Right off the bat when I saw this, I mistook it for someone else and after I recorded this episode, I realized this was not the sports broadcaster that I thought it was. My apologies for mixing this up. Steve Keating (@LeadToday) put this out there: “If you're not making progress then you're probably not making anything else either.” This post got me thinking and connected this to another item I just ran across and that is the podcast from John O’Leary where he interviewed his guest, Kyle Scheele. It’s a powerful episode - liste to it HERE. The main post from Steve was that it was connected to a quote from Benjamin Franklin, which said: “Without continual growth and progress, such words as improvement, achievement, and success have no meaning.” The reason this popped up on my radar was that both connections reminded me how important it is to keep going in life. To keep learning new things along with to keep putting in effort in life because of the new things. I really advise you to listen to that podcast from John O’Leary as there were so many things in there that inspired this podcast & inspired me too!! Thanks for listening.

Found a double stacker today with some good reminders for all of us. The first one came from Reads with Ravi (@readswithravi) where this was shared: “Allow yourself to shine without the desire to be seen.” As I was sharing some thoughts here in this episode about this post, I started to share something else from a post I also shared - this one came from Mind Essentials (@Mind_Essentials) where this thought connected: “Do everything with a good heart, expect nothing in return, and you will never be disappointed.” Both of these tie into the thought of “do good anyway.” No matter what is happening - nobody is telling you thank you, someone you helped didn’t help you, your kind heart is not getting you noticed, etc. Also, there will be the arrows that get shot at you - the negativity, hatred, anger, lies, etc. Again, do good anyway! The world needs more of it for sure. Thanks for listening.

Another awesome post came across my “tele-type” this morning from Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_) which reminded me of a few things. This post shared these great thoughts: “Make it a habit to talk about blessings more than burdens. When you spread positivity, the Universe blesses you with even more blessings. Close the window that triggers you, no matter how captivating it is. Be disciplined about what you entertain. Where focus goes, energy flows.” These things on this list screamed at me to keep working on them - for my sake and the sake of everyone that needs me to be my best. I think if you look at each of these statements for yourself, like me, you will find plenty to keep working on yourself, in order to be your best. One thing for sure - the world needs each of us to be trying to do our best and to keep getting better. Thanks for listening.

I found a great short reminder about what we can do instead of seeking revenge on someone. This person puts out some great stuff, thanks Mindful Maven (@mindfulmaven_) for this: “A wise man said: Don’t seek revenge. The rotten fruits will fall by themselves.” Those people who are out there causing you problems - just remember, they are causing troubles for others and mainly themselves!! Don’t waste your time trying to get back at them as we all have to remember, they live with themselves!! All the “crap” they are putting out in the world, all comes back to them. We can rest easy at night knowing we don’t have to live with them and that we are investing in ourselves to be our best; while they are using all of their time putting out seeds of anger, negativity, hatred, lies, etc. Don’t give them a second more of your energy!!

I found these three things that made sense to me about how I can keep getting better. The Mindfulness Meditation Institute (@TrainingMindful) reminds all of us that “Ability is what you’re capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it.” The first thing that got my attention is that all three of these are things that I know I can work on and to keep looking to improve. When that happens, I know that the people that I love and care about, will get my best version of myself - which in turn will help them in different ways. Little things like this can help us throughout our lives. Thanks for listening.

Wow.. what a fun one this one was to put together. I tried a video recording along with recording the audio on my phone. The video will be on my Youtube channel so I can put it out there and start to do some different things. Not sure what all of those are, but I’m trying them for sure. The idea from this episode mainly came from a former student of mine, Rynn Foster who posted this awesome picture of a sunrise with the thought: “One day we’ll all be a sunrise in someone’s life, a beautiful sunrise” That got me thinking about the fact how special that will be having someone remember me when they look at a beautiful sunrise (or sunset too), along with the fact that it got me thinking about family and loved ones that are no longer here or those that I have not seen in a long time. There were a lot of emotions with this post when I saw it as my day got started out thinking about things in a more positive way, wanting to get better for myself and for others - especially in today’s negative, angry and hateful world. Rynn helped to remind me of what I want to focus more on - I reached out to her and thanked her for this and it reminds me of one of many things that I love about being a life-long educator. My students / players / coworkers have always been difference makers for me and for many of them, it’s been happening throughout my whole life!! Next time you see a sunrise or sunset, remember these things. Thanks for listening.
