The gift of turning 17

Night time swimming in Orlando
August 11th. Earlier in the day we walked to Bryant University in Rhode Island.

 

Turning 17 today is a huge honor.

Most 17 year-olds (especially me in 1976) have no idea what a gift it is to see your 17th birthday.

At 17, much of what we have in our life is assumed.

A roof over our heads, free school, paved roads, plenty of drinkable water, access to medical treatment whenever necessary.

Can you imagine living in a part of the world where all this would feel like Heaven?

The lessons we learn and the opportunities we create are our responsibility.

Agree or disagree?

Why?

Humans love the short term mental gain

Humans love the short term mental gain.

An easy win is like a drug.

Stimulating.

Know what humans think of the long, hard climb to the proverbial top of the mountain?

Do you understand the key mental blueprints for living with a lifelong positive mental attitude?

Ideas are worthless without the organizational wherewithal

Clouds, light, and attitude affect what and how we see things.

Truth be told, a writer’s retreat opens the flood gates for creative ideas.

The down side is this can be overwhelming.

Why?

Ideas are worthless without the organizational wherewithal to implement them.

Make sense?
