Grateful for intense adversity

Grateful for intense adversity.

The timing is always bad, but the opportunity is always golden.

Especially in hindsight.

Trust that what feels awful, and impossible, is a rare gift.

Your two choices are simple.

Embrace and maximize the opportunity.

Resist and loose the transformational opportunity of lifetime.

Let the first thing be

Let the first thing be, upon awakening, thank you.

So cliche.

Say thank you to start your day.

Up to you.

Proud of you for the way you honor such a simple, initial, daily habit and ritual.

Being a noticer is a double-edged sword

Unusual flower next to the sidewalk, about the size of a quarter.

 

Being a noticer is a blessing and a curse.

Blessing because you discover so much.

Curse because you discover so much.

No in between

child-like wonder
Child-like wonder is a real thing.

 

Seems as though you bless every dinner before eating or you don’t.

No in between.

What will the youngsters learn from either habit?

Should it be this easy and is it showing off?

Montessori World Middle School classroom
Thankful everyday for this middle school classroom and teacher.

 

Can you easily make a decent daily list of blessings without too much thought?

Yesterday i was thankful for:

  1. Mother-In-Law’s successful heart ablation surgery and dismissal from the hospital.
  2. Having a teen who is maturing nicely.
  3. Having an old car that always starts.
  4. Having really nice running shoes.
  5. Having the motivation to exercise regularly.
  6. Living amongst the world’s best theme parks.
  7. Having a world-class Orlando Gold’s Gym nearby.
  8. Having healthcare insurance to cover most of my physical therapy.
  9. Being a small business entrepreneur with big dreams.
  10. Having 30 years of Disney experience from which to build the business.
  11. Having a Twistee Treat Ice Cream place two blocks from school.
  12. Etc, etc.

Writing five daily, free, differently themed blogs for 2.1k+ consecutive days is one of the most ridiculously impossible goals anyone could ever imagine.

Thankful for that too. Everyday.
