Why 1 second 2 live? We live our lives based on the decisions we make 1 second at a time. Sometimes our decisions don’t even take that long. The decisions that we make 1 second at a time, can mean the difference between a happy healthy life, or illness and an early death.
For myself, the many bad choices I have made did not even feel like I was choosing at the time. I was living in the ignorance of what happens to me is either good or bad fortune instead of a culmination of small choices I have made along the way. These seemingly insignificant choices I made throughout my life have lead to addictions, health problems, obesity, depression, spiritual bankruptcy and financial hardship. All of which could have been avoided with some forethought as to what small choices I was making at the time.
Often times, the small choices I made I was not even cognizant I was choosing something. I was fulfilling a desire or indulging a craving and telling myself “I need this” or “I deserve this” and not thinking about the long term implications of what continuing to live this way day after day would do to me as a whole person over time.
So, here I am, a 44 year old obese father and husband with another little girl on the way. I am realizing the impact my choices have made not only on myself, but also on my family and those around me. Through this blog I will be journaling my attempt to turn things around through intentional living. I will be sharing thoughts, stories, recipes, exercise routines and progress. I am choosing life by making good choices, one second at a time.
