Pearly gates? No.

Delta gate? Yes.

What seemed like an eternity, August 1st, is finally here. And not only that, but I’m here too. Delta gate 71.

The Delta flight is overbooked. First to Atlanta, then Paris, and then Helsinki.

Ever ask yourself, “When will I finally get to where I’m going”?

I do.

I hoped it’s overbooked there too.

I’ll be patient with the overcrowding and the wait, as long as when I get to the gate I hear, “Well done, my good and faithful servant. We have a seat for you, right this way, please”.

Ten years of effort in exchange for less than one minute of “glory”.

Would you invest a decade in exchange for one minute?

Would you invest an entire lifetime for one minute?

I would. I have. I am.

When the proverbial judgement day arrives for me, there will be less than one minute to hear, or not hear, “Well done my good and faithful servant”.

The great mysteries of life are called mysteries for a very specific reason. We can not fathom them. They will always remain a mystery.

Our challenge, I believe, is to find a way to embrace life and be a good and decent person. It’s called Peace.

I just have to keep telling myself why I’m doing this.

Why?

To leave a trail for our son.

The hardest thing for me to do isn’t to get started.

Then what?

The hardest thing is to stay motivated.

Stay motivated?

Yes.

For what?

To stay motivated to not quit.

That’s one of the secrets to great results.

For example, when do we ever reach a place where we can stop praying? Or stop exercising? Or stop learning? Or stop saving money?

We can not quit, can we? Well, I guess we can quit, but then we shouldn’t complain about where our spirit, our body, our mind, or our money goes.
