I started running this Spring though and I really enjoy it. Nope, I'm not the fastest or the farthest but I like it anyway. I joined Runner's Lounge and got a free "I AM A RUNNER" bracelet and wear it when I'm running to remind myself that even if I don't feel like it, I am a runner. It's very good motivation.

Every once in a while, I will see an article detailing people's greatest fears. Public speaking is usually at or right near the top. Public speaking. (Full disclosure...I hate public speaking) Thanks for the wake-up call. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to give a speech about learning the banjo!

That is so true - I never looked at it that way but it is too easy to be "dumb" these days. Why learn anything? Why get motivated? Just let others make the decisions for you, right? Well whether we are talking about business or eating or fitness or dieting or heck even religion - that is so true. There are few people in this world who are actually willing to step up and take accountability and charge of their own life. It is too bad as it would make their life better in so many ways.
