2020 Rethink, Reprioritize, Recommit:

Rethinking, for sure.

Reprioritizing, doesn’t seem so.

Recommitting, with purging “stuff”, absolutely.

The progress is slow and sometimes medium, and it always remains invigorating.

Why?

i can see the end.

Letting go

Tony Cozza remodeling allows me (us) to trust someone to do things the way we would do them, or even better than we ever could. Evening shot of back porch paint prep.

Part of my next is letting go of all the things i currently do that someone else can do.

Hire someone for each task is an option.

Another option is to stop doing the task.

It’s a combination of both.

Preparing your family for your (permanent) absence is a gift. You are required to have an uncommon attitude about your paradigm shift.

Being prepared for death doesn’t need to be avoided.

Are you prepared for your death?

Do you know others who have their paperwork of life all set for when that day comes? And not only paperwork, but the emotional reassurance and closure that comes from leaving no doubt where your love stands.

It’s not like avoiding the preparation will delay death and extend your life. Or am i missing something?

Three things being overwhelmed can teach us

Barnes and Noble Bookshelves of Management books
No shortage of advice on managing things

 

Three things being overwhelmed can teach us:

  1. expect the unexpected (at any moment, and especially when we can least afford it)
  2. keep things simple so when they get complicated, they are less complicated
  3. maybe the best we can hope for is to be barely on the other (good) side of insanity

Building a strong foundation by midlife probably didn’t happen for most of us. Building now is totally within our realm now because we know we need it and no one else will do it for us.

Decide to fail but not quit

Happy May 2012. How’d that happen? How’s your year progressing? Please tell me you’re still on fire about it. If so, great. If not, pause, and consider…

We’re hoping to succeed; we’re okay with failure. We just don’t want to land in between. – David Chang
