There are times in everyone’s life where we have to make big time, life changing decisions.
Those decisions vary in a myriad of ways just as we are all so utterly different as individuals. But I bet I’m not alone in having to decide on my health and wellness. Making the decision was really the biggest part for me. It wasn’t so much the decision to join the local gym so I could start a workout program and exercise more. No, the decision was embracing and accepting the fact that after decades of doing it one way, I was going to have to change dramatically. Now the health and fitness part is important. And I’m very thankful that I chose a health and fitness center that will meet my needs as I overhaul my health. Still, it’s the internal decision and commitment that was the key for me to change. For the last couple of decades, my health and wellness have not been properly prioritized in my life. And that’s really putting it mildly. So in my late forties, it was simply time to change. The longer I put it off the harder the change and the more dangerous the possibilities with regard to my overall health. I began my commitment to health and wellness with a trip to the doctor who okayed me to start an individualized workout program. Then I visited nearly every gym in town before setting on one that had wellness and fitness as the main focus. I’m comfortable with my choices and I’m now committed to do whatever I need to do to be my best self.
