A thriver's guide to physical health and wellness
World-class tips, tactics, strategies and serious motivation
It’s almost always something we never see coming that puts a wrench in our plans
The year end non-stop push to catch up can really take a toll. We all know and feel this, right? Or was I the only one this morning cutting their run in half because of something unexpected?
The point is we all have to figure things out.
And the toughest part is not giving in when the pressure is the greatest.
A short run is better than caving and not running at all.

my classroom job is to have C-suite folks rethink, and reimagine
Heck yeah I’m tired. Ran two miles in the dark this morning. Taught at Disney all day – burning the candle at both ends.
At least I ran. At least the client’s (President of North American division of multi-billion dollar global company) expectations were exceeded. At least I’m in bed early. And at least the brand promise didn’t get snuffed out (if I finish the other three blog posts after this one)…

desperation hides in the shadows, mostly undetected
Skimming Facebook, weirdly saddened by the photos. America is the only country in the world where people are searching for inner peace.
In third-world countries, people are searching for food.
When Americans let their health go it’s, well, sad.
There’s a hunger, a desperation, in the photos on my page that is hard to tell apart from starving children.
Yeah, that’s nebulous, but after some deep, reflective thought, the concept starts to appear.
You see, the only difference is the end goal, the desperation is the same. No?

Make what seems impossible, possible
Forrest Gump was a 1994 classic film about a special boy. He had no idea what he could not do. Because he lacked this knowledge, he proceed to do stuff he didn’t know he was not supposed to be able to do.

Great intentions to go see The Odd Life of Timothy Green this weekend… it came out in theaters yesterday, August 15…
No, there was no run yesterday even though there was time. Morning chores conflicted. Great intentions. Greater need to work. And so it goes. Relentless. Unstoppable. Figure it out or crumble under the pressure.

Who needs an Olympic medal? Can we get the same feeling of accomplishment by doing “our impossible”?
Remember these four lines from a great Olympic Games commercial:
What’s your impossible? What’s stopping you? Nothing! Right?

Congratulations to the most decorated Olympic athlete ever. Last night Michael Phelps did it. He earned his 19th Olympic medal. More than any athlete, any sport, male or female.
What’s your impossible? Whatever it is, keep moving forward. You can do it. You can! Period. But only if you don’t stop.
