• Discipline of Walking
I went to a Coach’s Training Conference in Baltimore in late January. There I had various Coaching Experiences learning skills in the art of leadership coaching. One of my Coaching sessions, where I was being coached, resulted in my setting a goal for walking my neighborhood cul-de-sac streets five times a week.
Well, since I returned home, I have been doing pretty well. The hardest part is not being home to do the walk. However, while I am home, I am doing the discipline…walking the streets of my neighborhood five days out of seven. It takes about 30 minutes for me to complete the route. So I am feeling good about my effort so far. I am getting used to a certain stride, that I can easily maintain, which is not a race, but a steady effort. I am not trying to “over do it” either, just a comfortable brisk pace.
I am wanting to stay active, so I can maintain my endurance for my ministry opportunities to travel. It seems to be working for me. Maybe walking might work for you?
