I wish I read more. I wish I meditated every morning for ten minutes. I wish I meditated every morning for two minutes. I wish I did yoga a few times a week. I wish I ran four days a week.

I did run four days a week, for a number of weeks, and that was pretty recently. I ran for more weeks than it's been weeks since I stopped running. I can start running again. I made it a priority before; I just have to make it a priority again.

All I have to do is decide that I'm going to run again every weekday. And then I put my running clothes out, and put them on about an hour before my run. I remind myself that just going out and walking is still 1,000 percent better than not going out at all. I remind myself that it gets to be as easy as I want it to be. I remind myself that it is not about meeting any goal beyond getting out and doing it. I remind myself that if I don't want to run, there are other things I can get out and do.

I can make reading and meditating and writing and yoga a priority, too. My life. Mine to do with what I want. Only one.
