Day 9

Plan to work, and work to plan.

Goals are great for defining the vision of where you want to go in life, but how you will get there is critical to making your goals a reality. Goals are nothing without a plan of action to move you from point A to point B. Determine first where you are--your health status (now would be a good time for a checkup), your weight, and your fitness level (can you walk briskly without passing out?). Look at the areas that need strengthening and determine how to proceed. If you can't walk and talk at the same time, it's time to start exercising. Short of breath all the time, but you're still smoking? You know what to do--quit! Much too heavy, and you know it? Do your research. Look into the many food programs (diet is now a bad word) and determine which one would be best for you.
