Good Week

Been having a great week so far. I have done a lot of walking this week and my foot hasn't been hurting as much and I feel great. Hopefully I will be running again in about two weeks, if not I will have to think of a different way to exercise. I may take up cycling, I do have a bike that is gathering dust, maybe I'll brush it off and take it for a spin.

I'm afraid I'll look like this:

When I really want to look like this:

It's something to work toward. Having a goal is always good. I need to view problems as challenges as I have learned in 23 things.

Week 2, Thing 3

As you can see my blog is set up.

"Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein

Week 1 Thing 2

I watched the 7 1/2 habits tutorial and they are:

Habit 1: Begin with the end in mind

Habit 2: Accept responsibility for your own learning

Habit 3: View problems as challenges

Habit 4: Have confidence in yourself as a competent, effective learner

Habit 5: Create your own learning toolbox

Habit 6: Use technology to your advantage

Habit 7: Teach/mentor others

Habit 7 ½: Play

My favorite one is obviously number 7 1/2...Play
The hardest one for me is probably number 3. I usually see problems as problems, so I will have to learn to be a more optimistic person. When life gives you lemons make lemonade.

Week 1 Thing 1

I read the blog and I found out about the program.




"If your parents never had children, chances are you won't either."
Dick Cavett.

Update and what not

Well it has been a while since my last update. I have not given up on running yet but my feet might have. After about two weeks of running I developed horrible pain in my left foot and would hardly be able to walk in the morning. Turns out I have developed plantar fasciitis in my left foot, so I have had to go back to walking 5 days a week at least for the next few weeks.

I am still losing weight...slowly, 30 pounds for far and my blood pressure is normal (at least something about me is normal).

I will begin to post my 23 Things shortly see please stand by...
