He walked 20 miles to get to work (80 sec video)

 

He walked 20 miles to get to work.

Because his car broke down.

He was part of a moving company crew and it would be his first day on the job.

He had some choices.

He chose to show up on time.

His only option to do that was to start walking at midnight.

This story aired last night at the end of ABC Evening News with David Muir.

Twenty miles.

In the dark.

i can’t and i won’t are enemies

Anyone can write a book and self-publish it, but most won’t. Photo: Summer 2017 in Glacier National Park…Lake McDonald in the background with smoke from a forest fire. i am an expert in fear and doubt – it took me 30 years to write the first sentence, two more to finish, and then an additional two more years to have the courage to publish.

 

You are the CEO of You, Inc.

What do you think a CEO is supposed to do?

Why?

Let me guess.

Your answer is the one you’ve been taught to regurgitate.

But you’re balking.

What are you afraid of?

Are you afraid of going off alone?

Everyone knows straying from the well-worn path, the “tried and true academic recipe”  may lead to failure.

But not straying may lead to regret.

Which do you fear more?

Pick the toughest battle.

Fight regret.

And remember…

i can’t and i won’t are enemies.

i can’t works insidiously to pose as i won’t.

You can’t or you won’t.

Which one is it?

Hope it never happens again

Uh-oh.

 

Hate to admit it.

A second consecutive week with only one day (instead of three) of exercise.

This comes on the heels of a 14-day stretch of zero biking or gym.

It happens.

Hope it never happens again.

Will our perseverance fade or can we protect it?

Yesterday, election day 2016.

 

Lehigh Valley Airport
The woman guiding the plane also helped us check our luggage. This would never happen at a big airport.

 

Flying in an airplane
Chasing the sunset to Orlando Sanford Airport.

 

Traveled the second half of yesterday from Allentown to Walt Disney World. Back to our home routine this morning.

First run in seven days.

Between the cold and the travel disruptions from our routine, excuses for not exercising are easy to make.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
