Over the last couple of weeks I have been sharing about the various transitions going on in my life. Today I want to share a little about my personal transitions.
1. The largest transition was the birth of our new baby boy! Our son was born this past Friday, and it has already transitioned several things in our home. More will come I am sure, as our family continues to transition to having a baby in the house, and a boy at that!
2. The other major transition in my personal life is the GYM!
I know what many of you maybe thinking: “The last thing I want to hear about is another loosing weight or working out”. In reality that is not what I want to talk about. My goal is to lose weight, and my goals are to be healthier for my 3 children and my beautiful wife! The reason I wanted to share about this transition in my life is because it has begun to transform many of my views about my health, my ability to accomplish my goals, and what I am going to do about it.
You see for years I was frustrated with my health situation, and finally God asked me a life changing question one morning while I was praying about it.
“WHAT ARE YOU DOING ABOUT IT?” — You see that question can be applied to so many areas of our lives. I realized that for years I complained about it, and talked about it with people, yet I was doing nothing about it! So the GYM for me has been about doing something about the areas of my life that I was frustrated with, and taking the outcomes into my own hands.
The last thing I wanted to make a statement about is that heading the GYM has made me feel great! I absolutely love the feeling of getting a hard workout in, then showering and getting ready for my day. My attitude is better, my energy is up, and my outlook is a little lighter. The unfortunate result is I find myself being tired earlier in the evening, however that is probably a good thing too!
