I gave in.
I gave in to the hum-drum and the lackadaisical nature of those around me.
We have not lived as a Maximized Living family for quite some time. I've gained all the weight back, and even more. I feel like a failure. I'm not happy with myself.
I'm ashamed.
So, instead of giving in more, and giving up totally, I'm going back to the basics.
What is it Inigo Montoya says in The Princess Bride? "Go back to the beginning!"
I need a proper mindset. Even if the family is not on board, and wants to wallow in its own misery, I will trudge forward with what I know to be right.
I need proper chiropractic care. We have continued with adjustments over these years, but with no Maximized Living doctor nearby, we settled for less than the best. We thought we found someone special, but the doctor has dwindled in effectiveness and focus. So, I will seek out someone closer to the Maximized Living intensity.
I need proper nutrition. Yes, the sweet tooth is difficult for me to tame, and it's even more so when there is a baker in the house who uses regular sugar and flour most of the time. It's time to take charge of my own eating habits, whether or not anyone else in the house wants to join me.
I need proper oxygen and exercise. I have tried to keep up an exercise routine, but with different issues (or excuses), I am not as intense nor as focused as I once was. It's time to change that and revisit what worked.
I need proper avoidance of toxins. That is one thing that I have been really good at doing, but I'm sure there are some things that can improve, and so I must re-evaluate.
Is it time for you to "go back to the beginning," too?
Come on! Join me!
"In the beginning..."
