Questioning Assumptions: Driving Growth 

My mind is both my most powerful asset and my biggest liability. I’m both propelled forward and held back. Thus I constantly question my mind, my assumptions, my drive. I seek out opportunities to grow.

Today’s Motivation: The Best Time To Plant A Tree 


I find myself doubting my past, second guessing my choices. This quote, this proverb  reminds me of the pointlessness of that behavior. That I need to keep my eyes in the now, on the future. And so I get up and move forward. 

I Chose To Care

Though many don’t care 

And they pride themselves on that

I shall choose caring


I don’t mind the nerdly/Pollyanna label: I care. And I have no intention to change that. 

Another day begins

Another day begins

Accept my limitations

Find my strengths: excel! 

I will resist fear 

For I long to seek out joy

And find potential

I’ve let fear run my life far too long. Fear of failure, of rejection. This paralyzes, destroying opportunity. This I resist. 

Yeah, I often make things too complex 


I often get wound up over the details in life. Seeking out the details can go to far and I simply add complexity. 

When I hurt my arm, instead of looking for the best medicine cocktail, I need to do slap some ice in it. The sooner the better. 

So much potential

Fear steps in and hamstrings us 

Robs us of our dreams 

A Monday Morning Haiku 

This new day begins

Filled with opportunity

As the daylight grows 

A Monday Motivational Haiku

Now I am awake
Listening to the birds sing
Preparing to DO!

Time to move, to grow, act and move. Go and DO something you can brag about.
