Getting back on the horse. I was away from F3 for about 3 weeks due to work and a scheduled vacation.  During my time away I found myself getting back into what I call lazy mode. My body started aching, I felt out of sync, and I obviously felt like my weight was coming back that I have worked really hard to lose. But even with all those horrible feelings I was getting, I still managed to feel like I was satisfied with myself.  Lazy mode had sit in.  It is easy to get comfortable living a sedentary lifestyle. The reason is simple, lazy is fun. The problem with that is also obvious, health conditions start to worsen, weight gain comes at you, anxiety sits in, and depression likes to sit in. So, when It was time for me to return to working out in the morning, I had to fight myself and the lazy mode syndrome to get up again at 4:15 to prepare for these lovely beatdowns. I know it is easier to lay in bed that extra hour or two, but I also know that it is beneficial for myself to stay healthy.  If not for myself, then for my family, who is counting on me to be here for them. I challenge everyone today to take a good look at where they are getting into lazy mode. It can be things other than working out. Are you being lazy with your marriage? Not being the best husband, father, sibling, son, or lazy serving your creator?  Is it time to get back on the horse and being a better role model for your family, for your God? Getting back to what you are supposed to be doing may not be easy, and we all go through times where we get into ruts in life. I say saddle up fellas and keep fighting the good fight. We are meant to overcome challenges in life and remember that everyone falls off the horse at times, but the true HIM’s finds ways to get back on that horse to continue his journey! AYE?!
