Write your Story - What’s Your Why?

Words may inspire but only action creates change. - Simon Sinek

This week’s post is entirely dedicated to you and your actions, not my words. 

Best piece of advice, help, guidance, and support I can give is to leave this blog post for you to write. 

Not so simple question: What’s Your ‘Why’?

Why do you do the things you do? Why do you get out of bed in the morning? Why do you exercise or believe you should stay fit? Why do you eat vegetables or healthy food over cookies and chips? This is a thought-provoking question and one that will take some deep, inner soul-searching.

Mine is here, in a recent post of mine. 

So what’s yours?
What’s your ‘Why’?

Write it, share it privately, share it publicly, share it out loud, share it with a friend. Simply put it down and go from there. I’d love to hear it and help support your ‘Why’.

We are nothing without it and defining it will define much of your future accomplishments that are yet to be achieved.

So, what’s you why?

Success - Finding my ‘Why’

Success - Finding My ‘Why’  I talked a lot about failure last week, I will likely touch on it more as I go since it is so relevant to success. Let’s talk success for a moment, because I’ve also managed to have lots of that amongst all that failure. The basis for my blog stems largely from what I accomplished in May, the reactions that ensued afterwards and conversations had prior all made me realize I needed to explain myself. I ran a full marathon, 42.2kms, without dying...although there was little chance that would have happened (the dying that is). I sporadically have crazy ideas and this was one of them, so I decide to sign up in March largely to raise funds for charity but also to accomplish this feat that I put on a “List of things to do before I die” when I was around 19 years old. I made this list half of my life ago and still remember many of the crazy things on it while I continue to check them off. See, I had much more time, possibly more drive, energy, and l...

Challenges - We all have them

Amor Fati - Not merely to bear what is necessary...but love it.  Look, I talk a lot about success, often about past failures, about lessons learned, and try to put the positive mind in front of all else. As much as you spin life, try to over-positive it, or self-talk, it doesn’t make bad days, weeks, months, years, or moments disappear nor does it make them any less existent or relevant. We all have stuff. Stuff that tries to hold you back, drive you down, put a mountain in front of where you want to go, or make you want to quit to take the easy route.  I have stuff, I’d say I probably have a couple days a week I question “why go for the run or to yoga”, “why get off the couch”, “How am I going to make this work”. Some days I do it and others I don’t. It doesn’t mean I’m done for, tomorrow is the start of a new day and hopefully a refresh/restart of the mind. It’s tough though, I get it. Everyone has something. There is always something you are fi...

Changes, Challenges, Growth

“If nothing changes then nothing changes.” This saying has popped up a couple times over the past week for me, so I’ve been thinking a lot about it. Changes, challenges, pushing comfort zones, and growth. I’ve written a lot about this stuff and will continue to talk a lot about it. If nothing changes then nothing changes, it’s as simple as that. So I did something drastic this week, as one does to prove a point to himself and to initiate a needed change for some needed change. Excuses have been mounting for me lately, so I needed something different. Here is what I learned doing 50 burpees per day for an entire week. Let me preface this a bit first, I dislike burpees....no that’s not true, I absolutely despise burpees and the individual that came up with it. I don’t do burpees, ever. They’re awful; pain, loss of breath, struggle, more pain....the worst in workouts in my opinion. Every other time I’ve done them I’ve not touched them again for a long time. I did someth...
