The math is the math, body

bicycle plates
These dishes were the first ones we purchased as newlyweds, inspired by our bicycle honeymoon trip. By the way, they are neither dishwasher nor microwavable safe.

In yesterday’s math equation regarding possibly speaking on Vancouver Island in October, the usual decision making criteria:

Date, location, fee, client.

Date: October 14. October is still a strong hurricane month. Hurricane Milton on October 5-10, 2024. Strongest hurricane on record. Ever. We raced at the last minute from Banff to Orlando and i swore i would never get in that situation again. Ever. This is why we did not stay in Glacier last September nor plan to visit this September. Nope.

Location: My math conservatively shows, with no travel glitches, a 17-hour travel day. Even if split into two days, that’s two 8+ hour travel days just to get to the hotel. Nope.

Fee: Reasonable retail price. However, subtracting the 20% speakers bureau fee, the travel expenses, the Canadian withholding tax (new), and my IRS tax obligation…nope.

Client: This one is the only definite win. A definite yes. Big Speak’s Tracy and Amy are wonderful.

Got Disney humid morning walks?

discomfort
Walking this morning in the cold and dark was literally the last thing i wanted to do. But i did it anyway, with my wife.

Today’s photo is from a Winter month, year unknown.

Yesterday’s walk, May 14, was warmer than i predict May will be at 7:30am.

In the past week, thanks to the our Disney humidity and the week of rest in France, getting my sweat back on.

Sweat like you mean it.

Not there yet but see a hopeful resurrection.

Reprise: Random photo day, body

Spring Grove, PA
Heading West on Route 116, take a right at my Grandparent’s Main Street Spring Grove, Pennsylvania row home (and the Ford dealership) to drive a few blocks to the (old) High School, the one my dad and i attended.

Feeling happy, healthy, and alive.

Not much more to ask for.

quote about aging
Aging is natural and unstoppable. How we age is largely our choice. And, obviously, there are exceptions. Few people are exceptions.

Aging.

A blessing some never experience.

Aging.

An adventure.

Aging.

An inconvenience.

Aging.

The ultimate extreme sport.

Habits and ambitions, body

Disney Speakers jeff noel
Our clocks are always ticking. Over-focus on healthy habits that we used to under-focus on or ignore.

Culture equals habits.

Habits equal results.

Therefore culture equals results.

Now, transfer this insight to health:

Personal health culture equals habits.

Habits equal results.

Personal health equals results.

The math is simple to follow…

Poor results from poor habits.

Good results from good habits.

Great results from great habits.
