Each day Disney’s goal is the same

Disney wellness speaker
Each day Disney’s goal is the same. Disney wants the entire 40+ square mile property to be spotless.

 

If we thought like Disney – daily world-class excellence – what would change in our daily health habits?

These two parameters add purpose to your life

bike ride at sunrise
Yesterday morning, just after sunrise, biking 20k to Golds Gym. Notice the length of the left corner tree shadow. By this time i’ve been up since 5AM, wrote 5 blog posts, made breakfast for my Family, drove Son to school.

 

Can’t imagine what life would be like without a set bedtime and awakening time every day.

These two parameters add purpose to your life and give you something to focus on that signals the start of an exciting day, and the end of a wonderfully productive and joyful day.

The proverbial starting line and finish line.

To not have something worth waking up early for feels like you’re cheating yourself, your potential.

To not have a promise to yourself to call it a day and reward yourself with adequate rest for the coming day seems juvenile to me.

What makes some adults exercise regularly their entire lifetime

relatives
Babies don’t think about exercise, but while awake, it’s all they do.. Boomers think about it a lot, but rarely do it. Fascinating.

 

What makes some adults exercise regularly their entire lifetime and others avoid it altogether their entire lifetime?

Retired from Disney but still working hard

Christmas cards in mailbox
Tucked a pile of Christmas cards in my bicycle bag, rode to the end of the driveway, loaded them in the mailbox, then rode 25 miles roundtrip to Golds Gym and back.

 

Sometimes i think i’m spending too much time exercising and taking care to eat and sleep well.

And then i imagine life as a retiree.

What would i do with my time?

i’d spend a lot of it exercising, eating well, and investing in eight hours of sleep each night.

While retired from Disney, i’m still working hard to change the world.

Compromise is the only option sometimes

Inching my way back, about 1/4 mile each week.

 

Abdominal incline bench
This is harder than it looks, and i love it.

 

So the indefinite vacation from running lasted about two months, roughly until school let out around June 1. Since then, i became our son’s running partner. All Summer long we ran with the Windermere Runner’s Club two mornings a week at the high school. The other three days, we ran from home: not much running to speak of, and this is why i got back into running – it was easy running and our son needed the support, guidance, and encouragement.
