New Day New Challenges ....

Morning folks, hope everybody is up and at 'em .... Well got through the warm-up of the 2nd Insanity DVD, and then had to do something else, but make sure I ate only 1 starch/bread and did some extra walking around.  This afternoon will be the cardio recovery, so definitely will get that done this afternoon.  I've been feeling better in the past few days, there is something about working out that gives me a mental edge, knowing that while others say they want the results, I am actually putting something to action.

I was in a meeting yesterday and someone spoke about speaking truth to power, a term credited to the works of the late Manning Marable . Well, sometimes, you have to speak truth (you need to be more healthy, lose weight, etc...) to POWER (Your actions of actually making the right nutrition decisions and exercising).  I challenge you to speak truth to your power, and as Outkast said "you need to git up get out and get something "


So as I mentioned before I'm also getting married next year .......  And everyday it gets realer.  There are so many things that go into it - location, reception, favors, save the dates, announcements, registering, invitations, tuxedos, limos ... and the list goes on and on.  Everyday it seems like something else! But I have been more concerned about is what happens after that day, like every other day after ... Am I doing everything I can do to prepare for this life journey to be the best husband and , eventually father .

Today's Steve Harvey style quote:

Ladies, be careful when you deal with a man who doesn't have steady work.  I'm not talking about the hard working brotha who simply is a little down at the moment, and just doing what he can to survive before he finds another steady job. I'm talking about the brotha who hasn't or ho has no intention of finding a steady career. Don't expect him to be able to give you full-time attention, affection. Odds are - if he does odds-n-ends then that's what you'll get ... Just something to think about.  Let me know if you agree or disagree...

I'm out!
