Simple moments make my heart smile.
As Leslie and I were smack dab in the middle of it all I found these segmented moments if you will…were much easier for me to view early on Saturday mornings…the calm before the storm you might say. The following lyrics I wrote sums it up pretty well…from my point of view:
Another word for successful may be personal.
Here’s a healthy dose of reality…so hold your nose and take your medicine. Life is not nor has never been fair…and that’s not going to change…so GET OVER IT!
My advice is this: Accept the rules and learn how to play the game. It’s amazing how wonderful the game is once you decide to play. A smidgen of desire is all you need to get rolling.
Smarter Goals Are Sustainable…How & Why
Taking the time to develop smarter goals not only greatly enhances the odds for long term success, but also builds confidence along the way. For instance…a goal to change your life doesn’t necessarily mean you have to do a 180…maybe just a fine tune is all that’s needed. Here are some techniques which have worked for me.
“Dad’s Cheeseburgers”…the best in the world!
As we sit elbow to elbow around the table I relish the moment it provides as nothing quite brings out the love…the stories…the surprises…the laughs…like Dad’s cheeseburgers cooked out on the grill. They’re the best in the world you know…at least our world.
Stop fearing you’ll never quit smoking.
The sad truth is…as fear is allowed to fester out of control, many simply choose to ignore its appetite while it consumes the joy from their lives. Without much of a fight, they begin to accept its affects as their new reality. They become a slave to their fear.
Life changes…but…“it ain’t over till it’s over”
I will never let life’s circumstances stop me in my tracks…and, by the way…that is a conscious decision. You have to shed the old to enjoy and bring on the new…for one will not arrive without the other’s dismissal. So …as life changes…I say “Bring It On!”
Why finding the “present moment” is the key to instantly rejuvenating our minds
Listen…I’m still trying to figure all this out myself though at times I feel the more I learn…the less I know. As for now…here’s the way I see it. Live life to the fullest with every ounce of your being…but understand, there’s a time to stop and recharge…in order not to burn out.
Happy 36th anniversary baby! I bet you didn’t see this coming.
All I want is to share your present moment.
Time stands still, when it’s just you and me.
Doesn’t matter where we are when we’re together.
Cause in your moment babe is where I want to be.
Blame Fear and Worry for making you unhappy.
Worry is a malignant figment of our imaginations. Worry torments us as it replays our fears in our minds over, and over, and over again….until we actually experience both physically and mentally the terrible events imagined without anything actually happening in reality. What could be worse?
Raising our kids is more than what meets the eye…or is it?
We spend the first 18 years of our lives trying to escape the clutches of control our parents have over us only to find ourselves, a few short years later, on the other side of the fence raising our kids with an entirely different point of view. You might say…it’s payback time.
