It hasn’t been seven years, but it’s not far off

Literally every Sunday we commit 12pm – 6pm for the YuGiOh tournaments.

Coliseum of Comics recently moved to a new, bigger, and nicer location.

 

If you’re into body building, great. It’s important to remember that most people at the gym aren’t there to “bulk up”. They are there to get and stay healthy.

What would happen if we went to the gym consistency for five or six years?

Similarly, i’ve watched a 10-year old, who got his butt kicked every Sunday for a few years, finally start to win now and then. He has become remarkably better in the five-plus years we’ve been going to Coliseum of Comics.

Take your time but hurry up

Books on a shelf
1001 “Must Read” Books. Seriously. What changes?

 

Postponing getting active?

For when?

The unlimited, never-ending patience we have for postponing our healthy, vibrant living is so deadly.

Think of it this way with our day to day habits…

Our daily impatience is manifested in our pace. We hurry when we drive. We hurry at work. And hurrying is a sign of worrying. Worrying is a sign we are afraid of something.

Fear.

What are we afraid of?

Becoming so vibrant that all our poor health habits, our sources of pleasure and relief, will have to be abandoned, for good?

It’s never too late to change.

The time will pass anyway

Go.

People are depending on you.

Depend on yourself.

Be an example, not a warning, as you age.

Delta mobile app
Today’s post “should have been” from Lyon, France.

 

Began the comeback for the 2019 Masters Track & Field World Championships two days ago.

Thank you Delta and Allianz travel insurance for refunding my airfare.

Can you recall the last time you were bitter about your circumstances?

What if you couldn’t?

Pushing through leads to the other side

Masters athlete packed suitcase
My suitcase packed for the 2009 trip to Finland.

 

Pushing through leads to the other side.

Booked the Lyon, France Hotel yesterday (this is a big deal milestone).

It took a decade of progress to compete in the 2009 Masters Track and Field World Championships.

It’s taken six more years (16 total), to get another shot at it.

This time with healthy feet.

Who dat?

Disney's Animal Kingdom rides
Yesterday, Valentine’s Day, spent at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Park.

 

Does this sound like you or like someone (more special than you) else?

Impatient because exercise and diet doesn’t pay off fast enough.

Yet absolutely patient enough to become progressively less active.

Patient enough to become less healthy.

Even convincingly patient enough to become less vibrant.

What the heck.

You have the rest of your life.

Go.

Do something great.

You absolutely deserve better than you are currently allowing in your life.
