Turn our observations into inspiration?

The youngest of the nine got continuous exercise. The other eight got a tiny bit during the five-minute snow ball fight.

The ability to exercise our body is a wealth many neglect to cash in on.

Turn our observations into inspiration?

Inner voice: What? Because it’s really difficult you’re not even going to try? And you call yourself a leader?

Outsiders would say no

We shouldn’t be surprised at the eventual outcome of our wellness efforts. Are our most important health issues to solve the long-term ones?

Outsiders would say no.

Why?

Because America’s societal trends thrive on short-term, desperate commitment to change.

It’s the American way.

The urgency addiction.

Shared with a 14-year old last night why fussing over our physical wellness is so critical.

An object in motion tends to stay in motion. It doesn’t get more obvious than that.

Doubtful?

Spend a few days in a Senior Living facility or Nursing home.

What if this was not true?

Getting old and thinking old are choices.

The mental thinking part is the biggest and most important choice.

The physical, chronological aging part isn’t a conscious choice. It just happens.

Thinking is a choice we put on auto pilot. The default. The treadmill of life.

What if this was not true?

Do one thing today that’s easy

 

Do one thing today that’s easy.

For example, do one pushup (or whatever).

Tomorrow do the same.

Do this five days the first week.

The second week, try doing two pushups a day.

If that two is too much too soon, stay with one a day for another five days.

This is the easiest path to wellness.

Make your progress small and steady.

The goal is to never make it too hard to succeed.

The impossible goal should only be to never quit.
