| 0:00.0 | Hi friends. I'm coming to you from my basement right now, walking through my basement, |
| 0:10.0 | walking around my basement. A couple of reasons why I'm doing that. One, my Fitbit goal today, |
| 0:16.0 | as it is every day, is 20,000 steps, so this certainly helps. But even more importantly, I'm feeling grateful, |
| 0:25.0 | incredibly grateful as I walk through our basement. And I'll be telling you why in this week's |
| 0:30.9 | podcast in just a moment. Hi, this is Dave and welcome to Walking is Fitness, a podcast designed to help you transform your life by |
| 0:40.4 | walking more and walking more intentionally. You ever felt regret? That's a bit of a rhetorical |
| 0:48.3 | question. Of course, we've all felt regret. And I don't know too many people who enjoy that feeling. I know I don't. |
| 0:55.1 | Hate it. Hate feeling regret. But this week, we're going to talk about how you can turn |
| 1:00.8 | regret, that feeling of regret, into something much more positive for your health. It actually |
| 1:08.4 | can be transforming. And at the end of this week's podcast, I have a free |

| 1:32.6 | every single time. The basement has a family room, two bedrooms, and a fairly large back area |
| 1:40.5 | that's great for storage. There was a time when the family room was nice and the basement |
| 1:46.0 | felt spacious. But that was a long time ago. Family of eight can do a number on a house and I struggled |
| 1:52.5 | with the motivation to maintain it all. In the last decade, oh so, if I did any work on the basement, |
| 1:59.6 | it was always left unfinished once I reached good enough. |
| 2:03.6 | The basement became an easy place to store things like unused furniture, tools, and house renovation material that might be needed later. |
| 2:12.5 | It also became a repository for a significant amount of family heirlooms after my grandfather died, |
| 2:19.1 | and none of it, none of it, was organized. We're currently in the home stretch of getting our |
| 2:25.9 | house ready to sell. The most overwhelming part of this process, as you can guess, is the basement. |
| 2:32.6 | It had to be decluttered and all the deferred maintenance tackled, |
