2013 numbers part 2

Posted the numbers for 2013, I haven't done a very good job of accounting and filling it in.  I need to get a better handle of marking everything done.

I'm behind in all my goals, the only good side is the fact that I'm actually moving forward. Not at break neck speed but still progress none the less. 

Moving forward is probably the biggest obstacle for most people. Any time someone receives push back or some kind of road block we tend to give up. It's easier and I would have to say it's part of our nature.

My philosophy, just do it...if you fail....why did you.....and do it again. 

You only fail if you stop trying and ONLY YOU can make that determination.

Be kind

Ahhh!    I hate mental illness. 

Make sure you're kind people, you don't know what battles they're dealing with. 

Everyone can see and understand a physical disability.  We tend to go out of our way to help them, such getting to door,  letting them go first, we feel sorry for their circumstance, etc. 

Not many people can see a mental disability, even fewer people understand it.  Hence we do very little or give two thoughts about why they are acting the way they are. Many times we pass judgement, they're a bad parent, why don't they discipline him, I wouldn't do that, if he can just control himself and so forth. 

Just because someone looks all right on the outside, it doesn't mean that they're alright on the inside. Make it a habit to be kind to everyone.  

Focus?

Another week has gone by, a little but of excitement this past week with Kurtis breaking his ankle and requiring surgery to fix it.  Nothing like more challenges to make life more interesting.

I'm finishing off some  reading for a couple of meetings this week. 

Training has slowed down, feel like I've hit a wall. The motivation to get engaged is lacking. Got to find some way o recharge the batteries. 

Tough week

Nothing day

Finally had a relaxing day. Didn't have anything to read for meetings, no work, no Kung fu. To bad the weather wasn't very nice. It was windy and cold so I didn't get to go for a swim or a kayak. Now for an early bedtime as the grind starts early in the morning.  

Another first

Another first for me this weekend. I threw out the first pitch for the 2013 Provincial Baseball Championships. 

It was also a first for Baseball Alberta to have 3 Championships in one community.  This just shows how strong and dedicated our local organizations are. 

The Stony Plain Amateur Minor Ball Association (SPAMBA) has spent countless hours working to make sure this weekend would be a great success. I dropped in a few times and was elated that everything was going well.  These type of events (the preparation of) builds character in the community
