Thinking Thirty

It's amazing what impact "intention" has on ones life. I've discovered that being "intentional" in my choices lends them more power in my life. I make decisions that are reasoned and purposeful, rather than random and that feels good. The Think Thirty incentive is one of these intentional decisions. I signed up for the incentive and I have the intention of completing it successfully. I have a plan each day as to how I'm going to achieve my 30 minute goal of activity. I also recognize the days that it's not feasible and am okay with that. Being intentional about exercise has turned "I hope that I can get to the gym" to "I'm going to get to the gym at this time, for this long." It is this intention that helped me be successful in running a marathon 2 years ago and will help me be successful in running another one this fall. There I said it. I'm going to run another marathon this fall. It is my intention.

  1. WooHoo! Keep it up chica! I just recorded my thirty for the day. It was sandwiched between a GREAT core class today (I don't count my teaching :( ).

    Way to think, AND DO, thirty.

    PS I need to borrow some of your quotes for others on this excursion.
