The key to ensure better things happen more often

work life balance speakers
Yesterday a couple minutes into an hour bike ride to the gym.

Was on the phone with a potential client at 630am yesterday, while i took these pictures.

Stopped the bike to capture a group photo.

 

Over focus on the same things others under focus on or ignore.

When you make a commitment to do this every day for the rest of your life, better things happen more often.

But they don’t happen on demand.

They happen organically, in due time.

Sustainable growth, progress, and change cannot be rushed.

Less than an hour ago i woke up and weighed myself (twice) like i always do.

Hit 157.0 for the first time in years.

i’ve been stuck in the 160-164 range for way longer than i wanted.

Here’s the good news: while stuck there, at least it didn’t get worse. Holding steady, even if it’s a higher weight, is superior to progressively heavier weights. i could be 180 right now had i not been able to hold steady.

It took everything i could bring to each day to hold steady.

And in the last 10 days…a remarkable downturn.

In the 151 – 153 range, vibrancy is at it’s highest.

How did you get to a physical 10?

Glacier National Park forest fire damage
You literally wouldn’t be able to see the sky under normal circumstances.

 

Glacier national Park hiking trial
There would be no mountain view under normal circumstances.

 

There is no view of personal wellness and thriving, under normal circumstances.

To experience thriving, you have to be willing to not do ‘normal’. You have to fight like hell initially to reframe your mindset and habits.

On a scale of 1-10 (10 is best) how do you rate yourself for achieving consistently remarkable health metrics (blood pressure, resting heart rate, BMI, flexibility, core, strength, endurance, rest)?

How did you get to a 10?

Do you spend every day at a 10?

What do you do to stay at a 10?

What would you do?

dog bite to the hand
Put my hand out, palm down, to offer the dog a chance to sniff me, like i’ve done for 50 years. The puncture was not deep, but it did puncture.

This is a second location where there was just a scrape.

 

Out of nowhere, we can easily become blindsided.

We never saw it coming.

It can change the course of our lives forever.

Last night’s dog bite to the hand was a complete shock.

The odd’s of rabies are minuscule, but they’re not zero.

Is there a Doctor anywhere in the world

Disney nature
Yesterday morning about 6:45AM, near Magic Kingdom, Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground, and my home.

 

Is there a Doctor anywhere in the world who wouldn’t recommend regular exercise, a balanced diet, and adequate rest?

How’s that serving you this year?

Our resting heart rate is probably tied to our body weight

Disney wellness speaker
yesterday morning sitting on the couch.

 

The photo above captured yesterday’s mid-morning heartrate. It was an Apple Watch prompt to take a minute to “breathe”. So i did. Haven’t run in months.

A few minutes ago, i got a verbal agreement that Easter 2017 is the beginning of a new life.

Not to lose weight, but to become more active.
