Time well spent by not exercising.

Massive 3,000 person conference kickoff
Opening session kickoff yesterday with nearly 3,000.

 

Good thing yesterday was an active rest day because the whole day was spent attending day one of a big conference near Walt Disney World.

Spontaneously changed plans and began the day as an uninvited Guest. That quickly changed when i simply asked for permission. It was instantly granted.

And what was initially going to be a half day time investment became a full day.

Time well spent by not exercising.

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.

Intentionally not doing it on the weekends

Disney's Animal Kingdom parking lot

 

(photo:Row 58 in Disney’s Animal Kingdom parking lot… not everyone lives to see 58. And of those who live that long, how many weekends in a row have they avoided exercise?)

Fourth weekend in a row intentionally not exercising. No running. No Gold’s Gym.

Doing nothing has never felt so amazing.

Insight: Our wellness plans ebb and flow. But only if we refuse to quit.

ATT Family Sharing Plan estimates

There’s an intriguing correlation between improving one area in our life and the degree to which the other areas are similarly impacted even though the ripple effect wasn’t our motive.

Sometimes change is forced our way and sometimes we control whether change can happen or not. And generally we are resistant to change, so we fight it when it’s forced, and we’d much rather take comfort in tradition and routine.

The reason both weekend days were active rest is because Mid Life Celebration is ‘closed’ on weekends – a “money” decision rippling into body.
