Dare to be who you want to be. And know your growth, and motivation, is a moving target.

Bottomline, your motivation needs to be greater than your goal.
If your goal is greater than your motivation, you’ll never finish.
If your motivation is greater than your goal, you will not stop until you achieve your goal.
Bottomline?
Totally!

The only constant is change.

Try not to be more dramatic than necessary to make your point.

The question now, “What do you want to do with your remaining days?”
Easy answer, after four days seriously thinking about a 16th year.
The easy answer?
Wait for it.
Drum roll………
You ready?
It’s simple.
A blinding flash of the obvious.
And i know you respect what i’m about to say.
The question now…
Why in God’s name would you stop?

Also yesterday. Rhonda, who sold us some Glacier art in Whitefish Montana last week, went the extra inch with her handwritten note on the sales receipt. She didn’t have to, nor did we expect it. That’s what makes it Magic.
Had no idea in 1983-84 that it would be two decades before we became parents. Finally becoming parents was also Magic.
Magic is when something unexpectedly surprising and delightful happens. i knew the day to stop blogging might come, but never knew if, or when.

i knew the day would come, but never knew when.
Now i know.
The decision happened fast.
Definitely surprising.
Definitely unexpected.
Too early to tell if it’s delightful.
That’s the fun part of life, the adventure that the future offers.
Make no mistake, since 2009 the thought of stopping surfaced occasionally. Sometimes years between the thoughts. Sometimes weeks.
And most recently, three days ago, two days ago, yesterday, and now today.

i have to travel. i get to teach. Ensure your get-to-do is greater than your have-to-do.
Desperate people want miracles. Seek peace. Peace is the miracle.
dad
Architect your life so that miracles are not required, not hoped for, and not expected.
