Depth, Finding Purpose On The Days When You Just Can't See Any.
Purpose
It's that little flame
That lights a fire
Under your ass
Ha!
Purpose
It keeps you going strong
Like a car with
A full tank of gas

RANDOM ACTS OF FITNESS:
MY CENTERS IMPLEMENT PROGRAMS TODAY THAT INSPIRE PEOPLE TO MOVE THROUGH LIFE AND SPORT WITH - Low Impact Circuit, Walk Away the Pounds, Yoga, Water Aerobics, Masters Swim Team and the FitClub.
The Random Acts of Fitness is important to me as my MISSION STATEMENT - TO IMPLEMENT PROGRAMS TO INSPIRE OTHERS TO MOVE THROUGH LIFE AND SPORT. This is my purpose and sometimes I need to remind myself what we are doing at work fuels me. Some days I need to be reminded more than others and today is one of those days. Tonight I will be hosting BINGO. Yeah, BINGO. It's done through a computer so I just hit buttons for about two and a half hours. About half way through the event we serve Ice Cream. Pretty much the whole time I just stare at the computer and think about quiting. I do remind myself that this may be the only time someone might be leaving their home and getting out. Maybe they are a caregiver for a spouse and once a month they do BINGO. So I'm helping them to get out to move through life. It's just hard at that point. It's sometimes hard to find purpose I know I struggle with it.
DIRECT ACTS OF FITNESS - Taught spin this morning to 14 individuals. The class was struggling before me and I'm getting consistent numbers. Many of them keep asking for me to teach the other mornings. It's moments like that on top of sitting around bored running BINGO that sometimes makes me wish I was still working at a gym.
SENIOR GAMES:
