Now that you have prepared for any challenge in your way. You can’t wait to go out and prove yourself to the world!
Today you are making history!!! Today is a day for the ages. What you achieve today is a story you’ll tell your kids and grand kiddo’s over and over (nauseously) just so see their eyes widen when you say, “That was me! I did this!”
Take a moment to think of all the great first moments in sports history: The very first Olympics. Tom Brady’s first touchdown pass, Your first pair of $125.00 Lululemon yoga pants and Tim Tebow running shirtless in the rain. What you achieve today will be right there, the pinnacle of all of these great moments.
Completely off topic. Here is our solution to the empty seat(s) mess at the London Summer Olympics:

I’m a groomswoman in a Hemingway-ish wedding, and I’ve started reading him lately. So, in addition to the pure awesomeness of that quote’s context – I’m on such a Hemingway kick anyways! LOVE!
Some of his words that I apply to life everyday … Write drunk. Edit sober. 😉
epic advice!!
got to be having fun 🙂 if it ain’t fun, something is wrong! have a great day!
I believe Hemingway had it right. 🙂
Okay! The page downloaded after a while.
So…you want me to do the oppoisite of yesterday. Okay! Well, the day before yesterday (when it wasn’t raining) I walked so fast – probably because I was so happy about losing 8.4 pounds in three weeks! But yesterday I walked in the rain and was 200 calories slow but one minute longer. So…I should walk like I’m really excited about something!
8.4 lbs in three weeks? Awesome!!!
I wish I could have ever fit anything that Lululemon makes. They have nice clothing, but the sizes are incredibly small. Side note, I am not that big. 🙂 Sorry for the rant. Love the post.
Please don’t get me started with LuLu … 😉 As a guy I know way too much about them! Nothing screams I have money to waste than buying their gear. Sure they are comfy and last a long while although everyone has them and they are no longer unique or cool. I always get a chuckle out of the person who shows up for class for the first time with $$$ worth of kit on. Yup your ass looks smoking hot at Starbucks but those pants do nothing for you in terms of practicing yoga. From what I have been told these other brands are pretty good:

Pay close attention to the last link from what I have been told … Take care and be well/comfy!!!
Ha! Maybe it is a good thing that I can not fit any of there stuff. Thanks for the link. 🙂
