Quitting is easy...

...I've done it hundreds of times.

So the saying goes.

What is the saying for making a change?

"Change is easy, I've done it hundreds of times."?

I don't know the saying. But I do know the feeling. And, on this Sunday, I have the feeling again.

---It is time for a change---

My current 'change' is to get my body in some sort of decent shape. While the weight is good, and I appear to be "in shape", I can tell that I am not.

Today, I went for a 1-1/2 hour walk. Yes, 'walk' but it was at a good clip. I returned soaked in sweat so I feel I did accomplish something.

And each journey starts with a single step, right? My 'journey', my 'change', is starting with a few thousand steps. The plan is to get at least 30 minutes of 'exercise' in each day this week. It doesn't sound like much: 3+ hours in a 168 hour week. But i haven't been doing it. So it is easy NOT easy or I am just a lazy a$$. (No opinions needed.)

A few months ago, i started a 90 day exercise program. I still have 89 days left.

One can have hope.
