Earlier today, I realized how much I was looking forward to blogging. I kept running ideas by my inner editorial board and smiling.
It reminded me of how i got about my daily swim at the Jewish Community Center on 14th St. In NYC. I’d make plans around swimming.
Which led me to reviewing ‘good for me behaviors’ that I’ve been consistent about (at least for a period of time):
walking 5 miles in the early morning, practicing the violin, going to a weekly painting class, meditation, doing Yoga.
They all had things in common:
1. Doing them makes me feel good.
2. they have a beneficial effect. They stimulate endorphins and promote well-being.
3. They reflect closely held values and what matters most.
In order for anything to stick and rate a commitment, it’s got to feel good – not just six month down the line, but now.
Blogging feels good and it is late and I am tired. I’ve kept my promise and no more miles to go before I sleep.
