making change stick
Few people know slow and steady more intimately than Farmers

Four reasons why slow and steady is the only way to make change stick:

  1. Habits, good or bad, are engrained over time
  2. Without tedious repetition of new, old behaviors will seep back to predominance
  3. The only way to become great at change is to work hard – very, very hard
  4. Never get bored with the basics – ever

Yes and no during midlife

WordPress Orlando Meetups
WordPress Orlando Meetups once a month at I.D.E.A.S.

A short list of yes and no observations in midlife:

  1. Yes it’s my birthday today (June 8), no it’s (today’s post date) September 8
  2. Yes I’m very pleased with the past three years of progress… have come a long way
  3. No I’m not as pleased with the progress… thought more would be done by now
  4. Yes things happened as expected, no it didn’t happen nearly as quickly as planned

The past couple weeks have subtly revolved around human desire – finding purpose and meaning in life. Bores the heck out of some, scares the heck out of others, and for people like me, it’s oxygen. Essential.

We can estimate out of 100 people, three will get this. Only 3 will care enough to seek personal transformation. Only 3% have the guts to not go through the motions.

Tomorrow, I’ll share my short list on the meaning of life.

Are you thinking about the calculated risk(s) you want, or need, to take today?

Or have you given up on risks?

Thrive on risks?

Remember the Michelangelo post a few days ago? It would have been so much easier, and quicker, for him to paint the Sistine floor.
