“Life is like a bicycle: you don’t fall off unless you stop pedaling.”~Claude Pepper
I was in a funk this morning and rather than look at my “to-do” list one more time and feel overwhelmed and distracted, I decided to take a break and go for a bike ride.
I hadn’t been on this particular hilly, strenuous ride in months, so that alone elevated my mood. Although I must confess as I was leaving I had the desire to be done already with the ride, to just feel good but not have to sweat it out and climb all those hills. I actually coached myself by saying aloud: “You can’t feel good until you do the work. So just start peddling.” It felt like a Nike moment.
And with that pep talk, I was off.
About ¾ into the ride I was feeling the hard work in my calves, yet my brain was in flow, open to problem solving and creative strategies that likely wouldn’t have happened sitting in my office. I felt stronger and engaged and ready to get back to reinvent my day. When I took that final decent into my driveway I was energized and grateful that I had pushed myself to get to the other side.
Getting to the other side of a goal or moving intentionally through a life transition is a lot of work. It takes grit, focus and emotional energy that can be both exhausting and exhilarating. Sometimes, like this morning, I just wanted to feel the exhilaration without the exhaustion. But we all know it doesn’t work that way.

One more thing is that when looking for a good on-line electronics retail outlet, look for web shops that are consistently updated, always keeping up-to-date with the newest products, the very best deals, and helpful information on goods and services. This will make certain you are doing business with a shop that really stays atop the competition and gives you what you should need to make knowledgeable, well-informed electronics purchases. Thanks for the essential tips I’ve learned from the blog.
