While taking my walk around the park this morning I was playing a game in my head. Trying to think what I could come up with that would be useful to better our diabetes management using the letters ‘d i a b e t e s’. Well, sometimes I have to look for entertainment hoofing an hour around the same route. 

So here’s what I came up with. Not poetry, but something to think about. Ask yourself:

D – Do

I – I

A – Aim (for)

B – Better (Management)

E – Expecting

T – Trouble (or)

E – Expecting

S – Success?

What we expect is generally what we create. If you typically expect you’re going to fail somehow, you probably do. Just today expect success. See if it makes a difference. I promise I won’t know, but you will.
