Going into 2023, I had it etched in my mind that I was going to leave the last two years behind, most notably the physical ailments that have Tiffany and I have dragged on with, since March of 2021.

We have been doing our best to continue working out and participating in running events, but at way less capacity than what we were accustomed to for many years before that.

There are a few other goals, Tiffany and I want to accomplish short-term, but I can be honest and say my first two workouts in 2023 have been below average as my injuries continue to hinder my performance.

So when I thought about submitting my first #index4index of 2023 and my seventeenth overall, I was searching for the perfect quote to start the year with and I came upon the following:

*** “Be willing to be a beginner every single morning.” ***- Meister Eckhart

That quote made me think real hard about my intent to be consistent in everything that I do that is important to me: my relationship and now marriage with Tiffany, my health and fitness journey and my goal to be active on the HIVE blockchain daily, no matter in what capacity -show up everyday in all three.

I've done that. I've done that with Tiffany. Since I made my commitment to her, I have been by her side for close to 8 years. When I saw a photo of myself and saw someone who let himself go, I have been excercising and remaining active since February 2014 and when I went all in on HIVE, I have not missed a day since February 2021.

What I learned through all the ups and downs, while maintaining my consistency is that each day is a new day and through the bad and the good, remaining consistent has always provided me with more positives than negative - ALWAYS.

This is a good quote, Jimmy. It's good when having physical ailments and problems.
As we get older our bodies change more and we need to learn to be more patient with ourselves. I had a ballet teach say that our bodies are different all the time. Maybe she meant that with aging bodies. (I was in my 60's in her classes and 69 now)
You are young Jimmy and Tiffany. I'm not saying you are old by any means, but our bodies area always changing and putting up with more outside stresses and things.
Being a beginner every morning will help you deal with the ups and downs of your body more patiently.

Absolutely Barb. It’s a mental game more than the physical, especially as we get older or perhaps at any age.

I love this! There mare many things I have been doing for over 50 years, yet I still find new things to learn. How boring would life be if we could reach a point where we had nothing left to learn? !BBH
