Day 588- We are nearing another milestone

This reminds of the reported and feared ""Checkpoint Charlie".Now, before I go ahead and do some research on this I am going to reflect on its purpose. If I recall correctly ole "Check Point Charlie" was the place all visitors had to pass before they returned to communist East Berlin. Here were the questions they would ask: Who are you? Where have you been? What did you do there? Where are you going? What is your purpose for going there? Who do you plan on seeing there? What is your purpose for being with that person or persons? Pretty tough questions I always thought.

I suppose the concept of ""Checkpoint Charlie"." was to let you know if you come to visit we want to know everything about you and we will be watching your every move. Nice huh? In my opinion, life to that degree asks us the same questions. Who are you? Where you been? Where are you going ? When you get there what are you going to do? What is your purpose?
As a brief summary it has been said that the core abilities needed to succeed come down to these:

• accountability- you have got to answer to someone ( that someone maybe you)-boomerang.
• coach ability- you have to follow someone who has been where you want go.
• responsibility- you need to respond to given situations effectively.
• compatibility- people need to feel that they can like and trust you.
• stick ability- when things do not go right you have got to have the drive to stick with it.

Back to ""Checkpoint Charlie".". If you are not constantly asking these questions someone else will ask them and answer them for you. Just like our buddies at the iron curtain they will run your life.

So, keep asking yourself these questions. I am sure if you are on the right track you have been asking and answering these questions for a long time. If that's the case, then spread the wealth. Help someone next to you understand what you already know. I am no authority on the bible but the bible says, "Christ was brought to this earth so we can all live more abundantly". Well, let us all live more abundantly".

We must constantly ask........yes, and keep asking.----Day 588 is coming soon!

I freaking nailed it today! Burned 480 calories in the 1st half hour and 483 in the next 1/2 hour- WHOOSH- Burned 963 calories in 60 minutes that is 16 calories per minute for a hour. Can I get an AMEN? CIGA? The best part is that I felt great during the ride and after the ride. I found the flow - CIGA? I charged ahead with 26 minutes of plank and then 700+ crunches a good solid stretch session then out the door.
