Had to reread this and then it made perfect sense.
We are all self-made, but only the successful will admit it. – Earl Nightingale

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
Being fit and at a vibrant body weight, plus living life to the fullest – what if that was us?
Personal leadership is the most important, mission critical strategy for thriving in life versus surviving. Self-discipline is the key tactic in accomplishing this strategy.
There is nothing more important than being crystal clear on what your goal is.
For instance, my goal is to be an example for our son, rather than a warning. An example on how to age in a healthy, balanced way, and live with peace and contentment in spite of life’s never-ending hardships challenges.
Then be unwavering in your commitment in building, and lifetime maintenance of, a foundation based on:
Impeccable honesty
Behaving admirably
Personal responsibility
Self-control
We either work hard to be self-disciplined or we work hard recovering from poor self-discipline.

About 15 minutes into yesterday’s 10-mile Disney run.
So many people, so much surviving…if each of us conducted a simple survey for a couple days would it reveal a life-changing epiphany?
Spend the next few days (two to four at the most) casually asking the people you come across this question:
Would you say you are closer to thriving each day or surviving each day?
Then ask yourself the same question.
And decide if you are good to go with your answer.

Disney’s Beach Club Resort lobby yesterday before sunrise.
The simplest notion is that we either thrive or survive. Two simple choices that are challenging no matter which we decide to focus on. (click to tweet that)
Choosing not to do the hard work to thrive, means we have defaulted to the hard work of survival.
What we accept be default becomes our standard.
PS. It’s hard either way.
