Would it be impossible without the exercise?

With everything that floods our schedule with unexpected worry and challenges to solve – and challenges to let go of – how would we maintain our sanity without regular exercise?

She asked these two questions about his running

She asked these two questions about his running:

Did you always enjoy running or is it an acquired taste?

Watch when young kids are together. They do not walk anywhere. They run. And they smile and laugh while doing it. They cannot hide their joy.

Been running for the past 15 years straight. Ran track for five years in public school. Went 20+ years without running at all.

To answer the question, everything in life requires a balance of pros and cons. Some days running is joyous. Some days there is zero motivation. Before yesterday morning’s run, the longest run of my life, the motivation to run was very low.

You would have never guessed, right?

Guess again.

His advice? Don’t let someone else’s success and longevity become your excuse(s) because you think there’s something magical that you’re missing or cannot acquire.

The magic is finding a million ways to slay the bull crap lies we tell ourselves.

Good luck today.

You’re in charge.

Live like you mean it.

We write our own scripts

What is possible lies dormant (and possibly dies for good) if the scripts in our head tell us to stop thinking about big, hairy, audacious goals.

Last night was the 11th straight night of eight hours sleep.

The last time this happened was, um…sorry, can’t recall the last time.

Impossible is all in our head

Everything is impossible until the first person does it.

To think we could be more fit at 55 than, well, almost anyone, is sick.

Impossible is, well, all in our head.

  • If not you, who?
  • If not now, when?
  • If now ever, why?

Being an example for what is possible seems legit.

18 days until it starts

Are you self-motivated?

No, seriously.

Do you talk to yourself?

Do you allow the long list of limitations to influence the height of your goals?

 

 

Stop it. Okay? Just stop.

January 1, 2015 is 18 days away (yes, this won’t post until March 23 – decided long ago to not let a unique posting schedule be a limitation.)

Who gives a crap if you’ve struggled your whole life?

Totally get it. Been there… and still…

And everyday after waking it’s back to the salt mines of kicking doubt and fear’s ass butt.
