Reusing this pic. Writing things down these days is simply snapping a pic.

Yesterday three general, stereotypical places in life surfaced:

Victim
Ordinary
Vibrancy

For optimum results, get and stay vibrant in all five of life’s big choices.

Anything less than all five will create pain points in the other four. While being vibrant in four out of five is very good (a solid B-grade at 80%), the Magic doesn’t happen until an A+ grade at 100% is achieved and maintained.

Life is hard no matter your grade.

The “hard” varies for each person, each grade.

If it’s gonna be hard, my logic is pick the good hard.

This website is about our HOME. This is the fifth of five daily, differently-themed blog posts about: (1) mind, (2) body, (3) spirit, (4) work, (5) home. To return to Mid Life Celebration, the site about MIND, click here.

Just watch

7-second video: Avid photographer, videographer – many people are. Also a news reporter? Any of us, potentially. Avid exerciser too? Any of us, potentially. Doing pull-ups and such when i noticed this. Bonus insight: Nature is beautiful and brutal.

Don’t listen.

Watch.

The story never lies.

What you do thunders so loudly we can’t hear what you say.

Totally get that anyone’s behaviors may seem to contradict what comes out of their mouth (or onto the page). It is the same with me, with you, with everyone.

Strive diligently to be remarkably kind.

Compromise is rare (and a blessing)

text thread screen shot — Sometimes while biking or running, i simply text myself to remember the idea. It will disappear if it doesn’t get “written down”. And sometimes, mysteriously, the text duplicates itself at will.

Compromise is rare (and a blessing).

Compromise is literally the only thing that deescalates differences of opinion.

In a world craving an apology, no one wants to go first.

Go first.

Another harsh reality, some people will never go first. Ever.

Pray for them.

Regret is a late bloomer

You get one life.

You spend your whole life living it.

Please know…

Regret is a late bloomer.

Do not waste your life being disorganized.

Achieve personal vibrancy simply by being organized enough to be able to prioritize your priorities.

Clarity is power.

Big time regret patiently waits until you feel like you can never change.

The truth about home

Running your home life as if Disney was running your home life means setting every bar to the highest level. Nothing is optional. Not if you want personal vibrancy.

The truth about home organization.

Prioritizing your priorities is you number one priority.

Living by your prioritized priorities is your second priority.

This is the truth about home organization.

You do not have to be neat and tidy.

But why would you not be?

The truth about neat and tidy versus disorganized?

If you don’t intuitively understand the difference, nothing i say will help you.
