FINISHING STRONG, 4. YOUR POT: NEVER UNDERESTIMATE IT!

"A fit, healthy body—that is the best fashion statement" - Jess C. Scott


Today, we will continue on the 10 Ps' to finishing strong as we examine the fourth of the Ps: it represents your "POT". I'm certain you must have heard the phrase "Liquid content only", it is generally a phrase indicating that a buyers purchase rights cover the content of a product and not necessarily its container. However, my focus here is on the container and not as much as the content. No matter how expensive a perfume is, if the container is broken it become lost - the content spills. Your POT, here, symbolizes your body.

As an adult of average weight, here is a breakdown of your bodily - your pot - accomplishment in twenty-four hours. Your heart beats 103,689 times, your blood travels 168,000,000 miles. You breathe 23,040 times, you inhale 438 cubic feet of air, you eat about 3.25 pounds of food, and you drink about 2.9 quarts of liquids. Also, you process 7/8 pounds of waste, speak 4,800 words: including the unnecessary ones. Then, you move 750 muscles, your nails and hair grows .000046 and .01714 inches respectively. You exercise 7,000,000 brain cells and many more. What an awesome container. Your body is the vehicle God has given you to achieve every great purpose under the sun, it is worth taking care of.

Never forget that you are a tripartite being: you are a spirit, you possess a soul, and you live in a body. Even though you are first and foremost a spirit being and possess a magnificent soul that has incredible abilities and potential to achieve and do great things, note that none of it can be achieved once your body is broken in sickness, caught in an addiction, or death. Friends, so you can become all that God has destined you to be, NEVER disdain, disregard or abuse your POT.
