HQ prayerful

Mamma bear has her priorities straight. You know how you can tell? She lives in the wild and is raising a family of three cubs – by herself.

HQ prayerful.

Organize with your feet.

Organize ’til you bleed.

Organize like you mean it.

Do you start every brand new day praying for wisdom and guidance in keeping your priorities profoundly simple, and simply profound?

This is a great place to start if you want to replace theory with action.

Intentionally negative

When you change what you see, what you see changes.

New runners are programmed to believe that the longer you run, the slower your speed becomes.

Why?

Because the body gets tired.

Like when you do pull-ups, the more you do, the harder each successive pull-up becomes.

Or don’t .think .differently

As a lifelong sprinter, for me to run 10 miles without stopping is a miracle.

To run eight consecutive miles with negative splits is astonishing.

To make mile eight as a sub-seven-minute mile is remarkable.

To do this in my late 50’s, as a sprinter, is extraordinary.

Perfect example of growth mindset.

Note: well aware there is a few second difference for mile 5 and 6. I’m not a machine who can lock into an exact pace. The spirit and intention was negative splits. Being off by a few actual seconds doesn’t diminish the intentionality to run eight consecutive negative mile-splits.

Note: Closed mindset would be a person arguing that miles 5 and 6 technically aren’t negative. Technically no. Psychologically yes.

Free to hide?

hidden Mickey
We think hidden Mickeys involve a derivative of three circles. Why? Because we have a fixed mindset. Photo of a hidden Mickey. Did you find the hidden Mickey? Do you know one is there?

Free to hide?

Like the hidden Mickey above, some things are hidden in plain sight.

You can hide your dreams, your hopes, your joy, your courage.

You can, but why would you?

The travesty isn’t hiding them from others.
