Couple weeks ago accepted Jody Maberry’s invitation to join him and Lee Cockerell in Dan Cockerell’s mastermind group. The event was at noon today. Jody gave 20 minutes which would be followed by Q&A. Dan said to take whatever was needed.
Talked big-picture about balance (personal vibrancy) for 12 mins and opened it up for Q&A.
Key points:
Balance has five categories: mind, body, spirit, work, home
Time is a flawed balance-metric
Discerned that energy, not time, is the supreme metric
Balance and personal vibrancy are interchangeable

What we like or dislike in others is a reflection of what others like or dislike about us.
Racism, to me, feels like an extension of a larger issue, discrimination. i am not smart enough to speak expertly, only as a novice. A novice with 60+ years of observation experience.
Discrimination, in my opinion and from my six decades of experience, is rooted in strongly held stereotypes.
Ironically, stereotypes are nondiscriminatory.
There are many “categories” ripe for creating stereotypes.
Age, religion, ethnicity, sex, sexual preference, height, weight, hair color, hair style, hair length, the car (or truck) you drive (or public transportation you use), job experience, socio-economics, clothes, marriage status, kids or no kids, zip code, political affiliation, accents, glasses or no glasses, education level, hobbies, active or inactive lifestyle, and a litany of endless other categories.
The older you get, stereotypically, the more you’ve seen, learned, and experienced. You learn there are now things that matter that you didn’t think mattered before. You learn there are things that don’t matter that you once thought were written in stone (for example, marriage is between a man and woman).
Here’s to a future that’s not only better than now, but much better than now.
A future with no negative stereotypes, no racism, no hate. A future filled with positive stereotypes, unconditional acceptance, never-ending love.

Three common sense requests. These are displayed because some people are not capable of thinking this way without a reminder. If they were, no sign is necessary.
Sometimes a brief video makes a “photo” location come alive.
Most Americans are entertained, medicated, and distracted.
We are hoodwinked. Tricked. Lied to.
By whom?
A long list of perpetrators.
At the list’s top is the person running your life.
Ouch. Of course ouch.
Fix this.
Please.
