What's up everyone,

Mario Hostios here- with a timely message, the day after Christmas. (OK, the business day after Christmas).

Here we go.

The annual dissolution of new years resolutions awaits us.

Yes, me too. More than once I have made promises to myself that I failed to keep.

Promise made Jan 7th. Promise broken Feb 13th.

It's a long list, don't get me started.

And for that reason I have adopted the following: I call it the running start into the new year.

5 days before the new year, I take an inventory of my life the past year.

Where I thrived. Where I struggled. What change in perspective & activity could have pivoted struggle into thriving.

What's really important to me right now? What isn't as important as it used to be.

These are the powerful questions that can drive one to moment of clarity & pivot point for action.

And it isn't all worky worky. My aha moment for 2022?

I need to make a point to start having fun again. Seriously.

Now, I practice, preach, & teach the path of the ageless advantage, to be lean & mean into advanced age.

So I will keep on message here for the message you come here for.

Do you NEED to burn off some body fat next year?

Are you resilient enough, in body & mind, to succeed in the face of uncertain challenge?

What is the price you pay, in body, mind, spirit, & wallet, for being less than your best?

Take a couple of minutes with these questions & get clear about where you are and where you want to be.

No brainer decisions become easy to act on when the cost of inertia outweighs the price of momentum.

Momentum is interesting- in that the price of momentum goes down the more momentum you have.

And the cost of inertia, the cost of staying stuck, goes UP the longer it's in place.

Choose momentum. Choose is over and over, until it has a life of it's own.

No promise me you will exercise better in 2023.

I promise you I will have more fun & be more fun in 2023.

Best,

Mario Hostios
