Sorry for panicking

Screenshot of an email — This is what panic looks like in the morning in “jeff-land”.

Fingers crossed.

Remember when?

Two adults sitting in a home office — Margaret and me. Wearing a USATF t-shirt. Margaret lived 94 years. So this photo is from 2017 or earlier. This may have been the last year i was able to run freely.

The reality of my excitement to return to Glacier after Summer 2023’s medical emergencies is different than i thought it would be.

Excited? Certainly.

But, actually, no more than any other Summer.

Why?

Not sure.

Perhaps because i like to under-sell and over-deliver. Especially to myself.

If Summer 2024 is to be super special (because of 2023’s abrupt end), then it will be.

Not putting pressure on myself to expect it to be.

And truth be told, that’s the exciting part.

Oasis of quiet, at work

hiker in the mountains — Looking back at Pollock Mountain and the Continental Divide’s Eastern (left side) cliff edge. Not sure if Steve or Stacy snapped this pic.

Good and very good aren’t good enough.

If excellence is achievable, why wouldn’t you achieve it?

Ps. Excellence is always achievable.

The key is proper motivation. You’re in charge of that as your CMO, Chief Motivation Officer.

Work couch potato

Disney pixar toy figurines in mountains — Pixar’s Elemental Characters timestamp 2023 in GNP.

hikers in the mountains — Group pic on top of Pollock. My second time. Both Pollock summits have been with Steve and Stacy. The first time, it was so windy that Stacy stayed maybe 100′ from top to avoid the risk of being blown off. True story. Steve and i never stood upright the first time. We stayed five minutes tops because of the wind-chill factor.

It’s lonely at the top.

To be a rock, a steady and sure-footed traveler through life’s high’s and low’s, you have to walk the talk.

The past week there have been hallucinations that look like doubt – the doubt that is human nature. The doubt that comes from inexperience. The doubt that comes from low self-confidence.

Like regret, doubt sucks.

Today’s blog writing is helping me coach myself.

Theory is worthless without committed, consistent action.

Common sense, common practice.

That’s how you slay the un-slayable.

Looks good on paper.

Brilliant lighting comes and goes

unique mountain ridge formation — Google says Bishops Cap is 9,127′.

Summiting Bishops Cap in 2023 is the most significant hiking accomplishment for me.
dad

Bishops Cap is an even greater accomplishment than Reynolds.

Had several years of reconnaissance hikes for Reynolds.

Never even attempted Bishops Cap reconnaissance.

Thought about it.

But never backed the thoughts (dreams) with action.
