The best way to find out is to decide to

Library books Christmas tree
Yesterday afternoon at the High School Learning Commons (library) i dropped off a thank you gift to someone who exceeded my expectations.

 

Being decisive is one of my the most underrated tactics.

Don’t know why it’s not used more often (like daily).

Fear and doubt?

Probably.

Busy schedule?

Probably.

Best way to find out if any of that is true is to decide.

You’ll know soon enough if you still need to fear or doubt.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

What if no one shows up or worse

The Rosen Centre
Two days ago, i’m used to being the first one in the meeting room.

 

What if no one shows up?

Or worse, what if they show up but leave and do nothing different, nothing better?

Metaphorically, it happens for most people attending Church.

No?

From paralyzing to no big deal in one try

Highline trail
It was a major accomplishment.

 

Highline trail
The trail returned to less intimidating.

 

The Highline Trail was no less dangerous yesterday than a few days before, but it was far less intimidating the second time around. This afforded Cheryl the opportunity to appreciate what we (our son and i) did a few days prior. Until you conquer this personally, you have no idea – i literally didn’t know if i’d be able to turn around and go back.

When our Son and i hiked the scary 200 meter portion a few days prior, i didn’t know if i had the ability to turn around and return to the Logan Pass Visitor Center. Without going back over the same 200 meters we had just finished, it’s an 11-mile walk to the nearest road trailhead, with no other options; and no way to let Cheryl know what was happening. It would have been a disaster – that’s how afraid i was.

What is ridiculously easy can also be insanely difficult

Highland Trail hike
So beautiful on the first 400 meters of flat, wide trail.

 

Highland Trail hike
We are about to round a corner and i wasn’t sure if i’d have the courage to continue.

 

Highland Trail hike
It’s a big place, far from any hospital.

 

Highland Trail hike
It’s even scarier in real life.

 

A narrow trail is not a big deal on the ground, but move it up several hundred or a thousand feet and it can potential paralyze you with fear.
