wrapped my head around this yet. There are so many pieces to be put together.

Anyway, other than that, being out of town creates a difficult situation for me. I have a hard time eating well when I'm eating out. It is all psychological because obviously it isn't a physical problem. It is the enjoyment of eating out and eating good tasting food, the other is that the portions are so big and I guess I don't want to it to go to waste. It's hard for me. And I have to admit my motivation is low right now. I am rather kind of burnt out on watching things so closely but I'm noticing my habits are going back to my prior habits. I guess I don't need to watch it so close and could ease off on that and just work on good habits. That might be the best strategy at this point.

I have been listening to The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People and have been trying to apply the principles there to my life because I feel like I'm trying to balance so many things and I feel like my stress level goes over the top sometimes because I have a hard time prioritizing things.

Habit 1 is Be Proactive
Habit 2 is Begin with the End in Mind

...I want to find the book. I know I have it because I think I can use these principles to help me focus on my goals.
