No joking!
No matter how much we plan, something always happens. It’s like someone is playing a joke on us. I once heard trying to have control described as trying to hold something tight in your hand. The harder you try to hold on, the more gets squeezed out. The best you can do is to set your priorities.
Dead Reckoning
I love this term. It is the process of calculating your position in order to keep on course. When you set your #1 priority, you control the outcome of your day. That’s because you have determined in advance the most important and rewarding thing you will accomplish before the day is done. Then you get it done.
Today I decided to make exercise my priority. I gave myself a list of 3 exercises that I could do during my day (stretching, walking the dog & the vibration plate). I may only spend 10-15 minutes doing them but they add up. I stretched first thing this morning and it felt great. I just returned from walking Monk. Tomorrow I am going to add a workout program. What one thing will you do today to advance your most important goal?
It helps to have a priority as a dead reckoning. What healthy choice will you make today? Let me know.
