It's been awhile....

It's been awhile since I have written anything and what can I say, life was busy. It got in the way. But there is more to it than that. I didn't know how to write my thoughts down as to not offend, because truly, there are some things that I just don't understand.
While I was out of town on business, I had plenty of time to think about my actions. After all, I was named in a lawsuit and had to testify and defend my actions that I performed. While the attorneys made me out to be pushy and aggressive, the way I saw it, and always have, was being proactive. Taking the steps before I needed to. Doing things before they spiraled out of control. Whichever way you look at it, I was just that.
I live my life that way too. I act and do things before I need to, before they are out of control.
Let's take the health. Yep, I workout, more than most, because I consider the act proactive. I think that most people will agree that being fit and staying fit is easier than being very out of shape and taking the first step.
There are people that hate seeing my FB posts, hate seeing that I am much stronger and leaner than I was even a year ago. But it's not because I have sat around and waited for it. I worked at it.
And what I don't understand, is those who don't do it. But as my mom says, live and let live.
I have said it before and I say it again, my entire being is about health. I chose nursing as a profession, because I like to help people get healthy, stay healthy. I chose to teach fitness and be a trainer, because I like to help people change their outlook on fitness.

There are lots of people who don't want help. That's fine, it's their choice. And I know that I can't change it. I can only lead my example.
Here is what I don't understand. I don't understand the ones that think I am crazy for doing what I do. they will fully admit that they are not happy with their weight/health/etc... but they aren't willing to do anything.

 I believe that there is such as entitlement society that people think that they deserve something. Well, since I was 8, I was a worker, delivering catalogues for Sears. I worked for what I wanted. Both financially and physically.  Is there something wrong with that?
Since when is it a bad thing to work for what you want? I would say the opposite, it's bad to expect someone to do it for you.
People who truly understand me, know that I only want their best. And really no less. As a trainer, I will push them harder than they will push themselves, because in the end, they will be successful. And we all want to be successful, right?

Let's go back to the medical and health, why on earth would any person, who is intelligent and can understand the data, just sit back and wait for a silent disease to hit? It will happen, it's just a matter of when. And of course, these people also know that its not to late to turn it around. But they won't.
Yes, I don't understand. It's easier to wait to get a disease and take a pill, than be proactive and work at the healthier option.
Yep, that sounds easier. But as nurse, I promise you, it won't be. because there is an entire syndrome linked to obesity. 8 diseases, that are preventable.
So, don't hate me because I am passionate, proactive and a little obsessed, just know that I am being proactive. I don't want some  medical event to push me to start, I dont want a wake up call.  I would rather be proactive and just set the alarm.
