Everyday is a race, isn’t it?
Even for the ones who make it look like it isn’t a race.
A tough, busy race.

Everyday is a race, isn’t it?

Too Damn Busy
We hear it all the time don’t we?
“I’m just so busy, I don’t have time to exercise”.
Happens all the time doesn’t it. In fact, we’ve all been guilty of saying something like this. Which begs the next question.
When your health falters, then will you have time?
Ever know you know something important about yourself, but you either can’t quite put your finger on it, or, you simply don’t want to admit it?
Yeah, me too. So, with New Year’s Eve one day away, and the opportunity to resolve, finally, to do something great, here goes:
I hate being “unhealthy”.
And I hate it so much that I’m willing to do all the common sense things that healthy people do.
Common sense, but not common practice.
Not any more. Not this year. Ya with me? Is this your year?
Lane 8 Hypocrite
Maybe. Maybe not.
On January 5, 2009 my Family Physician wrote a script for a routine colonoscopy, since this is the year I turned 50.
Well, here we are, almost January, 2010 – a year later. No colonoscopy. Not even scheduled yet.
How in the hell can that happen?
Simple. You already know, don’t you? We get busy. Distracted. Paralyzed – with the fear of making a commitment.
So, please know I ain’t perfect. Big dreamer? Absolutely. Perfect? No way.
But if you look at the batting average, it represents a decent overall “practice what you preach” reality.
How’s your batting average?
Imagine John Lennon
Can you imagine John Lennon as an athlete? I can, but it doesn’t seem he ever was. His travel schedule was hectic to be sure, at least for much of his life with the Beatles.
So maybe he had an excuse – world travel.
Can I use it too? Oh, and let’s see, may I also use some of these?:
- Too busy with work
- Too busy with school
- Too busy with the kid(s)
- Soon as the weather gets nice
- Starting January 1
- I can’t find an exercise I like
- It’s too dark
- It’s too cold
- I can never see results (fast enough)
- It’s too hard
Not exercising didn’t kill John Lennon, but it certainly may contribute to my death.
Do you ever think about stuff like this?
PS. Tomorrow, we revisit yesterday’s blog post and reveal the number one most contagious thing in the world.
