I have thought this through and I am ready to start being accountable for me. I don’t have any more excuses. I want this blog to help me record my journey though triumphs and struggles. I can visualize the end game, know what I need to do and now I just need to execute.
It is interesting that today is the 49th Superbowl and just like me they have prepared for the beginning of the game. It doesn't matter what happened before or even necessarily what got them to this point. What matters is that they are present, excited and prepared to give it all of their energy. They are superb athletes who have trained for today. Win or lose I doubt any player will not give it their 100% effort. Have no regrets and leave it all on the field.
I am not an athlete, in fact my athletic ability is just a bit above nil, however, what I do share with these athletes is the determination to succeed. When I decided to start seriously changing my lifestyle I began to make a plan in my mind. I needed some good tools, positive thoughts and a great support system. The tools comes from QSciences, my husband is my greatest support and my mind is ready to make the change.
Tomorrow I start measuring my Wellness Plan it is based on 5 key pillars I believe are so important that if I successfully execute my plan my health and wellness will triumph.
- Exercise - commit to daily exercise
- Vitamins - feed your brain and body
- Nutrition - measure what you eat
- Lifestyle - sleep, limit stress and continually challenging your brain
- The Good Stuff - what makes you feel good, reward yourself
Each of these will change as I move though my lifestyle journey. Exercise will get more challenging as my endurance and strength increase. I am always looking for new learning opportunities and ways to challenge my brain and of course the good stuff is what nourishes the soul.
I am ready to start and looking forward to my journey. I know there will be set backs, I expect them. I have plan to forgive myself and keep on going. Just like the Superbowl I have my game plan ready. Everything is lined up and I just need to kick off.
Here I go on my journey to Wellness. I'm not sure of my destination yet but for now my goal is to execute for 7 days and then change the game plan if necessary. I'm excited, prepared and I am ready! Let the game begin!
