I'm in pain, but I feel AWESOME!!! Not only am I down another pound, but I just returned from my walk, which I originally planned to go three miles, and during the walk I pushed and went an extra two, making it five miles!! There were plenty of puddles on the ground from the rain, and my feet are covered with blisters, but it still feels AWESOME!!!
I also ate healthy again Monday, which I no longer feel much temptation to cheat. After so long it's not so hard, like anything you put your mind too, although I wouldn't take credit for this lifestyle change that seems to be heaven sent. I feel bad for a lot of my family who continue to eat unhealthy, without naming names. Thankfully, they don't follow my blog. I'm hoping when they see that even I can do it, they'll be encouraged to go for it as well.
I made some great progress on my novel today, working on the outline of the story, which actually helped in the plot and helps writers stay focused on each day of writing. I must give credit to reading "The Art of War for Writers", by James Scott Bell as an inspiration to do so.
Remember there is no such thing as a self-made man. Everyone gets to where they are with help from other people. As the old saying goes, "It's not what you know, but who you know..." For me personally in comedy I would have to say, even though he probably has never read my blog that Tim Hawkins actually helped get me going to being a better comic and where I am now. It was him and his brother Todd who manages him who gave me an opening spot for him in large churches, which helped me become a better comic for larger audiences. I also give credit to Jeff Jena (who I think has read at least one of my blogs) for helping me get started in the comedy clubs, where they WON'T laugh unless you're funny. Who's helped you get to where you are today? Have you ever thanked them?
Looking forward to a new day, and accomplishing more on this journey! Thank you all!
Forever In Christ,
