Whenever i start to feel sorry for myself

Whenever i start to feel sorry for myself i think of others who would love to have my “worries and concerns”.

Started doing vertical pull-ups last week.

Three sets of two.

For at least a year, i’ve not done pull-ups and a couple of months ago began doing horizontal pull-ups using ropes.

The long way is the short cut.

Note: It’s safe to assume that eliminating a lifelong exercise (pull-ups) is due to injury and pain.

First rain run

Hallmark valentines Cards
Love yourself. Love the temple that houses everything keeping you alive. Valentine’s Day is tomorrow.

First rain run.

Out the door at 5:15am (20 minutes ago). Cheryl remarked, “This is my first rain run.”

To which i thought, “Cool, and, it’s cold and dark too.”

So many reasons to skip.

But none of them are “because it would improve our health”.

The truth hurts or delivers freedom

Powerful thought about attitude
From a graphic artist’s Instagram feed yesterday. Love the paradox of popular vs unpopular perspective.

To measure if you have enough motivation to get and stay healthy for a lifetime, determine the costs required and then continuously pay them.

If you don’t get and stay healthy for a lifetime, it’s because you didn’t have enough motivation or you tried to negotiate the price.

Of course change is challenging

IPad Pro
Ever smaller, and more powerful and more capable.

Found a list from 2008 while sorting through old files last night. It’s context nuetral, meaning it easily adapts to wellness.

  • Be fully present
  • Be self-responsible and self-challenging
  • Lean into discomfort
  • Take risks, make some mistakes, and then let it go
  • Be open minded

Body weight isn’t about looks

weight scale
Yesterday at Apple Store.

Body weight isn’t about looks.

Body weight is about personal vibrancy.

Imagine aging at a steady weight throughout life.

Imagine personal vibrancy for the other four choices in your life: mind, (Body, here), spirit, work, home.

Improve on, they all benefit.

Neglect one, they all suffer.
