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 ...

Ropes!

Image
When I was growing up as a young man a metaphor  I was taught by my tribal  leaders was about a Kite.  When you fly a Kite the string is what gives the Kite its stability.  The stings connected to the ground is what keeps the Kite in flight and not whisked away in the wind. Keep a tight hold to the ground through the string.   The Kite is you, the Sting is the principles taught. This guiding principles are what will keep you grounded and safe. I asked the question "What if there is a storm?  A Kite bound to the ground by string will  that not tear apart the Kite?".  The string becomes a burden.    Like the elephant and the string. A false thought.   A chain.  What If I am not a Kite?  But an Eagle?  Then the string becomes a rope that ties me down.  Causing me  harm.  Preventing me from soaring high above the storm. It Keeps me from soaring high in flight and reaching my f...

Aloha "The Breath of Life"

Image
 To Breathe or Not to Breathe, That Is The Question Aloha! Stand up and say it real loud ALOHA! Does that not feel really good!  ALOHA! What  is Aloha?  It is Hawaiian for Hello and Good-by.  When I lived in Hawaii and with my travels back to the Islands I have come to understand it has a much deeper meaning.  Far more significant.  It has a depth.  It is Unconditional Love.  It is Peace.  It is Spiritual.   It is a paradigm for Life.  It is a way of life.  A Life Force! Understanding the root of the word  Aloha, Ha in Hawaiian means "breath"  or in other words "to Breathe Life".  The very first thing you will learn in the Unbeatable mind training is how to Breathe.  Breathe you say?  Yes, Breathe! But I have been breathing  my whole life.  Yep! you are so right!  But what you may not know there is a right and wrong way to breathe.  The breath i...

It's My Tribe! Don't Mess With My Tribe!

Image
My tribe: We are health minded physically active people. We pursue excellence in all things but understand there is no such thing as perfection.  We are visionary dreamers and leaders. We are calm of spirit and nonjudgmental. Giving unselfishly. We understand the value of friendship and family. We seek to better ourselves and make the world a better place.  We serve ourselves as well as others. We work from a place from within our selves moving outward.  Being the change in the world we want to see.   We love life and are forgiving of our selves and others.  We back away, disengage or avoid negative energy. We pursue financial stability. We seek monetary reward to strengthen our foundations. The goal is to make a more simple life but yet live a high quality of life.   Less dependent on others and work toward self reliance. We are not necessarily focused on material but on lifestyle.  Quality over quantity.  ...

Simplify "A Hero's Journey"

Image
" I went to Medical school to help myself and others live the best and healthiest lives possible.  The day I started Medical School was the day I started  down the path of dis-Health or Disease (Diss Ease) .  So what is a Hero's Journey?  Why not just become "Enlightened"?  Practice Mindfulness? Or, Better yet, go to therapy the rest of your life doing mental masturbation on how bad your childhood was.  The poor me I am  not responsible feel good approach?  Blow smoke up your ass and blame  the world for all your of problems "this really is not my fault".  My question to myself was and still is "how do I get better?".  How do I become the very best version of myself?  How do I not only become the very best version of me on the inside but outside.  Physically Mentally and Spiritual self.  The BEST son, brother, nephew, grandson, friend, husband, father, student, doctor and Human can I become?...
