Why Running 4 Your Life?
Why “Running 4 Your Life”?
When we hear the expression, “Run For Your Life!” it is almost always said with urgency, and it implies, “SAVE yourself - Do whatever it takes!”
“Running 4 Your Life” is about taking ACTION - present, ongoing steps to improve the 4 major areas of your life - physical, emotional, relationships, and spiritual - no matter what it takes.
Also, I love to run. So, for me Running is a metaphor for the way I do things. And the way I approach my running is the way I approach everything else in my life:
- I am committed to staying physically fit
- I am enthusiastic and have a positive outlook on life
- I plan ahead, manage my time, and am disciplined in following my plan
- I persist until I succeed, and I never give up
- I commit to a goal and then focus on the process
- I help and encourage other people to break through barriers
- I finish what I start
I will often use running examples to illustrate a principle, but you don’t have to be a runner to apply the teaching. It’s just that I learn so many lessons through my running.
So, in my blog posts, I hope that I’m able to help inspire you to make healthy connections in all areas of your life.
