Day #10 - The Wager

   So yet another day in the life of this great project of mine and I'm doing great I must say. I've been doing the 7 weeks to 100 push ups and at first I was really shaky but now I'm really getting in the swing of things. It's astonishing what a little hard work and sticking to your guns can do!! The results , even after only a week and a half, are so apparent that I'm beginning to lose sight of what I used to look like! I'll be posting my week 2 progress photos on Friday. There are other things I do in my workout program and I'll be sure to detail all of it during my Friday Vlog, if you so choose to join my mayhem. It's not a long work out...but its a potent one!

  So the other day I was sitting with my good friend Jim, and as he was about to leave he said, "So Sean, when you start smoking again I wanna be there for it". For a moment I was taken back, wondering if he was kidding or if he was serious. I then replied "What do you mean when, don't you mean IF...and even in that I don't plan on ever smoking again". He smiled and said "Sean, you've tried this before, and you always come back, so WHEN you smoke again I want to be there". "Really?" I retorted as I half-rolled my eyes , "I bet you." said Jim. Now I harbor no ill-will towards Jim and his statements. Honestly, if you look at my past track record every time I aimed to quit or start something, I never followed through. I had a bad case of the lazies. Here's the kicker though, if you compare then to now still, you'll also notice back then I had a tendency to cut corners and act as if I'm trying when I really wasn't. 


Things have changed.


   The old me would have hid away trying to smoke that cigarette butt out of anyone's eyesight and still claim I've quit smoking. The old me would have worked out one day and stayed claiming that I'm a gym rat. The old me would find any and all excuses to justify any action that I knew would only harm me in the long run. NOT ANYMORE. Now I do my best every day all day and with a smile on my face, because at the end of the day I know I put 100% into my entire day and into myself. 


So, Jim, I take you up on that bet. If you could only realize you've given me even more fuel to push to a successful end. Then again, that may have been your intention all along...who knows...but either way...thanks buddy. Now I'm going to give this my all and then some!!!
