While watching the figure skaters at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan, I came up with this theory on how we skate through life. If you think about it, just like a pro athlete, we spend years doing the same things over and over and get really good at whatever the program is for […]
Wow, I was so excited to write this blog post. It came to me this morning, and it blew my mind! So, I hope it gives you something to think about because it sure did me. I realized today that I was not acknowledging my limitations. It was like I pretended I didn’t […]
While listening to a YouTube video from Wake Me Up (highly recommend for positive, uplifting messages to start your day), I read the creator’s comment asking, “What is one thing you can be grateful for?” It made me pause and think about that. Surely, we could all think of one thing to be grateful for. Right? […]
I had a different idea for a blog post, and then this popped into my head, and I have to roll with it. I get these ideas in the middle of the night, after I wake to pee and can’t fall back to sleep. It’s frustrating, but my mind conjures up interesting ideas, so […]

The idea for this post came to me as I was drifting off to sleep. I am almost finished reading Goals! How to Get Everything You Want – Faster Than You Ever Thought Possible, by Brian Tracy. I have a few of his audiobooks and used to listen to them when I commuted to and […]
