About Me

I've realized that checking out and taking the "easy" road has darn near killed me. This is me showing up, checking in, and attempting to undo the damage I've done.

Moving Past The Stopping Point

When I saw my blood sugar reading this morning I immediately thought of a conversation I had with a participant in the program I'm coaching.

She wanted to quit because her project was stalled and she wouldn't complete it by the end of the program.

I told her I didn't care about the project that this was where she gets stopped in life and quits. So what that the project isn't going how you want, what now? Take an action, move forward, the only thing that mattered was that she pushed past where she gets stopped. That's what success is.

I'm notoriously bad about taking my own advise however I truly believe what I told her that day.

This is the point where I get stopped in life. My body is in complete breakdown right now and it seems so impossible to overcome.

I finally get that this can be true and I still succeed by not letting it stop me.

So what that my fasting blood sugar reading was 224? What now? I called the doctor's office and asked her to increase my prescription on the test strips so I can test more than once a day.

It really didn't matter what that number says, it's the action I take knowing that information that matters.
