Leading The Insanity 90 Day Challenge

Somehow (and as usual), I've become the Leader of an Insanity 90 Day Challenge.  People from all over the United States have joined my cyber exercise challenge and for the next 90 days; they have committed themselves to doing the program and being the very best they can health-wise.  Since I'm their leader, I'm doing the same.  It's been a long time since I've truly committed myself to a specific goal and I'm up to the challenge.  I'm going to workout 6 days/week for the next 90 days, be quite mindful of my caloric intake, abstain from acohol, and try to be as gluten-free as possible. I will inspire, guide, coach and encourage my teammates to achieve their goals.  It's only been 3 days into the challenge, and already I've been receiving emails from folks who are 'alarmed' that my new challenge will affect their socialization with me....interesting, very interesting.  After years of maintaining an extremely spartan lifestyle while being a full combat Muay Thai fighter, I know how to socialize and enjoy myself without indulging in fatty meals or alcohol.  After all, if you didn't have the option of indulging, you wouldn't be missing the item anyhow...right?  So, it's mind over matter.  It gave me food for thought and I'll share it with you today...

Here's Your Healthy Tip of the Day:  Leadership requires integrity, honor, focus, self-discipline and accountability.  You are Your Word....period.  A great leader leads by example.  Followers are like leaves in the wind; swishing and swashing whichever way is easiest.  Ask yourself today - are you a leader or a follower?
