10 pounds lighter ever since

Late July. Water is 37 degrees. You can guess what happened next. What i would have never guessed is that the 10 pounds i shed between end of July and end of September would stay off.

Lean is Nature’s way. It’s exhilarating. It’s like being a kid full of physical vibrancy.
dad

In nature, being lean is the best you can do. You will never be so far past survival that you get to carrying extra weight (unless you hibernate every winter). In nature, survival keeps you lean. Why? Because survival (and reproducing) are your only jobs. And if you hibernate, do you have any idea how lean you are in the Spring?

Magic happens when you prioritize your priorities. Never had a clue until i lived this at Disney.
dad

Life is challenging and confusing enough. So many moving parts and unknowns. To slay decision-fatigue and constant whack-a-mole living, priorities teach you to live proactively versus reactively. You’ll still have to react, but you’ll be much better prepared (stronger and more resilient) than if you didn’t prioritize your priorities.
