Keep going till you get desired results.

I kept trying, proposing, pushing… If you want to succeed, you cannot leave work half done….

*The year is almost over. Keep trying and pushing – don’t leave any of your work half done.

BODY

“The fitness industry has changed mightily. Fast bouncing and a lot of what we did back in the early 80s has gone out of favor. Core training is where it’s at and exercise physiology has made important strides in understanding what different bodies need for different purposes,”

*Do a Jane Fonda 1980s workout. Leg warmers are optional. Watch her win the Oscar in the movie Coming Home for motivation.

SOUL

“The times that I’ve made terrible mistakes as an actor have been when I’ve tried to do something that I thought someone else would like and it didn’t come from my heart,”

ENTERTAINMENT

Ray Romano 1957 – watch Everybody Loves Raymond

For such a traditional sitcom, Raymond was intent on drilling down into its characters’ psyches and finding out why they were the way they were. It was a comedy, yes, with punchlines and setups and the like, but it had the feel of a really good stage comedy, one where the laughs are there to mask some degree of pain.

*Watch a few episodes of Everybody Love Raymond. Is it just me or was his wife a real bitch?

Samuel L. Jackson intimidating someone while picking up their burger and taking a big juicy bite out of it is undoubtedly one of the best food scenes in cinema history. On top of being an insanely badass scene, that Big Kahuna Burger looks good enough to make anyone hungry for burgers (they’re the cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast, after all).

*You’ve got lots of options today while enjoying this Big Kahuna Burger. Including watching 24, Everybody Loves Raymond, a Dreamworks movie or Pulp Fiction one more time before the end of the year.

I was born in Northwestern Pennsylvania and lived in a trailer park. I was raised by very conservative and religious (Wesleyan Methodist) parents. By some miracle I graduated college and moved to Florida. I have been a public school teacher since 1995. I have 7 years until I can retire. I was married in 1999 and divorced in 2001. I remarried in 2017 to Kate - 21 years my junior. Some of my life experiences as a 46-year-old, white American male, will come through in my writing, but the majority of this daily journey will be dedicated to improving myself, and hopefully you as well.
