They, whoever they are, say we touch the lives of every person we come into contact with. This is a wonderful example of that very thing. Good for you for making a positive impact on others' lives.

I was in a meeting last week with our CFO...a quiet and unassuming guy that I see nearly daily. I noticed he seemed thinner...he had lost 35 pounds! He said "I was inspired by your exercise and weight loss".

It is not always what we say, but often how we choose to live that cause others to take pause and self reflect. This is a 12-step principle, to live your life that make others want what you have. Good for you!!!!

That's great! It's true...you never know who might be watching (whoa, that sounds creepier than intended) but sometimes seeing other folks accomplish things makes others think, hey...if they can do it, so can I. Way to be a great example!
