Focus, Fitness and Feelings

It’s Fri-YAY! You are running towards the weekend with anticipation and joy! 😃 

Do you love running? Do you love walking? Both? Neither?  👍 👎 

Walking is “my first love” so to speak. When I started running more than 20 years ago, I “fell in love” with the exhilaration of it all; the starting line, the challenges along the road or trail, the “runners high”, the getting close to the finish line, (not the “hitting the wall” part though 😳 ) and the “good” tired and feeling of accomplishment after the runs. The food and camaraderie after was an absolute highlight. Sharing stories, experiences and food with friends is the best!! 🤩 

After completing my 2nd half-marathon, I had to give up running for a long time, to recover from a serious injury 🤕 . No words to describe the disappointment; was majorly bummed. It was a slow, long recovery. 🐢 

I did the hard work; followed the arduous road to recovery with determination and diligence, even though there was frustration and pain at times. 😣 

You gotta do what you gotta do. It’s your road, and yours alone! Others may walk/run it with you, but no one can walk/run it for you. The body achieves what the mind believes! Running reminds you that even in your weakest moments, you are strong. 💪 

When you’re running a business, challenges like these are part of the journey; the race. How many times have you felt like not moving forward, stepping out of the lane and sitting this out? 5X, 100X, 1000X? 😖 

It doesn't matter how slowly you go, so long as you do not stop! Focus on growth, step by step, mile by mile, rather than perfection! No such thing. 

What are you focusing on today? What goals are you walking or running towards?
