Being organized means being intentional

Eagle Scout celebration cake
There are always many dessert choices. Plan accordingly while you’re getting your entree.

 

Being organized means being intentional.

Whenever you are at a buffet, make only one trip. Be intentional about your choices.

A second trip for food is not for sustanence, it’s for pleasure or to comfort pain or anxiety.

Being vibrantly organized means constantly making better choices than you used to – choices the herd no longer makes.

What is our responsibility?

Nursing home
Yesterday, the 89-year old was concerned about getting back on time or risking poor treatment.

 

What is our responsibility?

Do we confront – honestly, openly, and lovingly – glaring situations or is it better to look the other way? Maybe avoiding confrontation is actually the high road.

Maybe it isn’t.

Where is the line for codependence and should we cross it (at any cost)?

Perhaps the only way to discover uncharted territory is to go there.

What are our limits?

Steve Jobs talks with his hands. A lot. i find solace in this.

 

What are our limits?

And how can we be certain?

We can be certain of one thing – nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Simple math.

The key is organizing our auto-response

Just a friendly reminder that i experience the full range of emotions that everyone else feels. My writing can easily be interpreted as being without the pain and frustration brought on by living in a challenging world.

The key is organizing our auto-response to daily challenges, pressures, and disappointments.

There is only one response to the inevitable, this.
