Tomorrow is Today!



I bought a pedometer not long ago on the advice of a friend. My goal is to get back into running shape one step at a time. I've decided to start by walk/jogging 10,000 steps everyday. So far I have not been very successful. Do you know how many steps I walk on average? Only 1,800. . .the entire day. Sitting at my desk and 90 min in traffic everyday is not helping me much. In order for me to meet my goal I have to wake up at 4:30am to walk/jog for 40 min. then walk/jog another 45-60 min when I get home from work. I lost six pounds a few weeks ago when I stuck to my routine but then company visited and work got busy, blah. . .blah. . .blah...same old story. So once a week I'm going to post my steps and pounds lost. Well, my old internal motto is "I'll start tomorrow." and my new motto is "Tomorrow is today!" so I'm headed out to add some mileage to my pedometer. Those school papers will just have to wait till later to be graded and that movie Dan rented for me will just have to go unwatched for now. I'm tired of my yesterdays being full of missed opportunities. Pray for me. . .this is going to be a battle.
