Success can be defined as living intentionally

Success can be defined as living intentionally. You know, thinking about what you want out of life and striving through life’s ups and downs to get it.

It also involves tremendous creativity in handling unplanned surprises, setbacks, and failures.

For instance, someone who devotes great time and attention to eating a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and getting adequate rest will fare much better than someone who lives it up and follows their pleasures.

Throughout life, both people will go through hell because it’s unavoidable.

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.

 

What i wouldn’t give to have some insider tips

DCL Disney character party
Some “people” never age.

 

We had 19 Family members from my wife’s side join us at the Senior Living Facility for Easter lunch.

The oldest, my Mother-In-Law at 93 and the youngest at three months old.

Plus everything in between (5, 15, 17, 20’s, 50-70’s).

We had some good laughs.

We all had some private thoughts.

And the whole time, i reflected on how important a balanced approach to life seems to be. Is it the best way to age?

Obviously, i could be insanely off course because no one is advising me and i have zero experience being a 60, 70, 80, or 90-year old.

Untreated allergies makes it challenging to thrive

BFO (blinding flash of the obvious)… Staying motivated looks easy for motivated people. It’s not. Not until an object gets in, and stays in, motion. We build our reputation based on one of two things:

  1. Excuses
  2. Tenacity

i get two monthly allergy injections, one in each arm. But (a long list of excuses reasons) i stopped getting allergy injections nearly a year ago.

Discovered yesterday that my last injections were March 2015. Today is Feb 4, 2016.

Seeing Doctor Bagg today to get back up the horse.

i was so consistent for perhaps 10 years.

i thought i had licked my allergies.

Big mistake.

My allergies to plants, pollens, certain foods, as well as a few miscellaneous items like dust mites, are debilitating.

i forget this fact.

Now it’s back to weekly injections. Yes, weekly. And i need three shots instead of two – allergic to more than before.

It takes close to a year to build up to monthly maintenance shots.

Live and learn.

We broke a high temperature record for November 9. In 1911 the record high was recorded at 90.  Yesterday we hit 91.

The critical success factor for thriving is to stop making excuses about things no one can control. (Tweet that)

Like yesterday, the record high temperature.

Stay hydrated, run without the sun, and find a million creative ways to stay motivated.

The gift of freedom to learn your own physical lessons.

Stay hydrated.

How many of us take this seriously?

This is a leading indicator for how seriously we take our physical wellbeing.
