Everyday habits accumulate

Everyday habits accumulate into a lifetime of habits.

What we think, how we move, how we feel (and serve), how we contribute (and why), how we organize (and prioritize) our home life decisions.

We know this because it’s common sense.

The challenge is we generally learn to do things ‘our way’ by default, rather than by design.

Favorite thought? Mind

Bottom of this photo you can see yesterday’s blog title “Haves and wants”. Every other day above that line is pre-loaded with blog post title ideas. And what you see below is what an admin dashboard looks like normally. Actually what is below is not normal. Most don’t plan to blog daily, so they also don’t plan to pre-schedule the admin parts of their unwritten posts.

Pictured here is Lane 8’s admin screen. You can see at the bottom of this photo, yesterday’s post “Haves and wants”. But i have not yet loaded the post title(s) from Mid Life Celebration for today or any other day.

Favorite thought?

Wow, that’s a challenging question.

This thought came almost instantly, after a brief moment of ‘this will be impossible’…

The only limitations i have are those i impose upon myself.

Note: Penned that thought in 1980 while journaling during a week-long Outward Bound outdoor experiential course.

Doing the right thing, mind

Luxury resort
Set the highest standards in the world. Personal vibrancy is for the ones willing to get and stay motivated.

Doing the right thing is challenging. Said another way, doing the right thing is hard. Figure it out.

The right thing to do every day is to intentionally (and i believe, habitually) decide how to face your day.

Choosing your attitude is the only freedom no one can take away.

Can it be challenging?

Of course.

By the way, challenging means the same thing as hard, but it’s steeped in optimism.

Can humans (me, you, others) rise to the daily occasion?

Of course.
