Dear Son, from one gift, physical health, come many.

Please do not take offense if the following does not describe you now.

Yet know it IS achievable if we are willing to burn the ships of old habits, excuses, and fears.

Fun is in the physical freedom.

To taste the weirdly wonderful joy of loose fitting clothing.

To feel unembarrassed poolside or beachside. Or anywhere.

You are already youthful. Every 14 year old is.

But to feel strong, flexible, vibrant.

To feel deep personal integrity in our food choices and portions.

To place sleep on our high priority list.

We are lean when we are active and intentional.

“Help Me”

Delayed run until well past sunrise in order for the air to warm. Nothing less than 50 minutes sounded good.

Saw a “help me” message on a car stopped in the middle of a busy four-lane road near Disney.

Turns out it was two honeymooners looking for Downtown Disney.

It was a nice one-minute break with 10 minutes still to run.

Cousin from Jacksonville arrived last night for a 5k at Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex this morning.

She also has a fondness for Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival which is in full swing right now.

Debating whether to start this morning’s run from the mailbox, or drive to Disney and slip into the sea of runners and be a 5k crasher.

What would you do?

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

Exercise is not just physical. Exercise can be mental. We know this. Here you go then…

Four things a book manuscript submission process can teach a person

Clarity • Simplicity • Focus • Execution

The book deal promises 100 days from manuscript submittal, a copy is in your hand.

You get one sentence (20 words max) to describe what your book is about.

Can we summarize our life’s work or our future vision in one sentence?

Have we ever tried? This brings us back to clarity, simplicity, focus, and shipping (doing what you say you are going to do).

All done with generosity and authenticity.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won’t help. – Calvin and Hobbes

Dang if I didn’t torque the left hamstring yesterday. Wasn’t even running.

The rest of you, please remember to be careful, and have fun – in that order.
