Not sure what happened to yesterdays post... just realized it never went up. Yesterday I met with an old friend and mentor. We walked from the convention center in Asbury Park past Belmar and back just talking (BTW - I was taking names of who I saw at the food festival in Belmar LOL). Nevertheless... this is one of the many pearls he dropped on me yesterday.
"All you can do is take proper action NOW but do not get caught-up in the result... every action / behavior has it's effect, most of those effects are not seen immediately but they WILL create a result. Observe the result objectively and decide on the next proper course of action.... what is critical is to continue the journey while constantly staying present with each choice you make."
Whenever I meet with him I always leave feeling re-charged, he constantly reminds me of what I already know, but with the sense of urgency to do it better... I think some of you have had similar revelations doing the UTC.

T, Sorry about the mixup on tomatos/grape tomatos/cherry tomatos, etc.. apparently you were right. I guess I should've been counting it as a fruit all along instead of a carb in salads.
ReplyDelete"Sorry about the mix-up Tom, apparently you were right..."
ReplyDeleteFrank, if I had a nickel for everytime Jody SHOULD HAVE said those words to me... let's put it this way, I thought I was wrong once, but then I realized I was actually wrong about being wrong.
No worries, Frank. :)

A personal Thanks to Thom and Jody for Kicking My Ass at my first Kettle Bell class I will be back for more next Sunday.
Jessica the only positive thoughts I can share is the corny Time heals all. The girl in high school who broke my heart ruined my world at the time and although I can still recall that point it doesn't have any impact on the now.
ReplyDeleteI watched the BUDS video last night and could not believe that a person could endure both physically and mentally what they were put thru. I heard one of the instructor say a line that was great, "Make an excuse to succeed" .

ReplyDeleteThanks Chet!
ReplyDeleteWent to the gym .. did some jumping rope and a class and felt much better!
A good workout always helps!
:)
Jess, a good workout always helps. It gets those endorphines going & eliminates those cravings. Besides we are human and just might fall off the wagon once in awhile. The trick is to climb right back onto that wagon as soon as possible, which, I might add you did beautifully. Just take a look in the mirror!!
ReplyDeleteRock on!

Thanks Frank and congrats!!! on the 25 +
ReplyDeleteThe pants are a big issue for me...I need to buy some
My body composition changed yesterday.. I am so happy about that... because that shows what I am trying to do is working.
I think we can all agree that we are our worst critics..
Have a great day!!!!
Need to do legs today..
I thought my legs would be more sore from Sunday, but they are not?? Maybe it is just that there is a learning curve maybe I am not doing the kettlebells properly yet.
