If it’s not on the test…

aging and staying active
Taking care of the temple that houses everything keeping you alive…your body. If you think honing healthy habits isn’t important in your youth, good luck with it as you age. Be organized or be overwhelmed.

 

Helping a 17-year old navigate and learn life-skills not taught in school.

What a privilege.

What a challenge.

What an opportunity for a 17-year old.

Likely a teen, if they can’t see it (the incalculable value), they aren’t interested nor motivated to learn.

If it’s not on the test…

Well, it is on the test.

But the test won’t come for years, even decades from today.

Deep voice 48 hours ago.

Slight sore throat 24 hours ago.

Fifteen hours ago, all tests came back negative.

Grateful to have a walk-in clinic (Disney’s Center for Living Well) open 365 days a year.

Happy Monday.

Minutes from an hour bike ride to the gym, an hour at the gym, and an hour bike home.

Be well.

Note: being decently organized helps you fit in important choices in your busy life.

Brain drain enemy #1?

Learning concept
Email from a college enrollment department, trying to sell their school to high school prospects.

 

Learning concept
Exactly.

 

We spend our lives stuck in insidious and invisible loops, continuously asking, “Should I?”

Should i do this thing?

Should i do that thing?

Should i stop doing this thing or that thing?

It’s this endless series of half-baked ideas that rob our brain energy and attitude.

The antidote?

Pick one.

What?

When you ask, answer definitely.

Yes.

Or.

No.

And move on.

Our “Should I questions” pile up and bury our ability to breath in positivity.

Why?

Because we are overwhelmed with the things we feel are holding us back from becoming better (at anything and everything).

Saying yes or no – versus never answering – is a gateway to mental clarity.

Easy to see how saying no, or yes, can free your mind from the brain drain enemy.

You have to learn to dance with them

iCloud Photo Library issue
Today i need to call Apple to find out why this happened (randomly) yesterday. There should be no uploading, and, where did 10k more photos come from? And…my other MacBook did not have this happen.

 

Life will throw you frustrating challenges when you least expect them.

It will also throw you glorious blessings you never saw coming.

Learn to accept them both.

Learn to dance with them too.

Patience and personal organization will serve you throughout your life – if you strengthen your patience and personal organization.

It seems obvious, but if you don’t strengthen them…

What kind of desk do you have?

notes app
Yesterday while riding to the gym. i dictated this note on my phone – it started because the morning was cloudy and one idea morphed into the next.

 

What kind of desk do you have?

Desk is metaphorical for home.

Backstory…

Today’s posts started so simply yesterday.

While breathing deeply from the hour-long peddling, and with an elevated heart rate (120-130 beats/minute), life’s messages became easier to hear (exercise always facilitates this).

Yet i must say, the depth of today’s simple sentences is hard to put into words – and i ran out of time.

Sorry.

Feel free to use your imagination.

Cruise through the five again and see for yourself.
