One brick (and one day) at a time builds the road to success (and wellness).

Dear Son, a funny thing regarding writing prolifically about diet, exercise, wellness, balance, and other health related topics is that the more you think and write about it, the better you come to understand and execute the basics.

Everyone has "valid" reasons why they can't find time to exercise and make healthier food choices.

Running, walking, swimming, dancing, rowing, yoga, gardening and all the other great forms of exercise don’t matter one iota if you don’t find a way to make it part of your lifestyle.

A picture is often worth 1,000 words. You don't have to go to the gym, but you do have to move.

Lane 8′s theme this month is “Similar Differences”. Our differences are similar. I love running, but will never push running on someone. I exercise at dawn, but would never say you have to do it then. They only thing I’ll insist on is that you insist on getting started and never quitting. The rest is just individual details. Fair enough?

Seriously, what would happen?

What would happen to American Baby Boomers if they found some form of moderate exercise, say walking, they could do four or five times a week, and they did this for three years?

A simple model for a adults to teach children about Life's Big Choices

Sometimes jeff noel thinks Mid Life Celebration readers think he has uncompromising self-discipline. Hardly. We all have the same basic gifts: a brain, a body, a spirit, bills, and stuff.

jeff noel proposes that we think, we move, we feel, we earn, we organize. How we do it doesn’t matter. What matters is are we effective? If we aren’t, we have two choices – change or don’t change.
