Three keys to a healthy, balanced life summed up in this tag line…

reThink – rePrioritize – reCommit

Contemplate what’s working and what’s not.

Reshuffle our deck.

Move forward with a new, wiser focus and purpose.

PS. Simple does not mean easy. But simple does mean what it says – simple.

It’s astonishing how remarkable others think

It’s astonishing how remarkable others think making time to exercise while traveling, and in adverse conditions, is.

Even more astonishing is why anyone would consider it remarkable.

If someone asked us this question, would we be happy with our answer?

Children watch their parents and subconsciously learn values

This was 2009, now our Son is almost as tall as me

 

If someone asked us these questions, would we be happy with our answers? Do we exercise regularly? How long has it been like that?

You know, I don’t ask these types of questions to stimulate our guilt, but rather to stimulate our conviction.

The photo was taken moments before driving to the airport. After a decade of slow and steady exercise, I astonishingly represented the USA at the Masters Track & Field World Championships in Finland.

And now in 2013, 14 years after reCommitting to health, I’m still running.

Choose the pain of the effort or the pain of the suffering?

A box of Kellogg's Krave cereal serves as a metaphor

Do we crave health or comfort?

 

Same photo as today’s midlife celebration post, different application.

Most decisions in life come down to choosing between two options. In this case the pain of the effort, or the pain of the suffering?

The discomfort and inconvenience of exercising to stay healthy. The discomfort and inconvenience of sitting around to stay comfortable.

Sooner or later it becomes crystal clear, life is not a dress rehearsal.

A dare all of us should give our highest priority, but we seem too busy

Father and Son celebrating a birthday

I worry sometimes how far away I am from doing it right

 

A dare all of us should give our highest priority, but we seem too busy.

Dare to be the adult you want your child to become. – Brene Brown

If not this year, when? How long can we use, “later”, before it becomes never?

Wellness: does it come down to this simple, but profound logic?

Most of us are on Facebook, but not so many on Twitter. Just read a Tweet about believing in God or not. The tweet said, It’s all or nothing.

Wellness: does it come down to this simple, but profound logic? All or nothing? After 53 years, I’m sayin’, yes! And praying this makes sense to you, and you, well, you know…

Crazy, but I write five different blogs everyday. The next one is about knowing what’s at the center of our emotional, spiritual core, click here.

Real life in real time isn’t a theory

Real life in real time isn’t a theory. Yet many of us search for theories to implement… endlessly.

Isn’t it time to “get real”?

So here’s the deal, this post is done, I’m heading out the door for a run (while the sun comes up). Will be back to finish Mid Life Celebration’s other three posts, then breakfast, then work at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

When there’s no time for regular exercise, do this

blood pressure

stats like this don’t fall from Heaven… it’s an unrelenting effort

 

Yesterday morning there was no time to run. What to do right? What do most people do?

Nothing.

I get it. Everybody does. Life is tough. Busy. Tiring.

So what did I do? Sucked it up and refused to miss going to the gym… after work.
