Just do it

Disney Keynote Speaker
Goal here: capture wearing two backpacks – one normally, the other backwards (in the front).

Nearly 40 pounds of gear between the two backpacks.

The thought of not bicycling 29 miles roundtrip almost won.

 

two back packs and a bike
Four miles into it, the sweat i swore i would avoid caused me to take a five-minute break.

Yesterday was the first time – in 18 years -i rode a bicycle to a Keynote Speech venue.

If you knew you couldn’t fail…

Swimming pool near Disney
After a long bike ride to the gym (and an hour there) and back, i sat on a float in our pool…because i could.

 

If you knew you couldn’t fail, what would you do for your health?

Look away

Disney Business Books author jeff noel
Write like you mean it either means it’s something you actually do, or it’s a theory for “someday”.

 

You will find your solution to staying active, if you are willing to look where you haven’t yet looked.

Dear Risk

Magic Kingdom Town Square
Decided to work from here yesterday, September 11.

 

Dear Risk,

Sometimes what you think will scare me doesn’t, and other times what you think i’m not paying attention to is actually what scares me the most.

What scares me the most is neglecting my health.

Heck yeah i understand the commitment required to live a life which opposes neglect. And if it wasn’t so risky, i probably would have simply followed the Herd’s (society in general) path.

At least i tried

SunTrust personal banker
The first person i met was surprisingly delightful. i should have known.

 

At least i tried.

Chase Bank, only a mile from our house, missed an opportunity to wow me.

The thought of being able to walk (or ride a bicycle) to our bank is appealing.

But alas, we will need to drive.

i would like to thank Chase for reminding me of a SunTrust Branch (close by) i had completely forgotten about.

Note: On Tuesdays (yesterday) and Thursdays, i do not exercise. These “off/rest” days allow time for administrative tasks, etc.
