1. Snack I’m loving… I love potato chips. I avoid them because they are not good for you. Boulder Canyon is a brand that I do eat. They have no artificial junk in them, they do not use bad seed oils, and there are only three ingredients… potatoes, avocado oil, and sea salt. They taste…
We are inundated with information these days. And much of the information we are getting is online, and often tied to roundabout advertising and marketing. What looks like an informative article turns out to be selling a gizmo, gadget, lotion, potion, or pill. Whether you want to lose weight, heal from a health condition, look…
1. Inspiring video I re-watched this week… If there’s one thing I love to see, it’s someone doing something extraordinary… something they were told they could not do. I remind myself regularly that just because something has not been done, or just because everyone says you can’t do something, doesn’t mean that it can’t be…
This year’s Super Bowl had its customary hype around the commercials. There were some great ones, some that were so-so, and some that were just plain bad. A few were, in my opinion, a bit misleading. Pfizer put out an ad with a kid leaving a hospital dancing and shadowboxing with boxing gloves and shoes…
1. Something of interest to me… I’ve always been intrigued with human history. Our ancestors endured incredible adversity. For us to not only survive, but thrive, through history as a species is amazing. One period of time, the 1800s, has captured my attention lately. We’ve watched three shows that help capture what things were like…
Zig Ziglar used to say, “Your spouse didn’t leave you because you didn’t make the bed that day.” Poor results, bad outcomes, and failures seldom occur because of a single thing. One bad decision, one incident, or one mistake can shift our trajectory toward catastrophe, but usually isn’t the sole cause of that catastrophe. I…
1. Misogi completed… This year’s misogi was for me to do a cold plunge in the lake behind my house EVERY DAY in January. Well… today is January 31st, and I am DONE! I knew I was going to be out of town today (January 31st), so to make it official I did TWO cold…
I catch myself highlighting my weaknesses, shortcomings, and failures. I think most of us do that. For some reason, it is so easy to pick out and dwell on what we can’t do, what we don’t have, and what we have not accomplished. I always wonder if there is a reason for certain tendencies or…
1. App I am using… I recently downloaded, and have been using daily, the BobbyApproved app. Bobby Parrish is someone I follow. He’s been posting information on what foods are good and which are bad since 2012. He has more than 15 million followers. He created an app that allows you to simply scan a…
It was very cold, the wind was blowing in my face, and the sun was starting to set, as I sat in a tree stand bowhunting. I watched as about a half a dozen squirrels scurried back and forth, up and down trees, and fended off their territory, as they prepared for the coming winter.…
