The race through life often has no explainable finish line

These are the shelves for all the things we truly know about ourselves

 

Yesterday the 50-year old said he is going back to school.

Asked him why? And asked him how much time he spends in introspective thought. He said seconds, meaning almost zero.

We race through life.

If we don’t have time to think, we can guarantee we don’t have time to exercise.

One of the beauties of exercise is it also provides glorious thinking time.

We know this.

Live as if our couch, our entertainment center, and our snack supply are key?

What’s holding us back from doing this one simple thing (twice) every morning?

This is a fear even greater than the fear of death

 

What’s holding us back from doing this one simple thing (twice) every morning? I weigh myself twice every morning. The second time is to confirm the first number. If they match, I’m done. If they do not, I weigh a third time.

Why? Because it teaches us (me) what each pound feels like. Over time the practice, repetition, and the focus teaches nuance and self-awareness.

I can feel a two-pound difference in either direction. Insane? No.

If you have ever experienced this level of daily awareness, you know it’s absolutely not insane.
