BEFORE:
I am in and my wife Megan is too! Yet, I personally am taking a slightly different approach that may absolutely backfire or send us packing for San Diego!
I am utilizing ‘CHOICE’ as my tool for transformation, not a goal with the end in mind. Let me tell you why.
This past year... My father past, I inherited his business 5 states away, I signed on to be part of the largest undertaking in health care through my business, bought a new home, got married, honeymoon in Greece, sold 2 other houses, a business, my wife quit her job to follow her passion for starting up her own company, financial restructuring and Lifebook Ultimate.
Yet, after taking a breather for the last 2 weeks, we have a new chapter in our Lifebook that we have not fulfilled. That is to bring a beautiful child into this world. We know for certain we want to be at our optimal health physically, mentally, chemically and spiritually while doing so.
On October 31 I slept in. I wasn’t living my best life. I wasn't intentional about what I was eating. Derek and I took our kids out trick-or-treating. I dressed up as Albert Einstein and Derek dressed up as my chalkboard with E=MC2 written on it. We had a lot of fun as a family although I was in pain walking throughout the neighborhood. I happened to catch a glimpse of my reflection, Albert Einstein had a serious booty! I knew I was in costume but I hardly recognized the person staring back at me. I had foot injury that lasted over a year and I wasn't able to exercise like I was accustomed too. I wasn't able to walk without pain, it would keep me up at night. I had so much inflammation in my body. I was at the heaviest weight I have ever been weighing 175 pounds. I wasn't running, dancing and playing with my kids like I had in the past. I was drinking a beer every day, sometimes two. I was harboring frustration and disappointment with a situation that happened 2 years prior with our kids school. I was sometimes up in the night going over and over the details trying to understand what happened. On November 1 everything changed. That day Derek and I committed to taking charge of our health and fitness. This Lifebook challenge came at a phenomenal time in our life. We had already made significant changes, but this solidified our commitment.
