Overcoming Obstacles

Wow! That wasn't hard at all! Yesterday after work, I I hit the treadmill in the fitness center of my apartment complex for forty-five minutes. Then this morning I hit the floor for some ab work--something like 5-10 mins--bicycle crunches, side crunches, leg lifts. Still got to work early on top of that! So, of course, the question is, "Why don't I do this at least 5x's a week, if not everyday? It was certainly easy enough! The answer is just as simple: Excuses! Working, cooking dinner, doing laundry, helping with homework, social networking, writing, watching television, sleeping, etc. One way or another, they're all excuses.

Today in my fitness walk--similar to my spiritual walk, continual--I've been forcing myself to overcome these self-imposed obstacles, a.k.a excuses. In doing this, I find that I am not only less stressed, but experiencing more success. Over the last couple of weeks, my son and my daughter have both commented  that my belly is looking a bit smaller. How cool is that?
