Education is a dance of comfort and discomfort

college walking tour
Walked 10 miles day one, and walked 5 miles yesterday.

 

Education is a dance of comfort and discomfort.

That’s what the assistant admissions director said.

It makes sense.

And it’s a context-neutral insight, meaning it applies to everything and everyone.

For example…

Wellness is a dance between comfort and discomfort.

Think about it.

And more importantly, do something about it.

Go.

Diet and exercise is all about losing weight

Disney Institute Speakers
Found last night using Google for Disney Institute.

 

Diet and exercise is all about losing weight.

Until it’s not.

And trust me, it’s not.

The pressure is on when it’s just your responsibility

Don’t click the photo, it’s not a link to the video (that link is further down)…

science
Randomly stumbled upon this video via a friend’s Facebook update. i believe in Global Warming. i also believe in maintaining an ideal body weight. Both may seem impossible. So why do so many fight for Saving the Planet but not themselves? Because the first requires all of humanity, the second only you. That’s too much responsibility for most.

 

Should we be suspicious of people who worry about global warning, but aren’t doing anything about their personal health? And i’m not talking about Neil, i’m talking about you and your Family, and all the people in your community.

And the notion of not doing anything means that if we don’t see results, then effort isn’t being applied well enough.

Will your annual physical (you do it every year, right?) this year reveal a picture of great health?

Comfort Or Fuel For Our Body?

 

Comfort Or Fuel For Our Body?

At my brutally honest best, i admit that sugar makes me feel good.

Sugar feels like a reward.

i enjoy the way it tastes.

So much so that i crave it.

Using fresh fruits to sustain me in those moments until the craving goes away.

It’s working.

Not much, but much more than that

Highland Trail Hike
My smile belies my fear.

 

Highland Trail Hike
A healthy respect for Grizzlies and Black Bears, but no paralyzing fear of Grizzlies.

 

Highland Trail Hike
The flowers are so small and pretty.

 

Highland Trail Hike
Well, most of them. Reminded that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Overcoming paralyzing fear is beautiful.

 

While the two-hour horseback ride and the 1.25 mile hike on the scary part of Highline Trail was not a strenuous workout physically, it did offer a giant leap in overcoming.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
