#Awake

#Awake

Come alive and let your healthy choices allow you to soar to new heights – heights you are so capable of.

Beginning today, and for every single day forward, live in an awakened state.

Slay the demons telling you you can’t or you don’t deserve it.

Look Mom, no orthotics

When does defacing someone else’s property become acceptable? Is there some excuse that makes this ok? Photo: Epcot, Japan, men’s restroom.

 

Yesterday was the fourth run without orthotics. The first week was only three miles each run. But yesterday it was seven miles. Nice and easy. Is it possible to let go of a 12+ year crutch?

Chronic foot challenges are an invisible disability.

So is a couple’s infertility.

Life goes on.

Depending on what’s important and how bad you want something, you can find a way to keep moving forward.

Don’t let good excuses become a habit.

You’re disability is invisible

Lane 8 wellness blog
Random stumble upon by a good friend at Universal Studios yesterday.

 

Your (and my) disability is invisible. You (and i) can’t see it.

It’s holding you (me) back.

It will always hold you (me) back.

Until you (i) learn to live with it.

It could be apathy, excuses, addictions, distractions.

Whatever it is, it is a real thing, even if you (i) can’t see it.

Resolve to see it.

Then once you (i) know what it looks like, destroy it.

Lead (yourself) like you mean it.

There is no other option, and even if there was, it’s would be even more invisible. Ridiculous, i know. As ridiculous as not slaying our motivational disability.

What happens when you convince creativity that you care?

Focus and discipline will reward you when you least expect it.

Creativity knows you care, and rewards you, when you embrace it like a trusted friend.

Yesterday’s run was cut short because of time. A five mile run became meaningful and motivating when it was approached differently than in the past.

What if i could run it in less than 40 minutes? This would require a level of focus and effort rarely accomplished outside of an organized race. Bottomline it was motivating enough to accomplish something cool… 38:36.

After the first warmup mile, the last four miles averaged 7:24. Never saw that coming.
