Week 2

You never know where inspiration will come from. I was driving home from work the other day enjoying Howard Stern on the radio.

In politically correct times, it is refreshing to hear someone say what they are truly feeling without a filter. I don’t agree with everything he says or does. At the same time, those who are quick to judge, more likely than not, have never listened.

I saw someone criticizing Stern for his misogynist nature on Facebook. The next day the same person’s Facebook showed a video they had just watched of girls flashing passing motorists. Don’t throw stones. His views are very nuanced. For the most part, people just need to chill.

Anyways. He said, “Sometimes you just have to move the f**k on.” Yes.

I think the key to success in any habit change is to build some momentum. If you can get past whatever it is that has got you spinning your wheels, you can keep it rolling. Backwards: no good. Stationary: no good. Getting it moving, no matter how slowly, is the key.

I feel like I have it moving in the right direction. The ball is rolling slowly but it is rolling. I don’t think ignoring or forgetting what put in the rut is good thing either. Own it and put it in your back pocket because you may need it. You may need it to remind you why you are passing on that Frosty.
