It is that time of year again here in lowa.  The fields are being cleared by the harvest and the deer are out having a buffet running from field to field.

It is very important to stay focused on the road immediately ahead of you and not be distracted by looking ahead to the bright lights of where you are going because a deer could be right in front of you at any time.

The same can be true of as you go about your day.  You can be so anxious to get something accomplished or reach the end point of a proiect that you could miss something right in front of me.

A conversation with someone in need of
encouragement, a chance to help a friend, an opportunity that only you can see. 

Don’t be so focused on what is in the distance that you miss what may be right in front of you.  It is what is the most important.

I’m cheering for you.

Every Day is special.

Every day is an opportunity.

Every day is new.

Every day is unique.

Every day is a gift.

This is not just any day.  This is a day that will never happen again.  The moments you are about to experience will happen only once.

This is a day that needs you.  You don’t know where, you don’t know how, and you don’t know when but you need to be ready for this once in a lifetime day.

This isn’t just any day.  This could be THE day.  Be ready and enjoy it.

I’m cheering for you.

Do you eat leftovers?  Some people do and some people do not.  I eat them.  Some things are just better the second time around.  Chili and meatloaf sandwiches to name a couple. 

While food leftovers can be alright with some foods there is one area where we should not be settling for leftovers.  Our self improvement. 

We are now 53 days until the first day of 2023.  Have you committed to being better at something when January 1, 2023 rolls around?

You may say that you want to be better but what time are you really giving to your own self improvement and development?

Do you give yourself fresh minutes or leftover minutes?  Do you make time at the start of your day or do you just give yourself some leftover time at the end of the day when you are tired and run down from your day? 

You can’t give yourself the best chance of learning and becoming as good as you can be by trying to do it with leftover time.  Every day for 53 days give yourself your best. 

Enjoy your leftover chili but don’t settle for giving yourself the leftover time.

I’m cheering for you.
