laschutz's blog

hi everybody! just noticed the site has been quiet for a bit, so i just thought i would post a blog entry to see what is everyone doing and what is their scene currently?

spring is almost here and then summertime! cannot wait for summer! besides all the outdoor activity, can't wait for the great summer movies and the great summer concerts i go to! well, everyone have a good day!

in sound mind and sound body! larry

No matter how or what you celebrate, here's hoping everyone will have a happy holiday season in the company of family and friends! Be careful out there in the world!

here's to 2011!

hi everybody, both new and old members of this site! here's wishing you all a safe and happy thanksgiving. if you can't finish the leftovers, send them my way! lol!

on a serious note, what are you thankful for? have you taken the time to sit and think about it if only for a few moments.

think about the miracle that your alive, the air you breathe, the 5 senses you use every moment of the day, the muscles and bones and ligaments and tissues and cells that enable you to do the amazing and the little everyday motions of your life.

hi everybody! just thought i would post some thoughts. been sick for a week now! which means no working out! bummer! i never get sick too, i mean i'm one of those people who gets sick like every few years, but i've got it bad right now.

went to the doc who said i have not only a bad cold, but bronchitis! so just taking it easy and resting up, eating healthy food, tons of juice/antioxidants/vitamin c and taking prescribed meds.

i can totally pinpoint the reason for my current sickness too. it's the combination of 3 things

1)stress 2)lack of sleep and 3) changing fall weather.

hi everyone! it's wednesday morning, october 13 as i type this, just had to say and post about the miraculous recovery effort of the miners in chile! finally a feel good story on television and the newspapers!

let's hope the recovery of all the miners continue to run smoothly and they are all safe and sound soon!

i have to say i was up till 2 this morning watching this. and likewise i admit i bawled my eyes out when i saw the first miner saved and his young son crying with tears of joy running to hug his papa!

what can i say "i'm a softie!" lol!

The road to success in life is filled with speed bumps- even for some of history's greats.

1)Michael Jordan was once cut from his high school basketball team. "I've failed over and over again in life. That is why I succeed".
2)Donald Trump was $1 billion in debt at one point in the 1990's. "i refused to give up. Defeat is not in my vocabulary.
3)Babe Ruth in his pursuit of the home run record, also landed the record for most strikeouts. "Every strike brings me closer to the next home run".

in continuance from Part 1:

9) Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.

10) Consider the rights of others before your own feelings and the feelings of others before your own rights.

11) Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

12) Don't measure yourself by what you have accomplished, but by what you should have accomplished with your ability.

13) it's what you learn after you know it all that counts.

14) Talent is God-given. Be humble. Fame is man-given. Be grateful. Conceit is self-given. Be careful.

Hi everyone! this week's installment on inspiration for perspiration, which by the way is not just exercise and health related, but i hope spurs everyone in every aspect of your life, even in the smallest way comes from the quotes from the late, great legendary UCLA basketball coach John Wooden, who not only was a coach, but mentor and motivational leader to his players and to the world of sports.

1) Things turn out best for the people who make the best of the way things turn out.

2) Never mistake activity for achievement.

3) Be prepared and be honest.

Hi everyone! hopefully this will be the start and continuing blog/post on this website all about motivation in your lives, not only in regard to exercise and fitness, but becoming the best you all around in every aspect of your life.

A recent useful tool i have discovered is the magazine SUCCESS.

just wanted to say what's up everyone! monday is my birthday, august 23rd, and no, i will not tell you how old i will be either, whether in years, months or days!

because in the rules i have made up in my own mind i'm 25 (again!) now, here me out this is where i came up with this number!

first off you can't count the years from being born to about 5 years old because you don't know what the heck is going on! lol!

and then you can't count the ages from 6 to 18 because you live at home and have to listen to your parents and what not!
