7. TRANSITION

BB –  We are talking today about “THE POWER OF NEXT”

”

So JT What does that title bring up to your mind? ((JT ANSWERS))

8. Bob – POINT: Learning to say NEXT instead of dwelling on mistakes or setback can be empowering… it also keeps us looking for the future.

Philippians 3:13–16 (ESV) — 13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let those of us who are mature think this way, and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you. 16 Only let us hold true to what we have attained. .

TODAY ---  “THE POWER OF NEXT””

13. JT – This is the PowerBreak Podcast, I’m JT along with Bob Brubaker and this is the –– time for some questions and answers. Feel free to submit your questions by EMAIL TO jtrebino@mac.com and we’ll get to the answer on an upcoming PowerBreak. Podcast…

JT – Question ONE - FROM THE SPIRITUAL SIDE OF LIFE….

Are you implying from your blog that we should just be going around saying NEXT?

14. Bob

It’s much more than that but it’s a simple as that.

Let\’s say you are applying of a job and you’ve prayed about it, and you’ve been diligent in applying, following up, etc. Then you get an interview and you think it went great but you get that letter of rejection. And you feel rejected. What do you do?

You have the choice to make – either dwell on the rejection OR say NEXT and go on to the something else.

Micah 7:8 (ESV) — 8 Rejoice not over me, O my enemy; when I fall, I shall rise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me.

ILL – “Ross Perot” -

DISCUSSION

15. JT – Question Two… “FROM THE MENTAL ASPECT”

How can we mentally bring ourselves to Power Of Next?

16. Bob

Practice it! I guarantee you that you will have setbacks, failures, rejections, both small and great happen in your life. You can practice the power of Next or wallow in the mire…

Just notice how baseball players will step out of the batters box and look at their bat… they are reminding themselves to not look back, even of the last pitch but be ready for the next one.

17. Discussion
18. Third question … Turning to the Physical

Let’s talk about walking… and the new study that found 75 minutes a week walking can produce awesome benefits.

19. Bob ---

Walking has seen a surge in popularity over the past few years, thanks to a slew of research that’s found that it's great for your overall health and longevity. Now, another study has found that you don’t need to log several miles to reap the benefits of walking. Instead, just a few minutes a day could provide a serious boost for your overall health.

So, what’s the deal with this study and why is walking so good for you? Here’s what we know.

The meta-analysis, which was published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, analyzed data from 196 peer-reviewed articles that involved more than 30 million people. The researchers specifically looked at the link between the participants’ physical activity and health.

After crunching the data, the researchers discovered that people who logged 75 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise (which includes brisk walking) per week had a 23 percent lower risk of early death.

When the study authors broke that down even more, they found that 75 minutes a week of moderate-intensity exercise lowered the risk of cardiovascular disease by 17 percent and cancer by seven percent.

Why is walking so good for you?

There are a few reasons why walking is beneficial. For one, it’s approachable.

“There’s no skill hurdle and people aren’t usually intimidated by it,” says Albert Matheny, R.D., C.S.C.S., co-founder of SoHo Strength Lab. You also don’t need extra equipment, meaning you can usually just walk out the door and go.

JT’s Comments

Take Aways – JT …. And Bob

Bob’s final comment – It takes discipline to just get out and walk 75 minutes a week (five days at a mere 15 minutes a day) can get great results in adding to your lifespan.

Point: DISCIPLINE MAKES THE DIFFERENCE --- in all aspects of life
