Exaggeration makes the exaggerator look like a phony. Would you trust a phony?

Sperry Day 2, work

16-second video: That’s quite a vertical trail.

Ask and you shall receive.

Bible

The more wisdom i get, it’s easy to see that it’s okay to ask for anything you want from life, from yourself, and from others.

You may not get what you want.

You may be led to ask differently, based on ‘failures’.

You may get more than or better than you ask for.

Always know that you can never be bitter about not getting what you don’t ask for. That’s on you.

Hike up – Sperry, work

7-second video: Relaxed here for 2.5 hours to blog and tweak backpack items (from travel day configuration to 3-night overnight hiking config).
Pixar elemental toy characters on a trail head
Super late start at 11:00 AM…normally start up around 6am. All good though because of being on “island time”. 
T-shirt hanging on a tree branch
Super sweaty. After five miles, hung shirt to dry. Set both daypacks in sun for same reason.
Mountain Chalet room
Nice room including a balcony. Didn’t arrive until about 4:00 PM. The manager, Brian, was worried about me. Normally arrive by 9:00 AM.

Be clear on why you’re here and ensure all your decisions drive to that goal.

It just dawned on me that when people ask me for advice, i should have a better, scalable answer. Todays quote is the rough draft for that answer.

Two or too different?

family by mountain pass sign
Early evening hike start. Someone offered to take our photo. i usually decline all offers. Such a stock photo.
family by mountain pass sign
Same sign, same people, different photographer. Change what you see and what you see changes.

Things take longer and are harder than we believe at every important journey’s beginning.

You hand over your camera and they take the photo they think you want.

Then you get your camera back and take the photo you really want.

Two different photos entirely.

Too different?
