All along I thought of you as a super-human action hero ;-)<BR/><BR/>In any case, the content of your post, you're willingness to articulate and expose your own foibles, is exactly why I wanted to work with you. <BR/><BR/>I can really identify with your situtation. (And you can identify with my situation.) As a result, I know that you personally have *lived* the advice that you give me.<BR/><BR/>p.s. please post some good protein shake recipes after you get your blender up to speed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34413602.post-1164979600978181742006-12-01T05:26:00.000-08:002006-12-01T05:26:00.000-08:00Franz,Thanks - habits and patterns dictate a lot! ...Franz,<BR/>Thanks - habits and patterns dictate a lot!

We have them to and fall prey to the same undulgences and lazy patterns like anyone else. Only we know better.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for the post because it has made me reflect on my own habit "challenges" as well. Amazing how the "transperency" of another can lift others to do the same. So on the same note I am here to say that I am failing in these areas:<BR/><BR/>1)Too much Caffeine. I have never been a coffee drinker until that least year and a half. I can blame my wife for this one (those Coffee crazed South Americans!)<BR/><BR/>2)Not enough meals. I have been working too much and not scheduling my routine meals. In other words I have failed to plan which mean I am planning to fail.<BR/><BR/>3) Very little flexibility work and mobility work.<BR/><BR/>4) And I need to organize my damn desk :)<BR/>There we have it. Thanks again for your transperancy! Keep up the stretching!Franz Snidemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07214347683076253495noreply@blogger.com
