Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Retired Disney Institute Keynote Speaker and Prolific Blogger. Five daily, differently-themed personal blogs (about life's 5 big choices) on five interconnected sites.
When I came home last night from visiting Epcot at Walt Disney World, my Google Alerts captured this entry for Lane 8, from Finland Travel Vacations.
Watching that video made me want to share this one, a new world record, also shot in Lahti, Finland at last year’s WMA World Championships.
If you’re interested in competing at the 2010 Master’s Track & Field National Championships, here’s a link for housing information. I know, no one cares about the housing information.
But we are a curious bunch, aren’t we? Is it human nature?
So, I’m banking on your curiosity. To click through and to follow where this Summer’s story may lead.
Staying healthy and having fun, for our entire lives, is one of life’s biggest challenges. A small injury can throw us off track. A Family emergency, or a long business trip can do the same.
Or, maybe a serious injury, like Plantar Fasciitis can last two years or more. Eventually things get better, if we don’t give up.
The next five weeks will be very interesting, and very tempting.
Yesterday a friend said I was probably the only person who thinks running and sweating is fun. It was their response after reading a conference agenda that started the day with an optional “fun run”, in the Florida heat.
Sitting here writing this second of five blogs before I go for a five-mile run (yes, in the sweaty Florida heat), the fun won’t come soon enough. Partly because this is my “Monday”, meaning the past two days have been active rest days.
How can you become motivated to be focused and disciplined to feel the same way?
Man, wish I had an answer for you. Part of the root cause of my joy is the feeling I get when my clothes fit comfortably. When I can be active and not feel “old”. When I enjoy an ice cream cone without an ounce of guilt, like yesterday.
Everyday Health sent an email yesterday that included an easy, quick 12 question test to see how well you are aging.
What surprised me the most is how fundamental the questions were and how easy they should be to answer.
This will frustrate some of you, because what’s missing in these two secrets is the how to do it.
You want someone to come along and tell you how you should do things. “Just give me the silver bullet.” I know, I feel the same way.
Wake up people. You MUST find your own way. And another secret, your way will need to change through the years. There is no one right way.
But for now, more than anything else, here are your top two secrets:
Happy to reveal these secrets to you, free of charge no less.
Have a nice, healthy day. It’s totally up to you.
