I will not quit

Yeah, there’s five big buckets in life (and in the photo)

 

I will not quit writing five daily, differently-themed blogs about Life’s Big Choices.

Quitting on a conviction does as much damage as not quitting does good.

After a 16-hour day, we are tempted to take short cuts.

Will. Not. Miss. A. Single. Day!

They Know What You’re Thinking

At Least He's Got An Excuse
At Least He's Got An Excuse

“Our opinions become fixed at the point where we stop thinking.” – Ernest Renan

Do you ever change your mind or your opinion about something once you’ve learned new or different information? Or do you form an opinion and then only listen to information that reinforces the belief you already have? When it comes to your mind, is the door shut or is it open? Do you honestly look at ALL the facts, or do you rely on someone else to provide you with information that is intended to get you to share their own view? Perhaps it’s becoming easier to allow someone else to tell us what we think than it is for us to listen to the facts and then decide for ourselves. Maybe talk radio is becoming the intellectual equivalent of getting a meal at the drive thru window. It’s fast, it’s easy and it’s cheap.

I know folks who, no matter what evidence they are presented to the contrary, will not budge from their original stance. There’s something to be said for loyalty, but there is that line between being true to your convictions and just being bullheaded.

“Stubbornness does have its helpful features.  You always know what you are going to be thinking tomorrow.” ~Glen Beaman
