Feeling. Commitment. Conviction.

I've noticed lately that feelings and sentiments are so momentary, so easily persuaded by circumstance.

Commitment is the bridge that keeps us on the path between the good feelings and the bad.

Conviction defines what we personally can stay committed to.

Yes, that is true. Keeping the goal planted firmly in front of you, is a good way around the wobbles, I have found.xx :D

Friday Shootouts - Power (Zest for Life)

I'm struggling with body image/feeling at the moment. I just don't feel fit. So, besides being committed to working out again, I'm also replacing my chair at work with an exercise ball. I got it yesterday and in general I think it's much more comfortable than sitting on a chair. I don't really feel like I'm working my core or anything sitting on it...but I do I have it here if I all of a sudden get motivated to start doing crunches. We'll see about that.

Friday Shootout - Outdoor Food

Outdoor Happy Hour at one of Cleveland's treasures - The Great Lakes Brewing Company. We made it up there for Christmas in July to sample the Year's First public Christmas Ale on tap. It's dark, delicious and in this season 8% alcohol by content - or so that's what we were told anyways. Needless to say by the middle of my third I was feeling pretty "good". Enjoy a night of eating outdoors with me in Cleveland.
