One of the greatest forms of self-development is getting your body in shape.

And it has nothing to do with vanity or looking better in front of the mirror, or even weighing less on the scale.

When you go from being unhealthy to in shape, you will come face-to-face with your deepest fears and biggest weaknesses.

I've seen people come face-to-face with addictions, coping mechanisms, how they have neglected their families, and even realized that they've kept themselves in the wrong relationships.

And for this reason...this is why most people quit.

But those who make it to the other side will gain something far greater. They will gain awareness about themselves. They will reach a new level of self-development.

They will have clarity of body and mind, which they will use to enhance every part of their life.

So understand this: There are no shortcuts. This s**t is hard until it becomes easy.

But when you emerge from the other side, you'll realize it was so worth it.

So don't give up. Stay resilient. Keep showing up.

Your future self is waiting.

I’m as frustrated with the never ending construction as all of you.
Here’s the latest in lane closures and traffic reroute looking to change mid February. I want to thank all of my patients for being patient regarding all of the traffic and construction mess.

🔶U.S. 24 project in SN, JF counties entering next phase

The next phase of the Kansas Department of Transportation’s U.S. 24 improvements project in Shawnee and Jefferson counties is expected to begin next week, as reconstruction of the eastbound corridor between Goldwater Road and Muddy Creek nears completion.

On or around Tuesday, Feb. 10, eastbound U.S. 24 will partially reopen, along with the south K-4/Oakland Expressway ramps and local road tie-ins. Eastbound traffic will be shifted, and both directions of U.S. 24 will be temporarily restricted to their respective outside lanes. Happy Hollow Road and Barton Road will fully close at their U.S. 24 junctions at this time.

On or around Monday, Feb. 16, westbound U.S. 24 will fully close for reconstruction. Both directions will then utilize the eastbound lanes in a single-lane, head-to-head configuration until early 2027.

During this time, the following closures and detours will be in place:

*️⃣Northbound K-4/Oakland Expressway ramp onto westbound U.S. 24 will be closed.
o Detour: Eastbound U.S. 24 to northbound K-4, west on N.E. 46th Street, south on Topeka Boulevard to westbound U.S. 24.

*️⃣Westbound U.S. 24 ramp to southbound K-4/Oakland Expressway will be closed.
o Detour: Westbound U.S. 24 to Topeka Boulevard, loop back onto eastbound U.S. 24 to the southbound K-4/Oakland Expressway exit.

*️⃣Westbound U.S. 24 ramp to northbound K-4 will close for approximately 5 months.
o Detour: Westbound U.S. 24 to Topeka Boulevard, loop back onto eastbound U.S. 24 to the northbound K-4 exit.

*️⃣After the westbound U.S. 24 ramp to northbound K-4 reopens, the southbound K-4 ramp onto westbound U.S. 24 will close.
o Once closed, the detour will be west on N.E. 46th Street, south on Topeka Boulevard to westbound U.S. 24.

Motorists can use the designated detour routes or other routes that are not marked. Traffic will be controlled using signs, channelizers, barricades and temporary pavement markings.

All project work and traffic changes are conditions permitting and subject to change.

More information about the U.S. 24 improvements project can be found on the project website ksdot.gov/US-24-Shawnee-County.

KDOT urges motorists to stay alert and follow posted signs in all work zones. For current road conditions, visit KanDrive.gov or call 511. For updates on highway projects in northeast Kansas, visit ksdot.gov/NortheastNews.

Rodeo Industry: You’re an Athlete, so train like one.

You’ve got it all figured out. You got the horse. You got all the latest and greatest tack. You’ve got the practicing schedule and your horse is on the best supplements in the world…. But why can’t you win anything? Maybe it’s because you’re too tired from staying up late all week binge-watching your favorite shows? Or maybe It’s because your body is weak and sluggish from all the crappy food you put into it and all the alcohol from “catching up with your friends”? Maybe you’re too sore to execute your body positioning correctly because your back muscles are too weak since you haven’t lifted weights since college?

Here’s the tough love you need to hear today: You’re an athlete, so train like one. Your horse can be in the best shape of his or her life. But if you’re not taking care of yourself and training like an athlete, it won’t matter because you won’t be able to execute in the saddle. We spend thousands of dollars every year to ensure our horses are able to perform at the top of their game. So why not take care of yourself too? Go to bed at a decent time during competitions. Put down the junk food and limit the alcohol. Feeling your best the day of your run will allow you to better focus and be able to execute in the saddle. Try to get back in the gym and if your schedule won’t allow it, try to stretch more at home. If you wouldn’t take a grumpy, tired, mare that’s out of shape to go win a national title, then why are you trying to do that to yourself? Make sure you are taking care of your body too. You are an athlete, so train like one.
