First impressions are not always what we expect

The Car Dealership General Manager said he felt guilty by the obviously fit middle aged men (47 & 55) in his office.

No guilt was intended.

To be honest, it was a huge compliment.

Unsolicited.

Yet proof that personal vibrancy is uncontainable.

If what you do for work requires setting an example, vibrancy is like honesty.

Exceptionally rare and valuable.

Uncontainable.

Be the artist you know you deserve

Could feel it before stepping on the scale. Two extra pounds gained in one day.

Seems insignificant. There is an art to optimizing the temple housing everything keeping us alive.

The art is in the daily tending.

Can you feel that difference as soon as you wake up?

What if you could?

Be the artist you know you deserve.

On becoming lean

Buddism quote
We can control what & how much we eat. Heck yes it’s challenging & feels impossible sometimes. This is not an excuse.

 

We can argue, debate, doubt, or hate. But we cannot deny that hard work over time has a proportionally greater likelihood for a breakthrough.

Not working hard enough or long enough has a proportionally greater likelihood of never yielding a breakthrough.

The odds are stacked for or against the path we choose.

We have an ideal weight range. For example, let’s say 151-153 pounds.

This is a lean weight.

A lean weight that when reached and maintained is like hitting the lottery.

Came in at 157.5 this morning.

Make no small plans.

The really cool thing about our struggles is that it levels the playing field.

We all have them. Tons of them.

Becoming fanatical about balance seems the only way to thrive.

Well, settling for a life of ‘survival’ is another commonly chosen option.

This is the decision the physician presented in 1999… diet and exercise.
