I'd been two days.
Push ups: 0
Much work, still, lies ahead young paddiwan. (Spell check? )
Before I feel down, I remind myself of the goal. 100 push ups for THIRTY DAYS (not 30 consecutive days... Muajajaja loop holes.)
Begin and Win
We have so much FREEDOM, what will we do with it? We CAN do so much, WHEN will we DO? - A. Wise Youngman With this blog I want push myself to pursue a life style that produces happiness and hopefully along the way inspire you to do the same and seize the MOMENT. I would like my journey to help US realize/remember the responsibility we have to ourselves. WE must SPRINT towards achieving our goals whether BIG or small because our GROWTH will keep us HAPPY & FULFILLED.

100 push ups for 30 days (WEEKEND EDITION)
Defining Quote
https://www.passiton.com/inspirational-quotes/3034-i-do-not-choose-to-be-a-common-man-it-is-my
When I first came across this, I was listening to Les Brown.
The way he delivered it, the message, the TIMING; brought me to tears.
These words, summarize who I am, and who I want to IMPROVE.
" I do not choose to be a common man. It's my right to be uncommon- if I can. I seek opportunity- not security. I do not wish to be a kept citizen, humbled and dulled by having the state look after me. I want to take the calculated risk; to dream and to build to fail and to succeed. I refuse to barter an incentive for a dole. I preffer the challenges of life to the guaranteed existence, the thrill of fufilment to the stale calm of eutopia. I will not trade freedom for beneficence nor my dignity for a hand out. I will never cowar before any master nor bend to any threat. It is my heritage to stand errect, proud and unafraid; to think and act for myself, enjoy the benefit of my creations and to face the world boldly, and say, this I have done."
- Dean Alfange

06/27/19- Day Two
Day two of 100 push ups for 30 days.
I completed 130 push ups YAY!!!
(my personal goal was 150 though). I was 20 push ups away from meeting my goal. But I PERMITTED my inner demons to get in my way.
I learned a valuable lesson at the end of the day, after meditation, and a little pick me up from my best friend, Denise, my wife.
I was reminded that ego, is a double edged sword.
I was reminded that I have to keep my eyes on the prize.
I was reminded that one can't let other's viewpoint or comments about you get YOU down.
Finally, I was reminded that I can't change the past, I can't predict the future. What I CAN do, is control how I'm going to RESPOND to the game of life.
Seize the day folks, DON'T LET NOTHING STOP YOU FROM ACHIEVING GREATNESS.

06/26/2019- 100 pushups a day for 30 days.
Ten at a time, through out the day. One brick at a time, and a great wall can be constructed. Big goals broken down into smaller goals plus time and action= results.
I can proudly report :
Goal met :D
29 days to go.. Whoo hoo (he said as his arms nearly fell off. Jk lol)
