When 2010 began, I joked and told everyone that I wanted 2010 to be the year of no change. Well, my family wind up moving to another state and I changed careers. That serves me right for making such a claim when change is the only constant in life. I read in a magazine that rather than fearing the inevitable, we should embrace it and see how we can make the best of it. So, that is my mantra now - embrace what I cannot change and strive to seek happiness in the midst of it.
I am focusing on building on past success. I went from being a spectator of sports to being active in many ways (getting a new bike, taking on spinning classes, gardening) and want to continue towards healthier living. My kids are there to cheer me on when I don't feel like doing anything after work. They grill me with, "did you exercise today?, did you eat healthy today?, etc." Makes me think do I sound like such a broken record to them?
Having ran my first race in 2010, my goal for 2011 is to run three. I might even throw in a bike/run race as well. Put a stake in the ground and list your goals.
Wishing you a happy and joyous 2011.
