Hello! Welcome to the report card for every day's
continuous test with no subject. What's your
answer? Was it meaningful? This life is so beautiful
with the ebbs and flows, the peaks and valleys,
the ups and downs. And what makes it most worth
living is when you are Living just beyond your
edge. Knowing that. There is a limitation to
us human beings. And that's specific for. Each
unique one. However. To know where that edge
is. And not to just stop there. But to just lean
just beyond it. And. Sometimes we might overstretch
and sometimes we may be safeguarded. However,
if you're still leaning, then you're doing the
right thing. And I believe that's just my cosm
of where I'm at in life. Today is July 14th,
2025. 1138 a .m. Monday. Just put myself out
there for national organization position, really
high, president. And was working on it for a
few months. Campaign was a few months and I lost.
Yet and still I'm at peace because I truly know
I gave it my all. and what more can you ask of
yourself if you know that you did absolutely
everything that there was and the ball just didn't
roll in my favor and that's okay we find wins
within our losses people and I love when this
Time in life always occurs. Because it's a great
moment for. Reflection. Reassessment. And understanding
that the seasons change. And be able to know.
When that season is. Because. Nobody complains.
Or says it's a bad shot. If you make it. Nevertheless.
Let's start it. Song of the day. Possibly it
is. No, this is ending our 61st playlist of abundance
with what the hell? What the hell? What the hell?
No, Rob for nine. That's literally my energy
as I woke up. I woke up yesterday after knowing
that I failed. And just being light about it
and waking up after that, finally back home.
I was out of state at the convention. And after
getting the kids in order and wife and just being
me, taking a moment in a day. Put on that risky
business. Tom Cruise. Take those old records
off the shelf. Just lit across the. Wood flare.
Just making light of the situation. Understanding
that. I can laugh at myself. I can still listen.
And know that. Life isn't over even in failure.
And. Also thinking. How can I be a failure. In.
Have a roof over my head, clothes on my back.
Stomach's not growling. Health and able body.
That's what it's about. We can't just always,
we can't just be stuck in that thought. Like,
that's it. So, what the hell? um what did i read
um of course always on my daily meditations by
robert green but that's always like like one
minute and then uh real influence by mark colston
just really this is all about listening i feel
like understanding taking a moment taking your
ego out not trying to respond and Even if you're
trying to get someone to get your way, it always
begins in understanding what's important to them
first to know that with that information, you
will be able to get where you're trying to go
by knowing how to get them there. And they're
there. Was I physically active? I was super proud.
Me and my spouse was able to get our cardio.
even in a hotel in a different state in a small
town and it was really refreshing and was needed
just to break up the anxiety and the everydayness
of you know just trying out new restaurants and
um i was laughing while i was saying i was shaking
babies and kissing hands um no not really but
yeah um got back in the cardio phase and that's
so needed you know get so focused on getting
those gains and trying to be bigger and be fit
and have strength and still gotta have that endurance
and stamina with the cardio so was on that pretty
heavy um these past like three four days Well,
sunrise and sunset because you create a day.
Ours has been going longer. What did I succeed
at? Humility. Understanding. Listening. And knowing
the power of silence and when to speak up. Knowing
the power of when to appear and when to be present
and when to not be. and understanding what made
me smile um being able to walk back in my home
uh Making sure that the trash got put out by
myself and family house. And just feeling back
at home after trying your hardest in a foreign
land and being able to just rest my head and
feel secure and safe and where I'm supposed to
be. And it's right here. What do I think of my
day overall It was trying It was humbling It
was Energy consuming And it was an experience
And what grade do I get myself? I'm going to
go with a B. Straight like that. Sometimes we
just don't hit that mark. Sometimes even if we
tried our best, I'll just say I'm going into
every test trying to get 100%. i'm never thinking
that i'm okay with this wrong answer i'm going
into it with the thought of 100 and it just doesn't
follow that way whether it be you looked over
the instructions too fast or you simply didn't
know it or it was a trip up question and was
meant and systematically put in there for you
to get wrong Unless you know the small little
nuances. And so. That's just life. And. You can
always feel secure and happy. And know that.
Proud of the person that you're looking at in
the mirror. Knowing that you're doing your best.
You're doing your best for your physical self.
You're doing your best for your mental self.
You're doing your best for your work self. You're
doing your best for your community self. You're
doing your best for your parenting self. You're
doing your best for your marriage self. You're
doing your best for your friend's self. You're
doing your best for your everything. Knowing
what brings peace to you. And standing on your
principles. Jeez. So. It's about that fork in
the road. And that pivot. Right now. For me.
Seasons change over. Even though we're still
in the middle of summer. And with that... Once
again!
