It’s funny how I don’t know my natural breathing rhythm. I mean I’ve been breathing all my life, right? And I’ve done my natural breathing thousands of times, if not more than that. I’ve never had to figure that out. But how come I don’t know my natural breathing? Even now, as I write this […]
Countdown
Giving credit where it’s due, I got this from Prince Ea from his Facebook Fan Page. He says that if you’re afraid to do something, you can trick your mind into doing it by doing a countdown from 5 to 1. When you reach 1, you just go for it.Easy peasy lemon squeezy. Easy peasy […]
A Real Battle
Who would’ve thought that we would’ve run out of time? We think we have time left over when the time remaining has already expired. This is why we should keep track of the time as best as we should. This is why we need to grab our heads and push forward on whatever task we […]
Keep Going
Keep going even though the path isn’t clear. Keep going even if you’re really tired. Keep going even if things aren’t making any sense. The key is to keep going. Until you’ve broken through.
Ill and Will
Yes, I’m feeling under the weather. It got pretty bad yesterday. When I got back home, I was sweating profusely and my body demanded that I lay down and be unconscious. I complied. In the morning, I was nutty enough to go swimming. And for a couple of hours in the morning I felt better. […]
Colds and Paths
So the sore throat had blown up into a cold. I’m lying down. And getting ready to be counted out. I reflect on the day I had. It was a hot day. I had a long walk after work and thought about the morning, and the classes I taught. I also took the chance to […]
Uncertainty
We don’t know what will happen tomorrow. We can plan as much as we please to the minute. We think we have it all figured out. But be prepared to throw it all out. It’s not our fault that our plans didn’t work out. The fact is life will throw whatever it pleases. It doesn’t […]
Let Thoughts be
Tens of thousands of thoughts in 24 hours. One of the articles says that 70% is bad. I would think the thoughts that run in my mind have a great impact on how I behave. They make me who I am. As I have about 15 minutes until Tuesday, whatever the number of thoughts I […]
Being Grateful
It’s important to give thanks, every day. And I’ll say the little things you’re thankful for is a big deal. Being thankful is a choice. Today going to church, I thought and prayed about where I am now with my life. I felt grateful for what I got, with my loved ones, my work, my […]
All Work and Some Reward
If I learned anything about doing any sort work, there needs to be some sort of carrot when a portion is done. So I have Da Boy studying for his final exams over the weekend. In the beginning, it was hard. In hindsight, it was to be expected. Da Boy usually had a slow start […]
