I Just Didn’t Wanna

Ambition is the path to success. Persistence is the vehicle you arrive in. – Bill Bradley

I really didn’t feel like writing this post.

I’m behind in writing this week; writing each post the night before.

Usually I write a week’s posts on Saturday, by Sunday evening at the latest.

Not this week.

But I’m not complaining.

Yes, I have a big new “thing” taking up a bunch of my time, and I’m adjusting, but I’m not complaining.

This overwhlem is a good thing. A welcome thing.

I just wanted to share that I really, really, really didn’t want to write this.

But here I am, at 7:39 PM, writing. (After a workout which I really didn’t feel like doing . . . .)

But, here we are. Me writing, and you, later, reading.

Whatever “it” is, you can do it too.

    Set your course by the stars, not by the lights of every passing ship. – Omar Bradley I’m pretty sure that by stars Mr. Bradley means values and by passing ship lights he is referring to the vagaries of popular opinion and culture. If so, he’s right. What do you value? Are your values reflected…

    I was listening to (watching really; it’s available on YouTube) Michael Hyatt‘s podcast on his new book Living Forward (really excited to be meeting him at the VIP meet-and-greet at the book launch*) and something struck me. Many people think, and sometimes talk about, how hard it is to change. And it is really, really…
