We may be unique entities, but the situations and circumstances we find ourselves in are always in existence in the universe. We're just changing lanes without thinking and getting caught in a flow of energy we don't like. While we ride out the traffic in that lane, how about we ask ourselves, if I had to, could I stay here and learn something I must improve? I am. I'm also considering buying a 'retro' track suit I saw at Target. Just a nutty week I tell ya.

Well, not exactly buyer's remorse but rather realizing this week that when we set a desire or a goal to our minds and then when we get the thing we asked for we freak out. Then we've got ourselves in a serious situation. I had a perfectly awesome car for the past year and loved it, but the one I ordered a year ago finally came in. But there's more. I designed another car build for kicks to see which one would come first. Turns out, they both showed up at the same time! Two weeks later, I have neither my old car and neither of the two new cars in my possession. Boy did it really do a number!

In our last transformative lesson series I discuss how I was forced to take ownership of a situation that could have cost someone their safety or life. I was new at the job but quickly accepted responsibility for the wellbeing of others with little support from my superiors. Also, I am almost finished reading David Goggins' book Can't hurt me. He likes yelling at himself in the mirror too. Find out why.

Is that nagging feeling something isn't the way it should be just some random occurence or do we have a magnificent early warning system that goes virtually untouched? How do we even get through our lives without engaging this amazing ability to detect we're not in Kansas anymore?

I know, it sounds so rude and harsh, but haven't you ever found yourself always complaining about something? What about the stuff that makes you angry and you just can't get out of that loop? At some point it's best to simply skip the complaint and embrace the understanding of the situation or what can you learn from it and grow? Also, I swam 15 miles in 8 days to raise money for cancer research. I could use some donations. https://www.facebook.com/donate/745469943462966/

There's no denying this, to become the person we want to be we have to step into the scary and risky and do what we want to become. Also a study on lying revealed it takes a lot of brain power to establish and maintain 'a lie' and that thinking of other stuff defuses the lie. That means whatever you want to do or become must be practiced daily and reinforced regardless of what life throws at you.

Talk about an act of breaking away from what doesn't work! Tonight I discuss taking a risk on ourselves for a change. Why hold back? Our purpose is to grow and nothing says grow more than risking our fears and insecurities and embarking on a new adventure.

I've no idea what I sound like tonight but I know I have one ear clogged up and the other ear is ringing. I'm just happy I'm no longer sneezing. This week is all about thinking of what doesn't work and letting it go which also means you have to come to terms on what makes that thing stick around even though it's not serving you.

Short podcast tonight due to unexpected allergy fit and yes my head is swimming and will have to clear my throat a couple of times. But the podcast must go on. I’m prepared for anything. This week’s transformational lesson is about expectation.

This week I discuss how fear keeps us from growing. I’m also excited to visit Juneau Alaska for the first time.
