At the beginning of the year, I committed to take one small step to improve my health. My small step was to do 10 pushups a day. I’ve done this every day except for a week when I had the flu.
Part of making successful change is not getting too wrapped up in results. That I’ve done what I committed to do and will continue it is a success. The bigger successes are built on these little ones. I already think the practice of the pushups is changing the way I think about exercise and eating.
Since this blog is called small steps BIG CHANGES, I do feel some obligation to address the changes. In January, I lost 4 pounds and 0.25 inch of my waist. At that rate, I’ll need 2 years to reach my ideal weight. Even so, I’d rather make incremental changes that last than quick changes that don’t. I’ve updated th
e chart from my first post to show my progress.
