YSO INTERESTING THE THEMES, PULPIT MESSAGES AND GENERAL CONVERSATIONS I’VE RECEIVED OR HAD LATELY IN LIFE, BUT THIS PAST WEEK HAS REALLY BROUGHT ATTENTION TO HOW MUCH DRAMA CAN DRIVE OR DRIVE AWAY “DESTINY”.  I WAS THINKING GENERALLY “IN LIFE” BUT AT THIS SECOND, I MY ATTENTION IS DRAWN TO HOW MY FITNESS GOALS WERE SET IN DECEMBER, TO HIT IT HARD STARTING JANUARY 2012.  BEGAN FREEING MYSELF UP TO REALLY FOCUS,  DOING THE APPROPRIATE PREPPING ETC.  YET AND STILL LIFE’S DRAMA INTERUPTED MY PROGRESS BEFORE GETTING A GOOD STRIDE.  THE GOAL WAS A 5 MONTH GOAL.  TO BE OBTAINED WITHOUT UNDUE DRAMA.  JUST CONSISTENT AND FOCUSED & DISCPLINED WORK.  AND I ALLOWED LIFE DRAMA TO ALMOST TOTALLY TAKE MY SIGHTS OFF OF THE OBTAINABLE GOAL….ONE THAT I WANT AND IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME.  AND AS I APPROACH THE END DATE OF THIS 5 MONTH GOAL WILL LITTLE WORK DONE, I DECIDED THIS MORNING, “YOU ARE GOING TO START TODAY, WITH A ONE MONTH GOAL.  NOTHING WAY OUT THERE, BUT YOU GOING TO LOSE 10 LBS – ELIMINATE THE GUT AND ON THAT END DATE, REASSESS AND SEE WHERE YOU WANT TO TAKE YOUR TEMPLE”  I’M HYPED,WITH PLANS TO MAKE SECOND TRIP TO GYM DURNING LUNCH BREAK.   GET TO WORKPLACE , SET MY LUNCH AND COFFEE ON THE DESK……A TUPPERWARE FULL OF JASMINE RICE (LOVE J RICE) AND FRIED CAJUN DOLE FISH.  I HAD TO LAUGH AT MY OWN SABBOTAGE.  ALL GOOD THOUGH.  DID SOME CALCULATING TO SEE HOW MUCH I NEEDED TO LOSE PER WEEK TO REACH MY GOAL BY MAY 8TH OR 9TH…HOW MANY CALORIES TO BURN ECT.  CHECK EMAILS MO’ URGENT WORK TO BE DONE AND A REPORT THAT WAS DUE YESTERDAY.  SO HERE I GO AGAIN, SAYING TO SELF “I’LL WORK THROUGH LUNCH TO GET SOME OF THIS DONE”…..UMMMMMERAH, YOU WERE GOING TO THE GYM FOR MORE CARDIO AND ABS FOR LUNCH DUDE.  LOL  THEN THE WAKE UP CALL CAME.  A COWORKER CALLED, I’ MISSED THE CALL.  AS BUSY AS I WAS I DECIDED TO CALL BACK THINKING THEY PROBABLY HAD SOME STUPID JOKE TO TELL ME.  THE DUDE TELLS ME THAT ANOTHER CO-WORKER, MUCH YOUNGER THAN I, NICE GUY AND FOR THE MOST PART APPEARED FAIRLY HEALTHY DROPPED DEAD YESTERDAY.  JUST SAW DUDE FRIDAY.   FOUND OUT HE HAD HEART ATTACK.  HE WAS RECENTLY GETTING HIS HEART CHECKED AND DECIDING TO MAKE SOME BETTER HEALTH DECISIONS.
ALLOWING DRAMA TO CONSUME MY LIFE IS NOT AN OPTION.  DEALING WITH MY HEALTH AND WELL BEING WILL ASSIST ME IN DEALING WITH THE DRAMA AND PUSH ME CLOSER TO DESTINY AND MY GOALS.  
WHAT A WAKE UP CALL FOR ME.
SORRY FOR THE SCATTERED THOUGHTS.  U GET THE GIST.  GOT TO GET ON IT AND STOP ALLOWING THE DRAMA IN LIFE TO HALT THE PROGRESSION TOWARDS DESTINY  & GREATNESS!  
Peace and hairgrea
