I have an idea and move forward, but some way down the path that idea fades and I am in no-man’s land without a compass, a canteen of water, without a flashlight, no maps or guidance of any sort. The only plausible success is pushing forward. Whatever the new day brings, whatever attitudes and emotions, whatever my current perspective offers, the only real success can be pushing forward despite it all. For if I do not, I’ll find eventually that as I look back at my life, it’s littered with unfinished paths. That the ideas of greatness I once had are discarded when resistance is met, I will be ashamed and sink back into apathy. Let the knowledge that I set myself upon this path be my motivation and guiding light. I will find myself in this exact predicament many times throughout life and know that the difference between who I really am and that former apathetic mass, is that I am not swayed by mere emotions and base desires. I am a juggernaut of triumph. I know unique hardship and have the fortitude to beat back the most severe obstacle I’ll ever encounter, myself. • Win today • The first image is a still from a movie I was in called American History X, those are fake movie tattoos…
Forever is daunting. I’ve come to terms with my path being a forever path, and even still, when I try and visualize it as such, it’s often too formidable to comprehend. I accept forever, but I work for today. Today is all I’ve got. I can win today. And when today is too much, I will win right now, this moment. Happy Monday to you. Win today

The house is on fire. If I don’t acknowledge it, it will go out. The house is on fire. So many shows to binge, so little time. The house is on fire. Quiet contemplation, the nature of fire: a chemical chain reaction involving rapid oxidation or burning of fuel. The house is on fire. Is it an electrical, gas, or maybe even chemical fire? The house is on fire. Have I paid my most recent insurance bills, and did I ever even add fire to the bundle? The house is on fire. But I cannot feel the fire’s warmth. The house is on fire. I think it’s on fire, is fire objectively real? Can I be certain? The house is on fire. I will just sit here quietly watching TV. The house is on fire. I will pull up amazon on my phone and order a fire extinguisher. The house is on fire. The house is on fire. The house is on FIRE! Tomorrow seems like a better day to put the fire out. The house is on fire. Despite all the claims and fancy marketing, no one knows your fire exactly. If any one-size-fits-all approach worked, the fires would all be out. Yet the fires rage. Keep looking for an exit, one exists. Just because someone found their way out of a burning building, doesn’t mean that way out will work for you. But your way exists, keep looking, you can find it. The house is on fire. Win today. • 📸 via @angela_featherstone

Getting the old gang back together this weekend @megaconorlando.
Can you imagine the complexity of relearning something you’ve been doing your entire life, from scratch? It’s virtually impossible not to rely on unconscious systems that have been built up and reinforced. The pull to merely alter one small component is so strong, that I spent decades spinning my wheels on diets because they produced weight loss. Turns out, losing weight wasn’t a problem for me in the short term. Long term I always resorted to the mean, obesity, and the systems in place to support that. “If a total rebuild is required, stop trying to solve this problem with a narrow, short term solution…” is what I finally learned. “Is it worth it?” Was my daily greeting to the world. It was, has been, and will always be worth it. I will win today…

I was in a fog until about halfway through my workout this morning. When I came out of it, I was glad to be there, but up to that point it had been a real struggle. I hope your Monday is successful. Despite the unexpected battle, I will win today. • 📸 by @scottbloom1111

Who are you, to you?
The path is there for you. It will be unique, just as you are unique. The path is there for you to discover and reveal. It will be unlike all other paths, because this one is yours alone. Despite obstacles and treacheries, it’s there, and surmountable. Find your path, win today.

Me and some like minded friends went on a walk yesterday. We walked for the simple joy of walking. Can’t wait to see you all next time.
