Prioritized priorities to the rescue

Two loaded down 18-speed Trek touring bicycles from 1983 Honeymoon.

Married 1983.

Honeymooned for 2.5 weeks in the Puget Sound and Vancouver Island, via bicycle trekking, a year later in 1984.

Reasons.

Mostly time and money reasons.

The possibility to speak on Vancouver Island this October is alluring.

And yet, after doing the ‘math’, the possibility isn’t close to adding up.

Perhaps i write more about it tomorrow. We’ll see.

Reprise: Random photo day, home

Family — Halfway through High School Senior year.

High school is on my mind today as a milestone High School reunion, in Allentown, is approaching in less than one month.

Cheryl and her cousins Michael, Maryann, and Matthew graduated from Allentown’s Dieruff High School.

Random photo day, home

Infant flipping the middle finger to photographer — As funny as it is sickening, no?

Random photo.

The source is some public place.

Can’t recall where or when.

What i do remember is feeling that the person who decided to put it in public is brave, crazy, and probably fun.

Habits and ambitions, home

Disney Institute wisdom — Habits create our life.

Best habit?

Focus and discipline combo.

Focus on the basics.
Discipline yourself to never take your eye off the ball (basics).

Over-focus on the same things you used to under-focus on or ignore.

Do the basics brilliantly.

The trap to be busy, home

The Store Is Now The Living Room — What was once a one-room corner grocery store was long ago converted into the living room. My first visit was in 1979. i’ve only known it as the living room. Cheryl’s Mom was born in this house and lived here until she moved to Senior Living at age 91.

Gotta do more, be more, get more.

More what?

Do, be, and get what makes your life whole.

Be careful with the trap of more.

More is rarely enough.

This lesson takes decades, at the earliest, to learn.

Be careful.

Pay attention.

Have fun.

Get and stay vibrant.

Then find a million ways to stay motivated to live with prioritized priorities.
