Don't Compare Your Chapter 1 To Someone's Chapter 20 09/25/2017 Sometimes when we make a decision to get into shape, we see someone who is in shape and immediately want to be where they are. If you work at it for a month and are not even close to being as in shape as that person, there is a tendency to give up or to get frustrated. But you see that person who is already in great shape didn't just become that way. They had to spend a long time working for it, gained a lot of experience along the way that helped to stay that way. That person had to fight

Self Pity 04/19/2017 Self-pity blinds us of our blessings and the opportunities God has for us. It steals our hope for both today and tomorrow.

Being Focused 06/09/2016 Being focused is not simply concentrating or staring at something, but visualizing what you are doing or about to do, what is going on and still being aware of what is happening around you. Having a guide in front of you so you can make your movements precise, strong, and controlled.

It shows me that how doing a little more every day goes a long way." This is how most people react to any challenge in life. It is too big, impossible to accomplish. Many quit right away, limiting and doubting themselves. But Doug got the whole
