Prayers for motivation

The jog home….arrived at 7:34am. At 8am, we planned to leave for the Orlando/Sanford International Airport.

Prayers for motivation.

There are at least a million reasons why whatever is good and important – that we should do or need to do – can wait another day.

Don’t let it wait.

Do it now.

There are exceptions. The devil’s goal is to have you rationalize that nearly everything you can think of isn’t an exception – let it wait. Relax. Tomorrow is a new day. Do it then.

PS. Son, waiting until tomorrow is always a great idea when you are angry.

Lift like a Laker

Lift like a Laker is a program for school students. Parents are also welcome. Pretty cool opportunity.

But alas, too many competing priorities.

We will spend Palm Sunday (in three days) up north on a college campus.

And so it goes.

On a side note, we have 32 after-school hugs left, including this afternoon’s – if the podcasting is done by 4pm.

What i write about is painful to read

Experimenting with blinds up, 24 hours a day. What if we lived without curtains, blinds, and shutters?

i write about stuff people don’t like to talk about, not even to themselves. And the first person in line to read it is me.

Excuses, regrets.

Why?

Because of the second chances that become available to anyone (especially me) who seriously asks tough questions (like, “Why?”) and vigorously pursues their answers.

Smile at the Ying and Yang

Smile at the Ying and Yang.

The missed opportunity is how to use quitting in a constructive way.

What if instead of quitting the new year’s resolution to get healthy, we instead quit what we were doing the first three weeks and begin a new approach?

Changing (quitting) the activity may be just the thing needed to keep making progress (not quiting).

Where we tend to look for greatness

At the gym yesterday. Sent this to Jake at Hike734. Jake loves birds.

Context. Drove to gym yesterday instead of walked. Had a 9am eye exam.

We tend to look for greatness…

In others.

What if we looked for it in ourselves?

Ps. Comparison steals our joy.
