I love dramatic success stories. I have a success story...letting it brew as it becomes more dramatic :)
Marks Daily apple has a nice collection. Our triumph to sculpt the type of physical body we want is such an amazing thing. I become aware of things as I express my self. For example I'm becoming aware of something very important.
Human physical triumph is post mental triumph. The journey began within.
Getting a lean healthy strong flexible body is one heck a journey.
There are many steps and stages in a journey. Here is a step I'm thinking about...that perhaps is not a step but a belief system that one carries with them along the journey.
I think of what I want to be.
I realize, to be different, I have to think, then do, different things.
I understand what I want to be.
I work to express that.
I work to enjoy each step because victory is now, not later.
I realize I'm responsible for my thoughts, feelings, and physical output.
repeat.

morn
I have not posted in awhile, glad to be back.
I enjoy capturing my ideas, so I'll keep the spirit of this blog coming from that place. I think I'll enjoy it more then, meaning it will primarily be about me and my enjoyment. This must mean that I can write no wrong, and comparisons are not rational.
I did (i think I just let details slip often...hmm) 10 ashtanga sun salutations this morning...first thing..before I left my room. my thoughts on that.
This was the first time ive done that..body really stiff. When I did yoga this morning I became aware of how asleep, tight, wrapped up, slow every system in my body was. I am naturally very unflexible but became painfully aware of how much more unflexible I am first thing. Every joint was way tighter...my lungs would burn from deep breath (reminded me of being a smoker).
Here is what is cool. I experienced tremendous benefit...or profit :) from these 10 moves. It took prolly 15 minutes...but I felt very awake after and warmed up and ready. I can infer a lot of wisdom from this...why it would be good to start the day like this ETC ETC. I'm going to do this again. Tomorrow in fact.
