Thank you to each of you who responded to my blog “Living Outside the box! Doing it when you don’t feel like it!” This is an important part of life that will be covered in my new book, “Fully Alive.”
If you haven’t read that blog and the comments my friends left, click on the link above and read the very inspiring stories of how my friends face difficult circumstances.
I promised to give you my response to the question, “How do you keep doing it when you don’t feel like it?”
So here it goes.

People often ask me, “Ken, how do you get up and do comedy and present a message of hope on those nights when you don’t feel funny and you not exactly bubbling over with enthusiasm?

Today I woke up early determined to run up the mountain to two beautiful lakes. This is exercise at it’s best and I was committed to reaching the lakes in less than an hour. The route is all up hill amid towering pines paralleling a rambunctious stream. As I labored upward there was only one thing on my mind. Make the trip in 60 minutes. Okay, I was also thinking of oxygen.

Today I realized I am headed for failure.
Over the past few years I have lost 47 lbs, I am in better shape than most men my age, and I feel better than I have in years. The process has been at times painful, discouraging and at times exhilarating. Unlike most other parts of my life, Last year I had six guys who shared the journey toward health with me. This year I am doing it alone. I can’t do this alone.

If the craziness in this “world gone wild” has you feeling helpless and confused this may be a post worth reading.
