Reality Bites!

by Kris Pitcher

Hello, my name is Kris and I can't be trusted around peanut butter. There. I've said it. I can't really be trusted around anything...but that big jar with it's blue label, yellow letters bleeding into red. It's a giant jar of yumminess. I want to put my spoon in and pony up to the counter.

The thing is, reality bites. If you know you have an item you need a "safety word" with...you probably shouldn't have that item in the house. Or garage. Or basement. Or in the car.

You might want to strike it from your existence. It doesn't mean you're weak. It means you're creating an environment you can be successful in.  Now, if you can handle measuring out your level teaspoon (P-A-L-E-A-S-E!) why then by all means keep that giant jar of Adams front and center staring you in the eye every time you open the refrigerator.

If you can't...well then, enough said. There's no reason to put temptation in your path. It's far better to think something through and go get it in the case of a treat. If your home is your castle, why not make it your castle of success. Create the environment you need to succeed.

A bite of this and a sneak of that will have your slacks snug in a snap. Wow! By all means don't kid yourself, reality bites!
