“Jesus said, "Any of you who does not give up everything he has cannot be my disciple" (Luke 14:33). We must honestly face the question, "Am I willing to give up a certain practice or habit that is keeping me from holiness?" It is at this point of commitment that most of us fail. We prefer to dally with sin, to try to play with it a little without getting too deeply involved.” GivingTryingLittlesDoeSaidPlayFacesCertainJesusSinPracticeFailingWillingHabitInvolvedGiving UpCommitmentHonestlyHolinessDiscipleNot Giving UpLuke Book:The Pursuit of Holiness Source: The Pursuit of Holiness

“Gandhi said 'One cannot do right in one area of life whilst he is occupied in doing wrong in another; Life is one indivisible whole.' This point of wisdom is profound. A commitment to excellence is not just reserved for a few select areas of your life - it must be reflected in everything you do. Your diet must reflect your commitment to excellence. Your physique must reflect your commitment to excellence. Your personal habits must reflect your commitment to excellence and your thoughts must reflect a commitment to excellence.” SaidWholeLife IsHabitCommitmentAreasExcellenceProfoundDietsSelectReservedAnother LifeIndivisiblePhysiqueCommitment To Excellence Author:Robin Sharma

It's up to you to say, 'I do have the time.' For me, beginning to run when I was a student was an ideal situation. However, I've also trained as much as 130 miles per week during periods when I worked a full-time job. It ultimately becomes second nature.
