Are we obligated to be aging wellness advocates?

Baby Boomer wellness speakers
The Magic of wellness grows from intentional efforts.

 

It’s challenging to comprehend how in exercising fewer days, more exercise is actually accomplished. Since retiring four months ago, have unintentionally fallen into a three days a week routine. This nets fourĀ “rest days” every week.

As aging wellness advocates, we need to rethink everything we think is correct and experiment with and seek breakthroughs.

Better wellness equals better attitude.

Doing things faster and better is not the solution

Be first in your category or be the category. Boldness does have genius.

What does this mean for wellness? It means you’re in charge. It’s your responsibility to find creative solutions to impossible obstacles.

No guts, no glory.

It may mean taking a demotion at work. It may mean eliminating certain pleasurable habits that (only temporarily) relieve stress. It certainly means that change is the only solution.

What happens when you convince creativity that you care?

Orlando Based Disney Speakers
Recent trip to magic Kingdom’s Emporium.

 

Focus and discipline will reward you when you least expect it.

Creativity knows you care, and rewards you, when you embrace it like a trusted friend.

Yesterday’s run was cut short because of time. A five mile run became meaningful and motivating when it was approached differently than in the past.

What if i could run it in less than 40 minutes? This would require a level of focus and effort rarely accomplished outside of an organized race. Bottomline it was motivating enough to accomplish something cool… 38:36.

After the first warmup mile, the last four miles averaged 7:24. Never saw that coming.

Your art may never overcome it’s fear

Your art may never overcome it’s fear.

Needed a destination for a bike ride because riding in a circle wasn’t motivating. Aha. Ride to the coolest middle school classroom you know of to be there during lunch – the student’s free time. Then ride home.

It was a nice way to “cross-train” on a spectacular January day near Walt Disney World.

It was also a nice opportunity to remind the teacher what a remarkable artist she is, and how her art inspires not only the students, but also all who come in contact.

Life is hard

Didn’t exercise yesterday. Life is hard.

And glorious.

Make the most of the hand you’re dealt.

Pretty simple, right?

But simple doesn’t mean easy.

Be an example, not a warning.
