I have been threatening to do this for a long time. However, this evening while I was remote surfing - (did you know that men are not interested in what is on TV - we are interested in WHAT ELSE is on TV!) - I came across a documentary on MTV called "I used to be fat" about a high school girl who lost 95 lbs from 258lbs to 163lbs after setting herself a 111 day target.
Well that did it for me. She said she gave up one summer to have the rest of her life.
There is was - simple clear and honest. I KNOW that all it takes is ONE 90-day period to completely change the direction of your life.
So this will be my diary, my journal over the next 90 days from June 1 2012 until August 31 2012 and I am going to record and measure my progress over that time. I need to lose 32kg which is around 70lbs or 4 stone. Yukk! 70 lbs sounds much less daunting.
No-one may ever read this blog and that's ok. this is my journey - Brian's Absolute Clarity I'm calling it. Absolute Clarity is the name of my business. I have a registered Trademark on those words Absolute Clarity® so I own them and decided to use them for what will be probably the most important 90 days of my future life.
Time enough for humour, witticisms and sharp Irish observation. This is the start, a simple unadorned quiet start. I have had so many starts on this journey before, I have no desire to proclaim it. in fact, if i launched it with fanfare, no-one who knows me would come. There have been too many previous launches. So off I go, quietly, with low expectations but a glimmer of hope. But Hope is the glimmer that leads to Faith and i know He is with me and He has promised that He "will not break a bent reed or extinguish a guttering glimmer og hope". But instead He will guard it and breathe life into it so that what was once so faint will grow to shine brightly. That is my hope for this journey.
All the Best, Brian.
