Two really basic questions today:
- What are you?
- Who are you?
Which leads us to more questions.
How do you know?
How do you define yourself?
How do others define you?
Is there a difference?
Does it even matter?
Are You Aware?

Dude, You’re in Incredible Shape!
Vince said, “Dude, you’re in incredible shape”.
Shirtless, I stopped by the front office after my training run early this morning, sweating profusely from the tropical Florida humidity. I wanted to check on something my wife was working on for next year.
The office manager and I were talking when Vince made his comment.
Vince knows the manager. In fact, Vince helps out at our Sanibel Island Resort and is an absolute bright ray of friendly sunshine, enthusiasm and hospitality.
“One push up a day”, I casually commented back.
“One push up a day”?, Vince relied, surprised.
“Yep”.
Vince knows I’m heading to Helsinki, Finland in three weeks to represent the United States at the Master’s World Championships. The manager does not, unless Vince tells him.
It’s amazing how we can look at someone and wonder what they do, or don’t do, to lead a healthy life.
Same thing with a person’s attitude, eh?
We can tell, just by a person’s demeanor, whether they have passion or not. Of course, there are some exceptions to this, but not many.
I hope I can stay passionate about four things: Mind, Body, Spirit, and Money.
Self-Control, Surrender, Service. Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
