A Moment of Reflection
Here are some things I'm reflecting on as I hit pause, take a breath, shower '22 with gratitude and gracefully pedal into 2023.
Weekend Musings
Through his free, daily inspirational texts, Michael asked folks to share, what bit of wisdom would they like to share with others? Read some of the responses. The responses give Michael faith in humanity.
What's Your #28?
We are a board game and puzzle family - especially around the holidays. While grabbing Ticket to Ride, Michael walked down memory with Chutes and Ladders, a game he played with his girls when they were younger.
Everyone wanted to land on #28. When you do, it's a dopamine fast-pass to #84 and you're a few spins away from winning.
Crossing Bridges
Whether physical or emotional, we all have bridges to cross; the only way to get better is to keep crossing them. It's like reps in the gym - we make progress with practice. We get better at hard things by doing hard things.
Mindfulness is for Men
Studies show that meditation can help solve some of the predominately male "rocks in the backpack" problems like throwing back one too many, heart disease, maladaptive stress management, and frayed relationships.
