Live on Purpose Fit Tip 07/22/11

I am one who absolutely loves to work out.  So my respect for people who hate it, and still do it, is immense.  I am truly grateful that my mom and dad always modeled an active lifestyle. Watching them greatly influenced  the normalcy of activity.  So, do your kids a favor and show them an active lifestyle.  It's never too late.

Even for someone who loves to workout, I still battle the mind games. This mental melee of excuses whips up a frenzied "to do" list, convincing us we that we just don't have time. One thing I know, you must Purpose to workout. I get my workout clothes ready the night before.  I dress in my workout clothes before I leave my office.  Why? So even if I go home, I am less the tempted to sit on the couch, flip on the tv, and wake up in the morning flanked by popcorn remnants, and an empty bag of lays potato chips.  Live your life on PURPOSE!

DON'T SPIT ME OUT- Fit Tip 07/15/11

I love to crack open an  ice cold diet Pepsi in the morning.  However, there is nothing more gross than taking a giant swig from the can sitting on my vanity from the day before.  Its thick, tepid, and flat. Same thing for you coffee drinkers.  You never hear the server say, " Can I get you a warm cup of coffee."

God said either be hot or cold (He prefers hot). If we're like that soda or coffee we get spewed.

So goes our commitment to health. An all or nothing hyper-emotional promise to work out everyday and eat right.  Which quickly turns into a wishy-washy excuse-filled self-esteem- shattering failure, by the end of the week.  Sound familiar? Spew.

Life is about obedience. A successful life is a disciplined life.  Don't hope, wish, or plead...decide!  You decide today, to get strong strong spirit, soul, and body.

May God himself, the God who makes everything holy and whole, make you holy and whole, put you together- spirit, soul, and body - and keep you fit for the coming of our Master, Jesus Christ.     1 Thessalonians 5:23 (msg)
