Are You Prepared?

"Preparation is not suddenly accomplished, it is a process steadily maintained."
-Oswald Chambers

Are you preparing for an upcoming event in your life? Are you training for an important task or taking steps toward improving an area of your life that needs work now?

Stop for a minute & think about where you are with your health, fitness, faith, family, relationships, and overall life balance. Where would you like to be? Are you happy with the way these things are going? If you are, that's great, but you're not done! You can't just check it off your list and consider it "completed." You have to constantly prepare for tomorrow by thinking of these things every single day. Even a task well done or a milestone met is not The End. It is the start of a new beginning.

Achieved your goal weight? AWESOME! Don't forget that it takes work to maintain!

Did you make it through your first 10K race? WAY TO GO! Stay active! Sign up for another!

Has your child has successfully left the nest? WONDERFUL! Continue being a great parent to them, even when they're living on their own.

Are you happily married? This too takes maintenance...how can you be the best spouse you can be?

Are you preparing for tomorrow? Next year? Your 65th birthday? Beyond this life?
