What all of us want out of life is to live it uninhibited. To be set free from our fear is the ultimate achievement.
Uninhibited
Category: Self Control (Impossible?)
Focus, discipline, mastery
Geek, Jock, Monk, King
How much time do you spend on your back up plan?
Is your future dream your backup plan? So like, when you retire, then are you planning to get cracking on the next stage of your life?
Too late!
Much too late.
As I was sharing the Mid Life Celebration vision with my banker two days ago, it simply came out of my mouth:
“People think balance is either/or, when actually, it’s all four. Too much focus in this one makes you a geek, too much here makes you a jock, here, a monk, and here, a king.”
Pause and Reflect?
“It is no simple matter to pause in the midst of one’s maturity, when life is full of function, to examine what are the principles which control that functioning.” — Pearl S. Buck (1892-1973)
We reap what we sow.
Blinding flash of the obvious, eh?
Few Words At Midlife
“Aspire to inspire, before you expire.” — unknown
Before we know it, our time will be through. No second chances. No do overs.
If tomorrow never comes, will you be ok with that?
Skip Your Colonoscopy
This Everyday Health article summarizes how we should think and act when we begin to think about a midlife colonoscopy, and whether or not to delay it.
Makes us uncomfortable to think about someone sticking a small camera-tube up our rear end. Doesn’t it?
Last year, like always, the annual physical was completed the first week of January. Dr. Weinberger wrote the appropriate prescriptions for a mid life adult, and off I went.
It’s embarrassing to say, but I never got the colonoscopy last year. Where did the time go? How could I let this happen. At 50, we are supposed to get a routine colonoscopy, right?
And here we are in March already and I still haven’t had the annual physical. It’s next week.
You know what last year feels like right now? Gambling.
