Serious Injury Recovery

If you exercise, you are eventually going to hurt yourself. Minor or major, it’s bound to happen. Minor stuff almost isn’t worth talking about. But the serious stuff, the stuff that could make you give up….

When you have a comprehensive approach to serious injury recovery, and there’s nothing more the Doctor can do, then your job is to do all you can, for as long as it takes.

Over time, you can experiment with reducing or eliminating certain treatments or remedies. One step at a time, you ween your body back to your natural state before your injury.

And you should say this until you’re blue in the face, “Stay healthy, have fun!”

Not Sure What To Say

Will you be exercising today? You know, walking, jogging, biking, rolling, swimming, yoga, gym, yard work, or any other derivative?

I’m really not sure what to say when I encounter people who don’t do anything to promote their physical health.

I feel guilty. Is that crazy?

What do you think?

Ok, I said what I wanted to say. Now it’s time to head to a quiet place and pray for additional guidance.

How Is Your Health?

Do you find yourself being interested in this question, or do you quickly change the subject?

If you’re interested, great.

If you change the subject, you have an awesome opportunity not to.

I’m not you, but if I was, I wouldn’t wait until January 1st to make a resolution. I’d be formulating it right now, working slowly and steadily at making enough small changes that come January 1, 2011, you’ll feel like this is the year you won’t fail.

Have a great Monday. Are you heading over to jeff noel.org?

Have You Tried Acting?

You can (but make excuses not to) embrace my tag line here at Lane 8: If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.

Or you can subscribe to a more famous person’s quote. Either way, we’re saying the same thing.

“All that is necessary to break the spell of inertia and frustration is this: Act as if it were impossible to fail.” – Dorothea Brande

Dorothea Brande wrote the quintessential how-to-write book, Becoming a Writer, which was among the first to address every writer’s core problem: How to sit down and let the words flow. Her book, published in 1934, remains in print today.

Where Are You Going With This?

Too Bad There's Not An Express Lane For Self-Discipline

People are very often annoyed by people who know where they are going. It’s easy to hate people who are focused and have enormous self-discipline. Isn’t it? I mean, what part of that is hard?

Those self-motivated go-givers are always having things go their way.

They get all the breaks.

And they have none of the challenges we have. Right?

Truth be told, their lives might be more challenging than yours.

It’s just that they’ve figured out that the two choices we all get to make are the two choices in yesterday’s post.
