1. Something cool I saw last weekend… While pulling into a large shopping plaza last weekend I heard, and then saw, two gentlemen playing music in an open corner in the parking lot. The one was playing the violin, the other playing a keyboard. There was a large speaker projecting the music loud enough that…
1. Wording I’m working on this week… I have read about it before (and you likely have also), but this week I read it again. We know words are VERY powerful. Simply using the words “I get to” instead of “I have to” can have a profound effect on your attitude, enthusiasm, and outcomes. After…
1. Documentary I watched… I recently watched the documentary Fantastic Fungi. It is so good! (Thanks for the recommendation, Jack!) I love learning more about things I think I already know and understand. The medicinal potential of mushrooms is incredible. They are extremely powerful, amazingly safe, cannot be patented, and treatments utilizing mushrooms (for difficult…
1. Biggest news this week… Well… Lana and I got married last week! We kept it small and simple, with just us and our six children. We did it on the beach in Costa Rica and packed in some adventure around it. The trip was incredible, the weather was perfect, and the wedding was amazing.…
1. Moving video I watched… In this time of immense uncertainty, I can’t help but think of the potential we have as a country. Coming off Memorial Day, thinking of all the men and women who have given their lives for the freedoms we have (and shamefully take for granted), I hope we can stand…
1. Posts I’ve been following… I love new designs, breakthroughs, and seeing new inventions and ideas. I find some really new and cool stuff on this site… Absolutely fascinating! Here is one of my favorites… 2. A reality check I had this week… I was sent this pic/post this week (thanks, Sue M.!) with this…
1. Post I loved this week… TownHall in Cleveland is one of my favorite restaurants. They do as good with social media as anyone I’ve seen. Their posts on Instagram are great. I loved this one that was posted this week… 2. Great shirt I saw last week… This shirt caught my attention and got…
1. A habit I am working on… I’ve written about the importance of getting sunlight first thing in the morning to reset your circadian cycle to ensure better sleep. Well, after listening to neuroscientist, Andrew Huberman, again this week, I am committing to doing this more often. He said it’s the MOST important thing he…
1. Nature scene I saw this morning… Our home gym is on the second floor, with the entire back wall being windows which allows us to look out over the lake that we live on. It definitely makes working out easier. And it’s like watching a National Geographic special every day… the wildlife behavior and…
1. Book I just finished (and am strongly recommending)… I just finished Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals, by Oliver Burkeman. (Click here for the Amazon link.) I have been very critical of my use of time, and it turns out, the approach and philosophy I have been taking has been futile. I have…
