Accountability Mirror

Image
The Accountability Mirror.  What is it?  Goggins describes it like this:  You get up go to the mirror.  Who is looking back?   Are you seeing the person you expected?  Can you see your future Kick Ass self somewhere in the mirror?  Ask yourself "What is it going to take to get there?  What do you have to do".  Are you willing to do what it takes?  Are you willing to SUFFER?  Are you willing to get after it?  Are your willing to sacrifice? Who are You?  Are you seeing the person reflect back at you the person you think you are?  Or do you have work to do.  Are you Accountable?  Is what you do in private reflecting what you do and how you act in public? This is the starting line to your future!  Now is the time!  No longer are you looking at the wake of your life!  But setting the course from the front!  You see your future! It is Awesome! Now is the time!  The time to...

Defining World Class

Image
What does it mean to be world class.  I was having this discussion with a colleague at work after reading Robin Sharma's work. World-class embodies inner mastery and outward excellence.  World Class radiates  positive energy ,  calm , and   confidence , moving through life with a deep sense of  purpose  and  presence . Their self-awareness fuels  their actions aligning  with a clear, authentic   "why".  World Class are the" 1% of the 1% . They do not dwell in anger.  Their position is No Worries !  World Class cultivates a mindset of resilience, gratitude, and growth.  They meet   fear with courage.  Feeding the courage Wolf and starving the the Fear Wolf.  They seek out the hard and difficult.  World Class is  of the mindset of viewing every obstacle as a chance to evolve.   The harder the better.  Adversity = Opportunity  to achieve Greatnes...

Day 21

Image
  A good friend and mentor "Life Coach" walked up to  me at the end of January and said "Man you look like Shit!".  He then gave me a big hug and said "Welcome Home Brother!"  I was on Maui for a conference and COVID was looking like we had it  controlled and hope insight.  He sat me down in the sand and for 45 minuted I closed my eyes and we meditated and did breathe work.   I did not realize how bad  the pandemic and dealing with the mental beating "We" as health care worker were/had taken.  I am broken.  Never could I have imagined that patients and the general public would turn on us and treat us with such disrespect and disregard.  I can only relate it to what my friends experienced that  came home from service in Vietnam.  The health care worker has now become the next Vietnam Vet in the public eye. At the end of our meditation we went surfing!  I felt great.  New energy.  I realized right then and the...

A Letter to my Grand Kids

Image
  Namaste Sacred Soul, Take a Deep Breath.  Let it out.  The Breath is a reminder that somewhere in the world today someone is taking their last. Someday that will be you.   Place your hand on your heart.  Feel it beating? That energy?  That energy keeps you alive!  That energy is source, universal(God's) energy.  It is everywhere. It connects you to me!  You see, source resides within both of us.  Making us one. One Universe (one song, Uni-verse).   That same source comes from the Universe (God) comes through me, to your Mom/Dad, to you! Therefore, I am always with you.  We are one!   The same source that pumps your heart, pumps mine.   Knowing this, go forward today.  Make today epic!  No Fear! YOU GOT THIS!

Facing Fear. Does your water run deep?

Image
The Redirection of Fear  "Still water runs deep" Mark Divine   Because of the COVID-19 (CV19) pandemic we have all been under significant stress and fear of the unknown.  As the issues have become more of a reality, it has been interesting how each of us as individuals have handled it.  From complete disregard to total panic, to hoarding behaviors.  Some run and hide.  Others hit it head on looking for solutions. No fear!  I got this!  What is the defining difference of management of fear? There are two motivating human emotions:  Fear and Love.  If you can  understand  fear and love, you  can  predict behavior.  Fear eventually burns out. One gives up, gives in and quits.  True unattached unconditional Love never burns out.  As a tidal wave moves through the oceans deeper waters the surface is rarely disturbed.  As the wave gets closer to the shallow, the bigger the dis...

Healthy Eats!

Image
Healthy Cooking Made Easy! One of the fun ways I have found to healthy eating is with the use of a Bamboo Steamer.  Easy to use and inexpensive.  It is a true KISS technique in cooking! First assemble your ingredients.  I like fresh Veggies.  Slice and dice!  Get all the prep work done.  Be creative in placement in the Bamboo steamer. If using proteins like chicken or fish I recommend a small plate in the steamer to rest the chicken or  fish on.  When using shrimp,  I like using parchment paper.  Wrap the shrimp by folding the paper up tight  and place in the Bamboo steamer.  You want to protect the Steamer from the oils of the fish and chicken.   Once the Bamboo Steamer is full, put it back together.  Get you water boiling in a pot.  Once the water is boiling, place the Bamboo steamer on top and steam  for 8 to 10 minutes.  Remove from heat.  Add salt pepper and a squirt of...

Peace

Image
Peace We all have an energy we bring into our daily life.  It is a presence.  The space you take up.  Whether you know it or not you send out a personal energy into the world around you.  This energy is felt by thoses around you.    It can be through body language.  How you stand.  Look at someone.  Walk into a room.  Where you choose to stand or sit in the room.  How you carry yourself.  The words you choose.  The volume and tone of your voice. .  How you listen.  How you respond.  Or not respond. The spoken and the unspoken language sends a message into the world.  Create an internal environment to bring Peace into the world.  Be a presence of calm.  Warmth.  Love.  Total Self Confidence. Create a positive internal environment to reflect outward. Seek a deep spiritual connection to your surroundings. Invite all of you se...

The Coin

Image
  For Christmas in 2023 I gave a Decision coin to those I care deeply about.  I continue to give the coins and over the past year I have given out over 100.   What is a Decision coin you may ask? It is a coin used to make decisions of course.  When you find yourself in a position you need to make a choice between 2 things.  Assign one choice Heads and one Tails.  Flip the coin.  Where it lands is the one you go with it.   Do not look back! This started for me when I was on a trip the to the Big Island with close friends and my son Scott.  We found ourselves multiple times trying to make a choice on what to do, where to go or what to eat.  He would pull out this coin and say Head or Tails!  Flip it.  Off we could go! Scott would later explain he got the idea from a book about a gentleman that use he would use a set of Decision Dice or coin to make all of his life decisions.  The book was the story of his life and ...
