Non-negotiables

The Story of Bill Arnold

“Try your gimmicks if you must, but I promise you the truth is in the basics. Make it fun. Be creative. Challenge yourself, but also cut yourself some slack.”

My buddy Bill is one of the funniest guys I’ve ever met. He’s on the road all the time, but he’s managed to make his health and his faith the two top priorities in his life. Here’s his story and advice in his own words:

“I think Allen Konigsberg said, ‘90 percent of life is just showing up.’ That's pretty simple! Invite discipline in (show up at the gym and actually work out) and watch it act like your best friend. Discipline gets a bad rap, but it’s really our pal! Discipline liberates us. If you have the discipline to train hard, you have the freedom to enjoy a strong body. If you have the discipline toeat well, the energy you get gives you the freedom to live life to the fullest!
