Sly is definitely on top of things! “Easier” sounds good and sometimes it is but most of the time when we accept the easier way, we are accepting the fact that “in order to adopt the ‘easier way’ that we are also accepting the fact that we are capable of doing less and less and yes, less!” As I get older, my actual goal is to do more! Example: when I turned 50 ten years ago I ran 5000 miles (during the calendar year) to celebrate! Also I put out lots of posts saying what my upcoming goals would be. What? Well, my goal is that every ten years I’m going to add 1000 more miles to it! So I turn 60 this year (2024) so I am currently running 6000 miles this calendar year! When I turn 70 I’ll run 7000 miles etc.! People ask me what happens if I don’t make it? I tell them that it is definitely possible but I’m not changing this “escalating goal!” But, if I don’t make it one year then it doesn’t really matter as long as I know that I did my best!

Think to a time when you made a hard “choice,” but it was the right choice! Sometimes these choices are difficult because we sense that by doing the “right thing” that we, or a loved one, will suffer for it. But, when everything was finally done with, did you suffer as much and in the “way” that you predicted? My guess would be that, yes you suffered but also my (educated) guess (been there done that) would be that you ended up “benefiting greatly” from your honesty! For me, I know (after dealing with many of these choices in my life) that if I deal with all instances in life with 100% honesty then that “final tally of suffering vs. setting yourself free” I always come out with much more on the “FREEDOM SIDE!” Thanks, “The” Trainer/Inside Out Fitness #freedom #freedomthinkers #dotherightthing #columbiarivergorge #hoodriverdowntown #hoodriver
