Help Us Help Kids!
Twice per year there are line-ups of people handing over thousands and thousands of dollars at the arena. I am referring to registration nights for organized sports and recreation. Thousands of kids sign up for house league sports and the parents happily write a cheque. It's like clock work. But not for all. I've been coaching youth baseball in town for a few years now and 2 summers … [Read more...]
Message From Santa
This is of course written with the assumption that your kids still believe in Santa. Even if they are skeptical, this message may turn them back into believers!

What Does Fitness Have To Do With Poppies?
So what does Fitness have to do with poppies? I had to think about it for a while but there is a correlation. Here's a clue: If you were asked, "What do you value the most in your life?" What would you say if I said you could NOT use "family" as your answer? What would you give up or sacrifice over anything else but that one particular thing? Depending on where you are in your life and … [Read more...]
H1N1 Shots – Commentary
H1N1 has made it to the headlines again! This time, it's about the massive line-ups all over southern Ontario. Right here in Uxbridge I heard the waiting times have been hours long. It's amazing how long we'll wait for something if we think it will help us stay healthy. Quite ironic when I think about it. I was at a fitness marketing conference in Orlando a week or so ago. There was a … [Read more...]
Think Twice, Speak Once
The idea of choosing your words carefully sounds easy enough, but how many times do you end up with your foot in your mouth? Everyone can probably recall a situation where someone offended them by saying something rude or out of line. These comments are not only embarrassing, but they can also damage relationships. Even the way you talk to yourself can be hurtful. Instead of saying "I can't," … [Read more...]
