That's What It's All About!

Yesterday at church our pastor had us stand up to do the Hokey Pokey! Remember that from when you were a kid?

"You put your right foot in, you put your right foot out,

You put your right foot in and you shake it all about.

You do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around.

That's what it's all about!"

It was great to stand up and move in the middle of the sermon and that's a familiar childhood classic so people could easily sing along.

But he wasn't just giving us a movement break like it was in kindergarten. He used it to illustrate a point.

Where in life do you have one foot in and one foot out?

Hmmm. Good question.

Is it your faith? Your family? Fitness? Friendships? Finances? Food? Fill in the blank...

If we're honest with ourselves, we all could answer that question in one way or another.

Let's focus on fitness and nutrition since that's what we do.

If we have one foot in, we're working towards a goal. But if something appealing comes up - like cake, cookies, wine, etc. - we're easily persuaded. We eat healthy throughout the week and then make up for it with too many treats on the weekend.

If we have one foot in, we're working out a few times each week.  But we don't have a goal or plan with progressions that will help build muscle and starve fat.

If we have one foot in, we might be following a workout plan but aren't addressing nutrition, sleep or stress. All of which play major roles in the big picture.

If you have one foot in, is it time to turn yourself around?

When we have both feet in, we're all in. We're fully committed - no matter what.

When we have both feet in, we have support and accountability. And when unexpected obstacles come our way, we declare our plan and hold true to ourselves.

When we have both feet in, we remember our purpose, picture ourselves at the finish line, the favorite jeans fit, and we keep moving forward until we reach the goal.

When we have both feet in, we are in control.

Sounds pretty good to have both feet in doesn't it?

Is it time to turn yourself around?

That's what it's all about!
