Hello friends ...
My days are consumed with 8 objectives. Some will never be "accomplished" they will just morph, expand and evolve.

Each will take character: discipline, determination, commitment, focus and much more on a day by day basis.

This will lead to more isolation, which is not always healthy. bur necessary. This is a silent quest but I will post here. There is NO external motivation, (although I do borrow from the best sometimes) NO accountability partner, but also NO nay-sayers, NO excuses, NO skeptics and NO mediocrity.

Some might say a few of these objectives are impossible .... GOOD. I've done the impossible before and I am doing it again.

Stay tuned!

Hello friends

I am venturing into some long over due manifesting in to my experience. I am using the wisdom and guidance of some of my favorite authors and speakers. I've decided to bring a new role model; David Goggins.

David has many accolades to his credit, many of which I will NEVER attempt. LOL He does speak of two things in particular that I am very interested in. NOT for the first time ... but the time is right for me now.

1) Get out of the "comfort"zone. Humans seek the familiar, which is past experiences and limiting to an unknown future. To be truly unlimited we / I need to seek out the un familiar and get into DIS comfort, mental / emotional pain and become unlimited or SUPER human. The uncomfortable becomes normal and with repeated ex*****on and repetition true freedom exists.

2) Total honesty, awareness and acceptance of "the hand we have been dealt", limiting beliefs, poor habits and aversions. He suggests an accountability partner, friend OR social media for this part of the process.

If you would like to be a digital partner, phone, zoom or otherwise, let me know. I may be relegated to social posts which will make me very vulnerable!!

Comments are welcome. Let's get busy.

Hello friends ...
I am about to get busy on a journey of manifesting some long over due objectives in my experience. SO, my time just became a little more limited.
I am accepting a few more students very conditionally. If interested, consider your needs and objectives, DM me here and we can both determine if this is a good match.
I'm here to offer some wisdom, accountability, support and motivation in a variety of ways. There are many goals, objectives and most importantly RESULTS which await YOU. Let's connect and get started.

Hello friends ... I might be opening myself up for some .... stuff here. I was wondering if anyone has read any of David Goggins' books. I'm looking for a recommendation.
There is a part of me that believes he has destroyed himself for the sake of proving something to himself and maybe others. I'm talking about severe destruction ... hospitalization, months of recovery ... possible permenent damage ...etc.
However, at this time I believe I have to know more.
If you have read one and liked it, and wish to recommend it ... great. THANK YOU! If you have read more than one and wish to recommend a book for me to start with ... also great!
I will purchase tomorrow.
THANK YOU!
GO

Hello friends ...

This is shocking but actually believable. When we have discovered a (poor) habit, compulsion, tendency or "pattern", THAT discovery becomes the END of that cycle. If we then continue that ...cycle, THAT is a choice. Therefore we can choose to stop, OR continue, OR change direction. WOW

True, some cycles are very deep rooted and require a lot of effort to overcome.

The question becomes: Why do I need this "pattern", how does it serve me, what wouldn't life look like without the "tendency". The answers might tell the story and provide the motivation.

Hello friends ...

I do make a point of planning each week and each day. There are many benefits to this as outlined in the Franklyn - Covey system, then one I use.

1) get the tasks out of my head to avoid mind clutter and possibly forgetting something of value or time importance.
2) check marks and tasks completed give an emotional sense of accomplishment and success ... even then little things.
3) little things are the building blocks to big things which are accounted for in the F-C system. This is part of goals, purpose and general direction.

I enjoy this and I have done this for a long time. The other day I realized occasionally: CONFESSION ALERT I've been PLANNING to live my life instead of living it! THIS IS IT FOLKS ... HAVE FUN!

Hello Friends ...

Personal story time…

For many years, I carried a grudge against and had a memory of someone who hurt me deeply. This deep trauma is like the deep root of a w**d.

The frequent memory weighed heavy on me and kept me from moving forward in other areas of life. For example the trauma kept my confidence moderate to low.

One day it just came to me; "let go of the anger" and forgive them—not for their sake, but for mine.

I know it might be hard to believe, but since then, I’ve felt lighter, happier, and more at peace.

Forgiveness truly is freeing. Holding on to anger is painful.

What do YOU think?

Hello Friends …

I heard a story recently about someone who had a terminal illness and was given a limited amount of time to live … by his expert Doctors. Of course, this is challenging for anyone to hear, including immediate family and friends.

This eventually inspired a BUCKET LIST by the patient. Again, not a fun thought … or is it?

Then, without being morbid or unreasonably relating to this, I thought “what if I were given the same diagnosis”? Well friends, I’m OK, but if I was given this prognosis, I might not be doing or thinking or feeling what I am now! TIME TO GET BUSY!

Let's make the most of the time we have! What are we waiting for?!

Hello friends ...
Safety:?

During my walk this morning I was thinking about ###. This is the reasoning, judging, analytical mind contemplating a FUTURE event. I usually remind myself to get back to the present moment BC my walks are precious and full of miracles ... but here goes.

This time I realized that future event was designed to make me "FEEL SAFE". The thought was more about a past emotion and a predictable future. Both totally not present and kind of unreasonable.

When I accept the present moment AS IT IS, the present moment would ACTUALLY be safe, so I decided to not execute the contingency i was a just considering.

I realize ... I am always safe in the present moment!

This piece of wisdom has completely changed my life.

Here it goes:

GENUINE FREEDOM comes from allowing others the freedom not to like you, not to agree with you, not to be on your side or your “team”.

When you let go of the need for everyone’s approval, you set yourself free.

You become unapologetically yourself and extremely authentic.

Because….

Your value and your opinion of YOU is not defined by what others think of you but by what YOU think of YOU.

So, be kind to yourself, embrace your true self, and you’ll be amazed by how quickly you’ll attract people who truly resonate with YOU.

Hello friends ... GOAL BUDDY: I've talked and written frequently about the value of setting goals. Achievable and manageable goals within a reasonable time is valuable for achievement and success tracking. Crazy "blue sky" are not only creative but also possible! This is one of the best methods I've found, https://goalbuddy.io/goal-setting/ . One of the many methods presented for setting and achievement is a "goal buddy". A friend to go through this process with and have a degree of accountability. This is my most challenging point. I'm sure there is some resistance on my part ... but ...???
Comments are welcome!

Hello friends ... Joe Dispenza
Someone I have studied occasionally for a few years. Joe has spent many years researching and putting into practice the blend of metaphysics and neurological, bio-chemical actions and reactions in humans. We have been trained and limited by primary care givers, relatives, friends, teachers, culture, religion, government, and so on, YET some humans have transcended these limits to accomplish extraordinary things. What some would call super human.
Get out of the box, recognize and release your limits, fly with the eagles, swim with the dolphins. Pursue your passions and let me know how it turns out. I'll keep you appraised of my journey! Have fun!

Hello friends ...
“My mother always used to say: The older you get, the better you get, unless you’re a banana.” Let's choose to be something other than a banana! I'm convinced that aging and our certain final demise is largely due to lack of purpose, as opposed to the deterioration of the body.
