A pencil has an eraser on it.  So if you mess up once in a while, you can go back and correct yourself until the eraser runs out.  Isn’t the same true with healthy eating and fitness?  In most cases, if you mess up today you can go back and start anew tomorrow. You just don’t want to use your eraser all up.  – Keith

What I did today doesn’t really matter anymore. It may have been a good day or a bad day. But I must focus on what’s ahead of me. What will I do tomorrow and how will I accomplish my goals for tomorrow, whatever they may be? When I wake up tomorrow I have another opportunity to do what I dreamed of today.

Walmart sells everything… or so I thought!  I went to Walmart and looked for the “Human Heart” isle.  I asked every person with a blue jacket where they were.  No one could answer me.  I realized that they don’t sell them. I was amazed and decided to take better care of the one I had:)

Do you have a goal that can help your heart? Goals that you set for yourself need to be practical and achievable. Break your goals into small, relatively short and measurable events. Make sure you can Win. Small Wins will help you build the momentum you need to take the next step.

Another new month starts tomorrow. What a great opportunity to make a fresh commitment or renew a commitment to your heart and overall health and fitness. I am going to strive for a very, very, very low saturated fat month in addition to my regular physical fitness routine. What will you commit to? Make it achievable:)

“Healthier eating and daily activity / fitness are non-negotiable. Why do we even think they are? It is never to late to improve your life. Excuses and delay benefit no one and in fact hurt everyone. When we make that “small shift” in our thinking we gain life and health. Make that “small shift.”” …..Keith

“You can do it. It will not be easy and sometimes you’ll feel that there’s just no way. I can tell you that there is a way. A better life and better health is calling you. You just need to believe it’s calling you a little more than the bad habits that got us into this situation in the first place.” – Keith
