Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.

What’s our obligation to exercise even under extenuating circumstances?
Life on the road can be a bit of a broken record…
Three for three days (of four) so far without exercise.
Life is hard.
Figure it out.
And be flexible, forgiving, creative, and determined the entire way.

Attitude helps us manage temptation.
Attitude can also change on a dime when the pressures to stay fit tempt us to cut something out of our schedule.
And exercise seems to be the first thing we can stop when our lives are overloaded with time commitments.
Not exercising when we know it to be a non-negotiable, feels like lying.

Today’s physical thought continues with a spiritual thought for the day at the Next Blog

We should always have a compelling goal in front of us. One that makes our efforts to do things, when we’d rather not, strong enough to exercise anyway.
There are obviously going to be unforeseen set backs. These are often stimulating enough to motivate us to keep going.
Too many curveballs though and it gets old.
And this strengthens all our good excuses to stop.
There is something about making progress and having fun with chasing a goal that is inspiring.
Hoping for that to reappear.
Soon.

We may not think we are dedicating our lives to avoiding exercise, but that’s exactly the end result for many.
Yee haw! Two purposeful days of active rest. No travel. Orlando-stay-at-home lucky.
Expecting a decent run this morning.
Hoping something similar for you.
Always.
A lifetime of it.

When it seems there hasn’t been any progress for a long time and maybe there never will be any progress again – what do we do next?
Well, when we work diligently and with great patience and effort we eventually do make progress.
How can we not?
It (almost always) never happens in the time frame we wish for.
Haven’t seen this morning’s weight on the scale in over two years.
Never thought it would take this long to get back.
The long way is the short cut.
