 Be thankful for what you have.
Be hopeful for the joy to come. But most of all, be present in each moment. Every day is gift. How we choose to use it, is up to each one of us. We hope this is an encouragement to you, as you think about the week to come. -Your friends at Concord Pharmacy!

 What do you want to conquer?
Eating healthier? Exercising more? Overcoming an addiction? Finishing your education? Being a better parent? Being a better communicator? Spending more time with your family? Laughing more than you complain? Having healthy relationships? Drinking more water? Raising your self-esteem? What do you want your legacy to be? You might relate to one, some, or all of these. You might even have more you'd add to the list. The reason we started one, is we are launching a journey at Concord Pharmacy that we'd love you to join us on. We all have areas of life we want to conquer. We want to get better at some things, stop doing others, and make a positive impact on the world around us. So if you are game, make sure you stay connected to us on facebook and here on our blog. We aren't totally sure how this will all play out...but the goal is to be the encouragement we all need. We'll be here for you, and all of us for one another. As we all make progress, here is how we can all think about it. "I'm CONCORDing it!"... (with my friends @ Concord Pharmacy.) A reminder that we are here for you, as you make your progress. And also a reminder that it is way more fun to do something like this on a team. Together. In relationship. Being part of a community. And for the moments when you've overcome something? A milestone moment in your life? "I CONCORD IT!"...@ Concord Pharmacy. So what do you think? Are you in? Stay tuned...the fun is just beginning!!!  There was a man who went for it.
Before he even knew his would be short, he took advantage of it. Time. What can you do as you prepare to start another week, that will leave a mark of creativity, innovation, and compassion? Sure there are obstacles, doubters, and a shortage of resources. But don't let the unknown be your undoing. Time isn't guaranteed, and sometimes the irony of a magazine title is the reminder we need to start. The world around you, needs to be better off because of you. That happens when time isn't just something we count as it passes. That happens when we realize it is of the essence. Have a FANTASTIC start to your week! -From your friends @ Concord Pharmacy. As you continue on your journey of developing a healthy habit this holiday season, you may run into a moment when it gets really hard. A temptation to cheat, cave or quit seems so overwhelming that you won't be able to hold it off. This quote by Robert Ingersoll tells us what we need to hear at that point. When we are completely focused on ourselves we can end up in a very isolated place. However…if we can be intentional about serving, helping and coming alongside someone else in their time of need it changes everything. What felt so hard all of a sudden seems manageable. What seemed too difficult to stick with now doesn't feel that way at all. Journeys worth taking are never short or easy…and so much of what makes them rewarding and beautiful to experience once you get to your destination is the journey that got you there. So as you go back at it tomorrow…be encouraged. Every step you take matters. If you happen to take a couple backward…go take some steps forward to helping someone else…and it will take you forward on your journey as well. 
To build off of our post yesterday, this quote from Nathaniel Emmons is great perspective. Instead of only focusing on what you are trying to stop doing, give yourself something to start doing. When a habit serves to protect you, and positions you to be healthy, that's a win. When a habit hurts you, and tears you down, it's time to simply walk away from it. And here is where you create momentum… by leveraging the time you would have given to the bad habit, and double down on developing the good one.
