Mental presence

mountain ridge at sunset
The mental presence to turn away from the sunset to see what was happening behind me during the sunset’s main event.

Mental presence…

Being present will help you set your growth-mindset to auto-pilot.

It the rare instance when closed-mindset breaks through your armor, your auto-pilot will quickly mentally course-correct.

Take everything we own

August, 1984. Clothes. Personal effects. Kitchen stuff. No furniture. No appliances. We were leaving a Washington State University Residence Hall. Residence Hall Director, Cheryl, pictured here. It was a fully furnished and stocked apartment.

Take everything we own, to Orlando, Florida.

That’s what we paid for. Because that’s what we needed.

We didn’t have much, yet our growth-mindset whispered, “You have it all.”

Five big goodbyes

Five big goodbyes:

  1. Disney
  2. Blogging
  3. Glacier
  4. Work
  5. Family

Perhaps those five goodbyes are serendipitously chronological?

The paradoxical key

Right in front of me, 15-feet up.
Dead center in this photo is the content from the previous photo. Taken last night from a sitting area.

The paradoxical key to a peaceful life is to slow down.

Slow down to speed up.

How to slow down has been a decades-long priority for me.

Speed isn’t the issue.

Too much to do is.

So?

Don’t have too much to do.

It could be worse

Christmas tree in the living room
December 24, 2024.

Christmas is glorious for some, painful for some, and a non-event for some.

It’s helpful to not only remember this at Christmas but every day of the year.

A well established growth mindset is a glorious gift you give yourself.
