Easily a three-hour “pill”

Leadership insight — Be the kind of leader you’d want yourself to follow.

Take your medication consistently to gain maximum benefits.

What if our pill was time-consuming to take?

Are we only willing to take care of our health if it’s easy, say swallowing a pill?

A good portion of every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday is spent running 8-12 miles, and later in the day, driving 40 minutes roundtrip for an 80-minute Golds Gym workout.

It ain’t the Magic that makes it work, it’s the hard work that makes it look easy.

Two ingredients that can morph into adrenaline

Disney conference speaker jeff noel — First one in the room, up behind the stage. Difficult to perceive, but the stage is two feet higher than floor.

Grateful for a few hours sleep, even if it was not nearly enough.

This happens sometimes.

This is where being well prepared and excited morphs into adrenaline.

Adrenaline is nature’s way to provide energy when and where needed.

We wouldn’t miss our medication

Universal Studios 2016 construction — Ran through Universal Studios after meeting Lee Cockerell at Starbucks.

We wouldn’t miss our medication, probably because it’s easy to swallow a pill.

Not until we see exercise as our (preventative) medication will we have the same sense of obligation.

A run and a gym visit.

The Doc has prescribed the strongest dose allowed by the FDA.

Who wants to?

Map My Run screen shot — Yesterday’s New Year’s Day run in 36 degree temps, plus wind chill.

College Track — Two Colleges near the Nursing home.

Nursing home shared resident room. — Shared Nursing home room. The TV remotes are one of their most important tools.

Nursing Home room — The emotions and thoughts from sitting here run from joy to sadness, from gratitude to confusion.

Did i want to run in 36 degree weather yesterday?

Could i have spent those 90 minutes in a more comfortable situation?

Who wants to watch TV all day, everyday?

Being around people 20 to 40 years older than you – if you pay close attention and aren’t medicated, distracted, or entertained – you become keenly aware that vibrant health is something to fight like hell for.
