Today was an amazing day in alot of respects and a deeply reflective one in others. While at the gym I got an idea for this week's podcast and it should be a fun one.
My workout was a heavy one and I enjoyed every minute of it. I burned off alot of the tension from yesterday and that felt awesome.
Nutrition was great tody. I was in the zone and it felt wonderful.
I began to think about decisions and what they do to our future. Obviously every decision we make shapes our future in some way. I am starting to believe there is no such thing as an unimportant decision when it comes to fitness. I tried once to start this blog and failed, but that wasn't an unimportant decision. It is the decision that ultimately lead me to this blog and what I'm doing now. It has the potential to change my life. In fact, my life will never be the same now that I've started this method of accountability.
I am pleased to say that I have 17 days left in my first mission and I'm going to make each and every day count. I am counting on all of you to push me hard during the next 17 days. I raised the bar a while back and I am going to hit the mark!
