What's It All About?

Follow me, or better yet join me as I journey into my sixties... enjoying my grandchildren... trying to stay healthy and fit... maybe some traveling and whatever else tickles my fancy.

Why Don't You Change? What Prevents You?

Why don't you change? What prevents you?
These 2 questions have been haunting me lately... they come from a talk from the great Indian Philosopher J. Krishnamurti... and the same 2 answers come to me every time... First, I don't know exactly what I want and secondly I am too comfortable where I'm at.

Of course I change little things like my weight and body composition... I make changes to my diet... I make changes to my work-out routines... these are little things, so I get little results... I think I need some bigger goals, some major changes. First I really need to think about what I really want out of the rest of my life, because right now I haven't got a clue.

Remember, when it comes to getting what you want... the only real obstacle is you.

Weather wasn't too bad today, so I got to go out for a ride... my longest and fastest ride so far this year. I stayed out for over an hour and rode 15.5 miles. The wind was a slight factor coming North, but I guess it didn't slow me down too much... also had my highest average heart rate at 144 bpm and a max HR of 175 bpm, that must of been when I was racing uphill trying to make it before the light turned red at the intersection.
