Theory is an average person’s wish

Dragonfly on pond reed
Plenty of dragonflies at every pond, including human-made ponds.
15-second video: Wasn’t sure i was even zoomed in on the dragonfly. But kept it rolling. Turns out i had it in frame. Also turns out there were two dragonflies. Love that the camera helps me see what my natural eyesight misses.
37-second video: Watching a dragonfly breathe is a first for me. Thank you iPhone 15 Pro Max. Tomorrow, will go back to observe it with my own eyesight, sans a zoom lens.
15-second video: Such a tiny place on a tiny planet.

Theory is an average person’s wish. Action is an unaverage person’s reality.

Wealth is a state of mind.

Note: Study wealth all you want, if you continually study, you’ll eventually learn money can’t buy you things that money can’t buy. Sounds obvious, right. Because it is.

That said, i’ve lived without money and with money. i like what the resource of money offers that the lack of money resources can’t.

Live and learn. Be flexible.

Dr Callaway said he’d normally like to see someone like me back in a month.

However, given the two retina surgeries, he wants to see back me in a week.

Note: Dr Callaway was a surprise. Didn’t even know he was on the Magruder team.

Colorful art on a outdoor patio wall
The Glacier art arrived last week and Cheryl hung it yesterday while i slept off the Valium.

Plan for the worst, hope for the best. Don’t plan for the best until it happens.

Cautiously optimistic for a remarkable eye-sight return.

It has already started to feel like a huge lottery win.

But rather than wondering, “What am i gonna do with all this money?”

The pressing question is, “What will i do with all this excellent eye sight?”

Bottomline?

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

dad

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!

Change, change, change

Remember, your life has been impacted by change. Start harnessing change’s positive power.

dad

The more things change, the more things stay the same.

The only constant is change.
