“Never judge things by their appearance. Even carpetbags. I’m sure I never do. A thing of beauty
is a joy forever.”

–Mary Poppins
As we were watching the movie Saturday Night, this quote, merely a quick response in the movie, stuck out to be like Mary Poppins paused on every word. Often you can find success in the strangest of places, or in ordinary things. Sometimes it doesn’t take the extraordinary to do the extraordinary.

“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.”
–William G.T. Shedd (1820-1894), theologian, teacher, pastor
This ties into the whole “get out of your comfort zone to grow” mantras, which is something that I have been trying to do for a while now. Life is adventure and you can’t enjoy it if you aren’t living it!
Happy Father’s Day to all the Fathers out there… God have mercy on us!

This is typed out yesterday, but since The Elder knows how to switch users and then shut the computer down, you can lose things. I am not sure why the draft didn’t save… oh well.

“A marathon is like life with its ups and downs, but once you’ve done it you feel that you can do anything.”
–unknown

Today is the Knoxville marathon and I will be out on the course keeping the racers safe. Running is very important to me and many many things can be compared to running. Although I can’t make you run, it can be life changing…

“First thing every morning before you arise say out loud, ‘I believe,’ three times. “
–Norman Vincent Peale (1898-1993), author, preacher

From the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill orginally published in the late 1930s, the necessity to have the mind believe is critical.

Success Sunday

Remember when I was doing Success Sunday. Mentally, I still do it each Sunday. I find quotes that I like and I should actually set the post up in advance, but then there is the “what if I find a cooler quote that’s even better, I’d want to use that instead” thought.

MCOKay… Success Sunday is not going the way of the Parachute Pants… No Sir. MLATW is breathing life back into this weekly motivational phenomenon. And in all of her geekness wonderful talented way. She has made it even easier to participate with Success Sunday.

Go to her Post about Success Sunday and read all about. You gotta do it. All the cool kids are doing it. And if you don’t roll with cool kids, then all the non-cool kids are doing it too…
