Each day is a clean slate

WPS track
yesterday morning before sunrise.

 

Each day is a clean slate.

But our mornings are so busy that we don’t take time to get centered before we get going.

There are a few freaks who believe that balance must be the daily habit.

Never in a million years right?

Self-fulling prophecy got it’s name because it’s true.

But we can retrain our habits by rethinking our priorities.

For example, if you are not going to exercise today, it’s because you have intentionally thought through that today is a rest day.

Of course, there are rare, emergency circumstances that warrant not exercising on days that are not designated for rest. We should allow for about one every month or so.

Was yesterday extraordinary?

The best parts of yesterday have nothing to do with the two really nice things summarized in these two photos from yesterday:

 

LinkedIn messaging
My note was two days ago, his reply was yesterday.

 

Thank you email
Yesterday, a thank you email.

 

Was yesterday extraordinary?

If yes, congratulations.

If not, how about the day before?

If no, what about the day before that?

If no, when was the last time you had two extraordinary days in a row?

This is why midlife celebration is so important. Our goal is to never again have a day that is less than extraordinary.

You may say i’m a dreamer…pretty sure i’m not the only one…

The truest test of our attitude is when we are being tested

Foot x-ray
Last month’s x-ray showed a healthy foot, in spite of ankle pain.

 

The truest test of our attitude is when we are being tested.

It’s doubtful i’ll be able to compete tomorrow at Nationals. Something i’ve been hoping to do for two years.

This could be a huge disappointment.

But it’s not.

Not because it isn’t, but because i refuse to let it be.
