David Uth
Pastor David Uth (looks lean, eh?) last night at the 2016 Singing Trees performance.

Lean In is a best selling book from Cheryl Sandberg.

Lean (just lean, no in) is also a remarkable concept for wellness.

Observe nature.

Stunningly lean.

Survival depends on it, except for the hippo, elephant, and whale.

Lost three pounds in the four day trip to Fort Collins.

Didn’t try to.

Diggin’ 154 though.

The payoff for not quitting is progress.

On becoming lean

Buddism quote
We can control what & how much we eat. Heck yes it’s challenging & feels impossible sometimes. This is not an excuse.

 

We can argue, debate, doubt, or hate. But we cannot deny that hard work over time has a proportionally greater likelihood for a breakthrough.

Not working hard enough or long enough has a proportionally greater likelihood of never yielding a breakthrough.

The odds are stacked for or against the path we choose.

We have an ideal weight range. For example, let’s say 151-153 pounds.

This is a lean weight.

A lean weight that when reached and maintained is like hitting the lottery.

Came in at 157.5 this morning.

Make no small plans.
