Dare to be Bold

I would like to pursue furthering my Purse business.
Obstacles: Time, distractions.

The plan:


"Today, let’s take a step away from rational thought and dare to be bold. What’s one thing you’ve always wanted to accomplish but have been afraid to pursue? Write it down. Also write down the obstacles in your way of reaching your goal. Finally, write down a tangible plan to overcome each obstacle.
The only thing left is to, you know, actually go make it happen. What are you waiting for?"

One Strong Belief

Well this is a hard one.  One belief?  I would have to say that I believe that one should not mess with mother nature.  In that if I were to have a heart attack, I do not want to have extraordinary measures taken to save my life.  When it is over, its over.  Same goes for cancer, etc..  Let it run its course, keep me comfortable while it is happening, and be done with it.
What inspires this belief?  Well, it is my opinion that the human race is getting weaker as a whole because we keep people alive whom nature has marked for natural elimination.  Harsh? yes.  Same goes for animals.
How do I actively live it?  I try my best to keep my self healthy and relatively fit.


It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinion; it is easy in solitude to live after our own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude. - Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance
The world is powered by passionate people, powerful ideas, and fearless action. What’s one strong belief you possess that isn’t shared by your closest friends or family? What inspires this belief, and what have you done to actively live it?

How would you describe today using only one sentence?

Today is the opportunity I have been waiting for.

Your genuine action will explain itself, and will explain your other genuine actions. Your conformity explains nothing. The force of character is cumulative. – Ralph Waldo Emerson, Self-Reliance
If ‘the voyage of the best ship is a zigzag line of a hundred tracks,’ then it is more genuine to be present today than to recount yesterdays. How would you describe today using only one sentence? Tell today’s sentence to one other person. Repeat each day.

Mom's heart valve

Not much sleep last night. Mom goes in today for a Cardiac Catheterization to check the condition of the arteries. Mixed emotions right now.  It would be so easy to descend down into the depths and be sullen.  I choose not to.  I choose to be bright and optimistic today and for the rest of the week.
