exercise opportunity work-out
The important message I heard about working out and what I want to share is that you create your own opportunities and your own limitations.
exercise simple doors
Whenever I’d try to talk myself out of going for a walk, and there were a few days like that, I’d take myself through a series of simple tasks so I would get up and go. 1. Get up. 2. Find your house keys. 3. Put on some shoes. 4. Grab your iPod. 5. Walk out the front door.

When people said Africa would change me, I didn't understand what they meant. To see the poverty in the townships, for instance, is overwhelming.

When other people reject positive changes you make for yourself, there is always some nerve to get to the root of in those other people.
years ice skills
It's not a diet, it's a way of life that teaches you better skills. For years, I felt like I could never have ice cream, but now I can eat ice cream occasionally!
home chance
I don't get a chance to be home much.

My grandmother always taught me, 'If you don't have a home, family, and church, you don't have anything.
