At the Starting Line

I've made a career out of implementing change in medical practices to help them become more efficient, profitable, compliant and overall just healthier in the way they operate. I'm pretty good at my job and more importantly I really enjoy what I do every day...

just as long as I'm changing YOU and not ME.

8 weeks ago I decided that I was going to dedicate 10 weeks to a serious lifestyle transformation... commitment to a consistent exercise routine, totally healthy eating, and good nights of sleep. And how did that go? I'm fairly sure that plan lasted all of about 4 days... ok, maybe 3 1/2. I don't exercise regularly and I eat absolutely anything I want, when I want. Yes, I know I'm not obese... but being healthy is more than fitting in my "skinny jeans" (although who doesn't love fitting in those skinny jeans?!).

So tonight it hit me- I am living in a failed implementation! Something of that magnitude would be totally unforgivable in my professional life but I have grown complacent to it in my personal life! I allow 12-hour work days and other silliness to take away from the time I should be investing in myself. This craziness has to stop!!! Somehow I have to find a way to prioritize my personal goals and find some balance...

I'm going to be blogging my Re-Implementation in this blog for the next 10 weeks... successes and failures. Not really because I think anyone cares or because I think anyone will read this but because I know I'm more likely to stick to something if I think someone's looking. :)
