Powerful Thing About Goal Setting: ✨🏆✨

********************************************

Have you ever set a goal that changed your energy?

I run at least one full marathon every November. 26.2 miles. This year is my fourth year in a row doing it. 

My goal has always been to FINISH the race in good health with no injuries. And, I always do. So, I am very grateful for that.

I usually go to the gym regularly almost every morning as part of my morning routine. If you’ve been following my page for a while you’d probably know that (thanks for following). 

I exercise to fight off stress and stay healthy! Exercise is not just for looking good and young, it helps you physically, mentally and emotionally. I call it a miracle medicine.

So, why am I telling you all this in the context of “Powerful thing about goal setting”?

It is because I want to highlight to you the importance of setting your goals and what happens when you do!

Once I recently registered and paid for the opportunity to run my fourth marathon in the forthcoming Two City Marathon - Fresno/Clovis California USA 🇺🇸 in November 2024, I noticed a positive shift in my energy and motivation to train! 

My mind knows that I do this every year and yet the shift in my focus happened once I registered.✅

This morning I woke up early as usual but I decided to quickly go on the running trail and do a quick 4 mile run before my day started. Treadmill running is different from outdoor running. Rule of thumb in marathon training is that you need to run 24 miles total every week to be ready!

Setting the goal concretely helped put me in a different gear!

Have you noticed a similar shift in your goal setting?

  The Dangers of Opioid Drug Abuse and Addiction Hello, I’m Dr. Vince Ntukogu, a pharmacist based in California. Today, I want to address a pressing public health issue that continues to affect countless individuals and families across our nation: the dangers of opioid drug abuse and addiction. While opioids can be effective for managing pain, their misuse poses significant risks that warrant our attention and action.  Understanding Opioids Opioids are a class of drugs that include prescription pain relievers, synthetic opioids like fentanyl, and illegal substances such as heroin. They work by binding to specific receptors in the brain, blocking pain signals and producing feelings of euphoria. This mechanism is what makes them effective for pain relief but also what makes them highly addictive. The Rise of Opioid Abuse Over the past two decades, opioid prescriptions have skyrocketed, leading to increased availability and, unfortunately, misuse. According to the National Instit...

No matter how big your current challenge is, I bet you that it’s not bigger than mine! For things to change, you have to change. For things to get better, you have to get better. - Jim Rohn. Me, you, we have to look forward and keep learning and implementing consistently. If you don’t Give up, you will eventually Win. I  don’t Give up.  I have learnt that lesson and it’s highly recommended for anyone who wants to win in this game of work, business and life. It’s a marathon and not a sprint!  If you’re feeling stuck right now, ask yourself these simple questions! Where do you want to be five years from now? What does work look like?
