The Best Reason of All

By Don on August 15, 2017 0

Whatever you want to do, do it now. There are only so many tomorrows.

(Quote attributed to Michael Landon)

I first became interested in working out and staying healthy because I wanted to make the team in junior high.

Later, my aim was to look good for the ladies.

Once I was married-with-children, I wanted to be a good example to the kids.

Then life took over.

I was too busy to get to the gym. In too much of a hurry to eat right. Too worried to pray and meditate (incredible, but true), and eventually too tired to do much of anything.

The next time I got serious about health was after the doctor told me I should start taking medications for high blood pressure and cholesterol issues.

I looked like the poster guy for a man ready to have a heart attack.

Surely, there’s a better way…

The best reason of all to take care of yourself

Here’s what I discovered. It’s something so obvious that I should have realized it all along: Health provides its own reason.

Don Sturgill - best reason of all - RoadturnIt’s good stuff. I love having energy. I love being able to walk and run and swim and jump. I love the feeling I get after working hard or choosing a salad over a pizza.

And when I make the wrong choice… I suffer.

If you’re staying active and watching what you eat, you KNOW what I mean. If you’re stuck in the misery end of the cycle and can only vaguely recall what it felt like to be healthy, I’ve got good news for you: It doesn’t take that long to start getting turned around.

Get to the gym. Talk to a staff member. Get a buddy for accountability. Belly up to the facts and do what you need to do. You know what that is.

You can do it. You know you can.

Need help?

Let’s talk….
