Why Running 4 Your Life?

Why “Running 4 Your Life”?

When we hear the expression, “Run For Your Life!” it is almost always said with urgency, and it implies, “SAVE yourself – Do whatever it takes!”

“Running 4 Your Life” is about taking ACTION – present, ongoing steps to improve the 4 major areas of your life – physical, emotional, relationships, and spiritual – no matter what it takes.

Also, I love to run. So, for me Running is a metaphor for the way I do things. And the way I approach my running is the way I approach everything else in my life:

  • I am committed to staying physically fit
  • I am enthusiastic and have a positive outlook on life
  • I plan ahead, manage my time, and am disciplined in following my plan
  • I persist until I succeed, and I never give up
  • I commit to a goal and then focus on the process
  • I help and encourage other people to break through barriers
  • I finish what I start

I will often use running examples to illustrate a principle, but you don’t have to be a runner to apply the teaching. It’s just that I learn so many lessons through my running.

So, in my blog posts, I hope that I’m able to help inspire you to make healthy connections in all areas of your life.
