How Are Your Kids Doing?

Teenage years have always been chaotic.

AI tells us that the word chaotic implies a state of complete disorder…

…Confusion or unpredictability.

Have I gone too far in describing your kids?

I hope so.

We have raised a lot of kids and I know the teens are tough for them and for us.

And there are many 30 year olds today who exhibit the same tendencies.

Regardless of their ages, they still need you to be who and what you are!

And they want to see that you have and live by the same values you’ve always lived by.

They need some predictability in their lives and that isYOU!

If not today, when?

Everything You Ever Wanted Is On The Other Side Of Fear!

(George Addair)

Fear is real!

There are many forms.

I would like to discuss whatever fear is preventing you from realising your goal or dream.

I lived with fear for many years of racing to Mackinac Island aboard a racing yacht

I reached the age of 63 before I did it.

I will always be grateful to the skipper of the boat who gave me the opportunity.

The lesson I learned is you should not live your life with regrets.

It is always better to try and fail than to never try at all.

Nobel Prize Winner Says He Will Power The Whole World!

Shuji Nakamura already transformed the world once. His invention of blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) changed everything about our daily lives.

Computers, phones, big screens, traffic lights and electronic billboards light up because of his invention.

Nakamura earned the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2014, along with two other Japanese scientists, Isamu Akasaki and Hiroshi Amano, for their contributions to his LED breakthrough.

His goal: To create a power plant that uses a new kind of high-pulse laser for nuclear fusion, producing an “endless” supply of efficient, clean energy.

With nuclear fusion, there is no uranium involved and no chance for a meltdown.

Some experts have hailed his invention as important as Thomas Edison’s incandescent light bulb.

“…A More Perfect Union?”

Well, the first 250 years are behind us.

Obviously, many improvements must be made in the way we treat fellow Americans.

What will I do to make our peoples a more perfect union?

What will YOU do to make our peoples a more perfect union?

Regardless of your age or political leanings, this is THE MOMENT to decide!

I think most of us are inclined to look at yesterday and think, “There were a lot of great parades.”

No, it was more than that.

It was a very important juncture and we must treat it as such.

This is a chance for a NEW BEGINNING!

We must begin again to do whatever we can to make this “A More Perfect Union!”

To Succeed In Life You Need 3 Things: A Wish Bone, A Back Bone And And A Funny Bone!

(Reba McEntire)

I would say she is quite profound.

I wonder what percentage of the world’s population have a wish unfulfilled?

And have given up on it?

Is it really too late because of your advanced age?

If so, perhaps a younger person could help make that wish come true.

Is it really too late because of health issues or financial insufficiency?

If any one of those is holding you back, make a compromise and DO SOMETHING!

If not today, when!

This Year Is Half Over. How Will You Make The 2nd Half Better?

It’s important to take a candid look at your accomplishments.

And the half way mark of the current year is a logical time to take inventory.

On a positive note, which improvement was your best one?

Can you make it even better in the 2nd half of this year?

Which failure was your worst?

How and when will you correct it?

Self management is the prerequisite to self improvement.

Make the 2nd half of this year one of greater results!

If not today, when?
