Went on my first hike today since my surgeries. Got up at 4am and met some fellow hikers at 5:15. We hiked North Mountain and Shaw Butte. It was amazing, and a GREAT workout. I so very much needed this. This Saturday I will be hiking at Fossil Springs Trail in Pine, AZ. This is just a gorgrous spot so I'll take a bunch of pics. Oh yeah, I'm swimming there too!

So people....


Give yourself a dream

Give yourself a good, solid, clear and meaningful reason to do whatever you?re doing. Give yourself a real, authentic dream.

Give yourself a dream that has meaning, and that compels you forward. Keep yourself solidly connected to that dream.

Let your dream flow naturally and honestly from the vision you have for how life can be. Make your dream so big and exciting that you cannot fail to put the best of yourself into it.

Give yourself a dream, and give it to all the world as well. Choose a dream that enables you to lift others higher as you lift yourself higher and do what you truly love.

Let go of the excuses, the complaints, the anger, envy and frustration. Put the miraculous power of your thoughts, words and actions into the good and positive things that truly matter.

At this time of new beginnings, choose to live with more substance and meaning than ever before. Give yourself a dream, and give all of life the unique benefit of the very best you can be.

Making a difference

The world can always benefit from more achievement. And you are just the person to make that achievement happen.

Life is all about making a difference. And you are in a position right now to make a positive difference in life.

This day, this situation is filled with many challenges and problems. And behind each challenge, behind each problem, are valuable opportunities.

The surest and most positive way forward is through meaningful achievement. Make a difference that truly means something to you, and you?ll lift up all of life.

It?s not selfish or greedy to achieve your most deeply felt desires. What?s selfish is to do nothing, to accept less than you could be, when you could be making a difference.

Make the commitment, make the effort, make a difference, and achieve. Lift your own life higher, and pull all of life along with you.

Opening of the London games today. Awesome. JUST AWESOME!!!


Unexpected

Something unexpected will happen today, and tomorrow, and every day. You can worry about what it might be, and fight against it when it comes, or you can accept it and deal with it in a positive way.

You cannot escape from life?s uncertainty, and you really wouldn?t want to. Although that uncertainty can bring pain, it can also bring great joy and powerful new positive possibilities.

What you can do is choose to grow stronger with each twist and turn. What you can do is learn, adapt, create, innovate and successfully adjust to life as it changes from day to day.

Uncertainty can sometimes be very disruptive and inconvenient and challenging. Fortunately, you have the skills to meet those challenges, and to move your life forward no matter what may come.

Though you can?t know for sure what will happen in the future, you can know for sure that there?s always a way to make the best of it. There?s always a way to remain true to your most treasured values, and to live your life according to your highest vision.

Life is not always predictable, but that?s no reason to fret. Because in that unpredictability, you?ll always find valuable and meaningful new positive opportunities.

Techster, your attempt at posting a pic was an epic fail. Sorry to be the one to tell you.

My hike was canceled this morning due to weather on the Mogollon Rim. Bad stuff. I was looking forward to Fossil Springs and may try again next weekend.



Now stop gawking and get busy people...


Let today be that day

This is a day filled with possibilities. This is a day when you can get results.
Though conditions may not be perfect, still they are sufficient for you to move forward. Though circumstances may not he ideal, within those circumstances you can most certainly make progress.

What is it that you would like to achieve? What is it that you wish to change, improve upon, create, express or experience?

If you ever want it to happen, now is when you must do something about it. If it is your desire to see it come about, it is your responsibility to make the necessary effort.

Nothing ever gets accomplished someday by somebody. If it is to happen, it must be done on a specific day by a specific person.

Let today be that day. And let yourself be that person.

For our friend Ronnie...


Leave the stress behind

Much of what is stressful to you is what you?ve decided is stressful. What if you decided differently?

Feeling stressed in certain situations, or with certain tasks, or with certain people, is not a foregone conclusion. Rather, it?s a way you choose to respond.

Sure, many things in life will challenge you greatly. Yet instead of letting those challenges get to you and make you stressful, you can choose a more powerful, effective response.

Instead of seeing yourself as fighting against the challenges, you can see yourself as thriving on them, and even enjoying them. Even when people and situations are extremely difficult, you can find great fulfillment in calmly working through them.

You can let others be stressed and angry and frustrated. All the while, you can choose to be peaceful and productive.

Life?s difficulties don?t have to bring you down, because you have what it takes to lovingly and purposefully deal with them. Choose to respond with a positive perspective, and leave the stress behind.

I had a horrible experience this morning. I decided to sleep in rather than hike Pinnacle Peak this morning with some fellow hikers. Thought I take the bike out for some road work instead after a nice breakfast with the newspaper. I was sitting by the pool watching some bunnies that frequent my yard. Out of nowhere, a harris hawk swooped down and picked one of them off. I had just let my little dogs into the house. Very very upsetting!

Anyway moving toward the positive with something appropriate...
