His nose did not grow so maybe he was honest

Our air conditioner stopped working and upstairs was sweltering. Grabbed a tank top heading out the door (also sweltering) to pick up our Son at school.

He asked if we could go to a store near the Mall (same Mall with an Apple Store). We spontaneously ate dinner at the Mall food court and I suggested we pop into the Apple Store.

Totally unplanned, bought a new iPhone case.

The Apple Store employee said to the 54-year old, “I wanna look that good when I’m your age”.

Unsolicited.

Approaching 15 years of focused and disciplined effort.

When you hear the long way is the short cut, it ain’t a theory.

She said she doesn’t have a weight scale in her house

What responsibility do we have to be honest with our friends? With ourselves?

 

She said she doesn’t have a weight scale in her house. A moment before she said someone had made her day by asking if she was losing weight. She said she has been trying for so long (years?), and was thrilled someone had noticed.

She also said when she goes to the doctor she closes her eyes when stepping on the scale.

So you weigh yourself like once or twice a year?

How can we improve what we do not measure?

Health is wealth and is relatively invisible, until it is not

At the dinner table, two CEO’s were checking their resting heart using an iPhone app. One clocked 83, the other 53.

Both CEO’s know exercise not only improves health metrics, but as a side benefit, exercise simply makes you feel better, increases energy, reduces stress, improves sleep patterns, and on and on.

One exercises. One does not.

Did you know that thirty beats per minute difference equals an extra 43, 200 beats per day?

This also equates to 15.8 million extra beats each year.
