You see, I have yet to broadcast the news. My wife and sons know. My boss knows. My younger brother knows. That's it. Why haven't I called everyone I know to shared the news? After all, am I not excited to be a part of this season? Am I not looking forward to learning how to take better care of myself? You bet I am! Trust me ... I know this is a privilege and a honor. I'm sincerely grateful for this opportunity. So why haven't I shared the news?
Well, I freely confess that I'm just a little intimidated and nervous. I'm not afraid of what my family, friends, etc. will think (I know they'll be supportive). I just know that I've never succeeded at something like this. Call me crazy if you will, but my plan is to start making these changes and then have people notice it. When they ask what's going on in my life, then I will finally spill the beans. For some weird reason, I don't want to announce that I'm a contestant. I want to fight to be noticed for having some measure of success.
Now don't get me wrong ... I'm not trying to hide my involvement. I know it's not really a secret. But I do know the way I'm wired, and it gives me a little extra motivation to feel like I need to first earn the right to tell someone that I am a part of this great program.
