MARY OLIVERS INSTRUCTIONS FOR LIVING A LIFE:
"PAY ATTENTION.
BE ASTONISHED.
TELL ABOUT IT"
HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND, REALLY ENJOYING THIS HOPE YOU ARE TOO.
COOLIO:)
Good afternoon everyone. I am Marion Jones-Thompson, and I am here today because I have something very important to tell you, my fans, my friends, and my family.
Over the many years of my life, as an athlete in the sport of track and field, you have been fiercely loyal and supportive towards me. Even more loyal and supportive than words can declare has been my family, and especially my dear mother, who stands by my side today.
And so it is with a great amount of shame that I stand before you and tell you that I have betrayed your trust. I want all you to know that today I plead guilty to two counts of making false statements to federal agents.
Making these false statements to federal agents was an incredibly stupid thing for me to do, and I am responsible fully for my actions. I have no one to blame but myself for what I have done.
To you, my fans, including my young supporters, the United States Track and Field Association, my closest friends, my attorneys, and the most classy family a person could ever hope for -- namely my mother, my husband, my children, my brother and his family, my uncle, and the rest of my extended family: I want you to know that I have been dishonest. And you have the right to be angry with me.
I have let them down.
I have let my country down.
And I have let myself down.
I recognize that by saying that I'm deeply sorry, it might not be enough and sufficient to address the pain and the hurt that I have caused you. Therefore, I want to ask for your forgiveness for my actions, and I hope you can find it in your heart to forgive me.
I have asked Almighty God for my forgiveness.
Having said this, and because of my actions, I am retiring from the sport of track and field, a sport which I deeply love.
I promise that these events will be used to make the lives of many people improve; that by making the wrong choices and bad decisions can be disastrous.
I want to thank you all for your time.
It's friday tomorrow thank God
Later

My favourite Footy teams have won many trophies
I want to tell you about the one time they lost and I learned a lesson. Sport has so much to teach us, and if you’re in to it ,competition that is the. I guess the spoils go to you
BMT - BiG Man Ting kidding Big Match Temperament, at the top of the sporting mountain is an opponent and it takes mamba mentality.
Hernan Crespo , Andrei Shevchenko, Kaka , Seedorf , Pirlo , Maldini , Gattuso, Nesta, Pippo Inzaghi and they lost to a couple lads from a park in merseyside you don’t celebrate till the jobs done, never rest on your laurels when you’re opponents down Bury them.
Remember Istanbul I was In high school in 2005 I went to bed after the first half even as a fan I underestimated Liverpool AC Milan lost. There's always a Steven Gerard on the other side ready to go just a bit further, i think adidas were still using the creative platform 'impossible is nothing' this fits.
Don't get killed by Monday :)
Friday is the opposite of Monday, for me at least.
Referee blowing the final whistle it’s the 90th minute, you’ve done what you can, come to terms with the scoreboard win , lose or draw.
No words in this scene except from Andre 3000 as Elevators plays in the background. Whatever piece that is yours in this world cherish it, build from there.
Headphones and Nike’s are the running costs of a self starter, I have the Kicks he’s wearing, Like the exact ones mine are just as worn, the tears could tell you a story.
Thanks for joining me in this Journey so far

“perfect practice makes perfect”
Opening theory in chess is everything because after the opening most times we all know how it will end. I don’t waste an opening my go to is the ‘slav’ defense to avoid ‘Queens Gambit’ and cause I’m from the East Rand ‘Benoni Defense’ the modern variation when I’m playing with black.
Psychologically, you have to have confidence in yourself and this confidence should be based on fact not sleight of hand trust me deception takes practice too.
That’s what chess is about today you break your opponents ego and they learn a lesson and the next day it happens to you. That’s why that moment Chuck is sharing is important most young players suffer from it, blaming yourself because your opponent isn’t doing what you expect you have to adjust.
Whats great about this scene is also that the hustler in the park is played by Maurice Ashley Chess Grandmaster, look at Billions with the details big fan of Brian Koppelman.
Godspeed

The perfect example of an illogical rule, how many of these do you go through a day? I’m sitting here laughing 😂 I’m Yossarian, we’re all Yossarian.
Just so you know the website I used to find the definition of ‘Catch 22’ is called todayIfoundout.com
This shows on HULU it’s great it’s shot impeccably and it’s funny, feels like the world we’re living in now harsh realities every day but at the same time you can laugh.
Still not preaching 🙏🏾😅

Hey,
Being an entrepreneur is simple. i laughed too, well the best are the ones that deal well with uncertainty or rather deal intelligently with uncertainty, mastering the tidal wave, some people prefer chaos weird to aspire to that but understandable as you see.
Bob Dylan once said " It's not dark yet, but it's getting there" those words have never been more true.
Till tomorrow
