Well, it's still Monday, isn't it?

It may be 10pm, but it's still Monday.

I had hoped to get up this morning and get something done, but for some reason I just didn't sleep last night. But, even though I didn't leave work till after 6:30, I got home and did one set of my core workout. So, it's a start.

Just to get it out of the way, here are my exercise goals for this week (through Sunday).

At least 2 days of "pounding the pavement"
At least 2 days of core/weights

Now, some will say that those goals will never get me anywhere. But, I disagree, they get me further than I am today. And they give me solid attainable goals for this week I believe I can reach. And, reachable goals are what I need right now. I need to get some "wins" under my belt before I up the ante. Also, keep in mind that these are goals, not limits.

In the days to come, I'll talk more about the specific bigger and long term goals.

I wish I could make lots or real promises. But based on my inability to deliver on my previous promises, I'll refrain. Right now, I don't have a lot of confidence in myself to do what I say I will do. This is one reason why I need the "easy wins"...and quick wins.

And before I sign off for tonight.... Thank you to those that have commented on the blog, through Facebook, Twitter and in person.

Till Next Time...Keep Moving Forward!!!

The Sleeping Giant Stirs?!

Could it be? Is the long sleeping (and professed dead) giant waking up and coming back to life?

There's so much I wish I could say has already happened, but I can't (it hasn't happened yet). All I know is enough is enough and now is the time to pick myself up, dust myself off and get going again (all with a little help, of course).

Right now, my first question is who is willing to come (back) on board and see me through this? I so much miss the encouragement you guys have provided in the past. I now realize just how critical that encouragement is and how important it is to acknowledge and appreciate it. But, what I think I need most is true encouragement and accountability from those closest to me. If you just said "Does he mean me?", the answer is YES!!

I PROMISE I will post soon (Monday at the latest)!!!!

Till Next Time....Get Moving Forward!!!!!
