Gaining miles and shedding weight

On reflection, as July comes to a close it has been an amazing month all round.
On the career front I have formed my own company (my website in the build phase) and I have embarked on probably the most exciting phase of my life so far.

Every now and then I come across individuals who truly are inspirational, these people live by a strong set of values daily and life seems to bend and yield in their favour, and even in difficult times they thrive and prosper because they live a life of integrity, balance and harmony, and have a clear vision of where their future lies.

I made a decision recently to take charge of the direction of my life and to re-asses my values, and I believe as a direct result of my actions, circumstances have put me in the position to be able to lead a life that challenges me and fires me with enthusiasm.
That decision has also brought many benefits, the most significant of which is that I have found a mentor and friend who tuely is one of the most inspirational people I have ever met. When he offered me the opportunity to join him in business, it was probably the best decision I have ever made.

On the family front life has regained some of my mis-placed balance, as I am now focused on making the people who are important in my life happier and we've had some great time enjoying the oportunities to relax and fire up the barbie, chill out and share our exciting dreams and goals for the future and quality time with friends and family.

The inspiration has impacted on my training also, my weight has dropped from 12 stone 2, to 11 stone 8, and the running miles are getting faster and easier. I've picked up a bit of strain as I have pushed hard to excel in all the areas where I felt weak, and I have succeeded in beating the boredom to run 10 miles on the treadmill at the gym at 8min 45 sec mile pace, because I got tired of running in the rain. This re-inforces my value of looking for a positive in every situation, I was determined to put in 10 miles and the weather wasn't going to dampen my spirits or my feet!

I can hardly wait to see what August holds in store for me.
I hope life is good for you also, the great news is... it will get better and better when you take control and regain your balance by focusing on and living by your values.
If you knew you couldn't fail, in your business life, your family life and in chasing your goals and dreams... what would you attempt to achieve?
Make It Happen... that's my challenge to you.
more soon...
