This has nothing to do with sports cards. It has everything to do with my health. Short and simple, I need to get healthy. I need to come to terms with my inability to control my eating habits. Over the past 15 years since I left university, I have been a model citizen on what not to eat. They say a habit takes 3 months to formulate. Well what is it going to take to get there?

I stare at these card board heroes of mine and often think about their work out regiments. Why do I do that? I do it because it makes me feel better. It’s a pile of dung to be honest. I lack the simple skill that these athletes possess. That is the will to win. You can’t win by being lazy.

I need to set a milestone and stick to it. I am now going to put in writing my plan. Every successful person tells you that in order to achieve greatness you have to make a plan, write it down and achieve those goals.

It is no different than creating a want list and searching for your cardboard gold. This time I intend to stick with. If not for myself, I will do it for my son and my wife. I owe them that much and they deserve to see their loving husband and father live a long time.

I am nearing 40. I fully intend to have 40 more years of goodness.

So I raise a toast to myself for doing the one thing I needed to do. Write it down! This post is my subpoena from life.

Here is my hashtags I need to incorporate success in my dream to be healthy again.
