Although we may seem to diverge from Health and Fitness this week by acknowledging Ada Lovelace Day, in fact – we are not straying from wellbeing.
Daughter of the poet, Lord Byron, Ada Lovelace was brought up by her mother with a “strict upbringing in logic, science and mathematics.”
Quoting directly from Days of the Year Website about October 8th, this year’s 2nd Tuesday in October …
Ada Lovelace Day is a worldwide celebration of the achievements that women have made in STEM industries, which stands for science, technology, engineering, and maths. The day is about increasing the profile of females in STEM. The hope is that by doing this we will help to create new role models for women all across the globe! This will help to encourage more females to take roles within STEM sectors.
Appreciation for STEM education grew during San Diego years when I was very involved with the American Association of University Women San Diego Branch.
My connecting the STEM math and science Life approach with Health and Fitness can be found in motivational speaker Brian Tracy’s CD – 21 Great Ways to Live to Be 100, to which I have listened multiple times.
In the diet and nutrition section of his talk, Brian Tracy said…“Everything Counts.”
“Eureka!” – My mind said… “I have found the secret to maintaining a healthy weight!”
“Success is found in the minutiae of every bite, every ingested calorie.”
“Be aware of your numbers….Do not think for a minute that excess fat cells are not loving how you ignore the calories and macronutrient categories (protein, fats or carbohydrates) which are adding up.“
Count Everything and Be Free. WF!
