I'm not one for making or even considering making resolutions for the new year. They just don't work for the masses. (Oh wait, I'm not part of the masses.) But after some self-reflection motivated by my new book in the making, I've decided that there are several weak areas in my fitness on which I really need to work. I'm not talking about weak body parts mind you, although I DO have those. I'm talking about weak areas in my habits and patterns - which are influenced by how I think and what I value. While I believe that thinking and values are causative, I do think that changes in habits and patterns and thinking and values can happen concurrently. Sometimes, you've got to JUST DO IT! and so here it is - my short list:
- At least one day a week, train in the morning for at least 20 minutes.
- At least one non-weekend day a week, be in bed before midnight and get 7 hours of sleep.
- Write - for my book and blog, a minimum of 15 minutes daily.
There. That's it - for now. I struggle with consistency. For me, doing the same thing every day is a challenge.
TAKE AWAY: One crucial question remains - How much do I truly value the discipline of consistency to achieve greatness in my life?
Thanks ! I think I'll use up the MiO I have since it helps with getting off the soda. Then try some of suggestions in the Freshen Up article. I love mint, but never thought about putting it in my water.
