Why Meditate?

Carry The Weight!

I really don’t have a specific message in mind as I write this. I mostly just want to get a few thoughts out in the open. Spoiler alert, I’m going to ramble a little bit. I posted a while back about being capable of exploring all the different routes to take with a non-profit. My…

"Both success and failure are largely the results

"Both success and failure are largely the results of habit." -Napolean Hill

Not trying to be a dick, but it's you. You're the one responsible for your happiness, success and well-being. If you really give a shit, look in the mirror and figure out where you can make changes. Figure out where your actions and sense of responsibility can be improved on and get after it Don't wait for anyone else to notice. Don't bend and fold to other's opinions and expectations. Just do the fucking work. Not everyday is gonna be a breakthrough. Some days are gonna suck. You're not special. Trudge!!!!

Somewhere in the Caucus Mountains on my way to the Russian Border, Jan 2014.
We had just finished a deployment with Georgian Troops in Afghanistan and my CO convinced the embassy that we both needed to return to debrief our deployment. A 15 minute meeting with bureaucrats and 4 days of liberty in Tbilisi, Georgia sounded like a good way to close my 7th and final deployment.

I know that this time of year is hard for many of us. It's cold, it's wet. We can't do things we normally can. The sun is hiding. Our plants are dormant. The snow pulls your truck into the ditch. Whatever it is, it's the dead of winter. So ask yourself this question, what makes you so better than the bear hidden in his cave, or the frog buried in the mud? We all poop and pee don't we? So adapt. Don't take shit so personally. The cycles of the planet are for the benefit of the planet, so roll with the punches and get some sleep. Start some seeds inside and by the time they're ready to be planted in the ground, the ground will be dry and the sun will be closer. For now, enjoy this stage and prepare for the next. There is nothing more human about this.

I took a dozen pictures of my boy and this flag and this was the best face he could give me.
This piece is 21x35 inches but also comes in 14x24, 18x30, and 28x46. Great for any wall where you want to display your American pride!

I guess I haven't been on here much this month. I know I need to get back into posting more business posts and working on that end, but if I'm being honest, I have immensely enjoyed my time away. I am happy to see that more and more of us are opening up to the reality that social media is a double edged knife that is dramatically destroying many aspects of what makes us who we are, both as individuals and as a people.

I'm not quite sure how I'll tackle this in the future when things ramp up, but I can't worry about that right now.
Right now I am enrolled in a Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction course that is built on the foundations of Jon Kabat Zinn's "Whole Catastrophe Living".

I find it's hard to find the time for a 45 minute body scan every day, especially when I've got both parenting responsibilities on my plate, but I feel like I'm gaining so much more than what I'm losing. I'm not losing anything really, just stress and anxiety that I never needed in the first place.

I'm loving the course and trying to find pathways that I can clear for folks like me to follow in the future. I have to remind myself that I'm no good to anyone else if I can't stand on my own two feet first. Listening to my body and being present has definitely shown me where I've been slacking and I'm excited to share my experience, strength and hope with anyone else that feels like sometimes they're carrying too much weight.

For now, I'll leave you with this, and please leave me a comment so that I might broaden my scope on this.
What are the distinctions between "Acknowledgment" and "Acceptance", and between "Letting go" and "Letting be"?

"Perhaps happiness is always to be found in the journey uphill, and not in the fleeting sense of satisfaction awaiting at the next peak." -Jordan Peterson

Think about this for a minute today. Everything in life abides by the seasons, but for some reason we think that the cycles of this planet don't apply to us. We try to be the same animals in the winter that we were in the summertime, and then we wonder why we're unhappy.

Accept more.
Expect less.
There is more right with us, than wrong with us.
Give yourself a break.

I apologize for the silence on here lately. Got my hands pretty full with all the kids and taking care of the wife. I'm seeing some real promise in what lies ahead. I think it all depends on the way you perceive it. I'll be back in the shop in the next few days and I've got a few that I'm itching to finish. Stay tuned.

Something I've been telling myself a lot lately that I heard on JRE, "We treat Behavior as if it is an ambassador of the mind but really, it's a tool for survival."
-Jospeh E. Ledeux

It is a survival skill.

Nothing more.

Usually, it's not that there is anything wrong with that person, it's just that for whatever reason, that person was maybe denied something once, from someone else or from themselves, and they act a certain way to compensate and/or protect themselves from future attacks or denials.

Now I don't know about the rest of you, but this concept has the potential to shift your entire paradigm IF you can get outside of your own head and see things as they are instead of what you want them to be.
