TRICKY DICK DAY

MIND

Richard Nixon 1913

Our Presidents — The first televised debate happened on September...

*Insecurity is one of the many things that led to Nixon’s downfall. Think about living by the value that you have nothing to prove and nothing to lose.

What is one of your insecurities?

How could you live like you have nothing to prove and nothing to lose?

*If a 5’3” guy can play in the NBA, you can accomplish your goals this year. You can read 12 books. You can get 6-pack abs. You can donate to charity. You can start your own business.

What are your goals for this year?

How can you achieve them?

MONEY

John Sperling 1921

Super-Wealthy Threesome Fund Growing War on the War on Drugs - WSJ

*Dr. John Sperling believed that lifelong employment with a single employer would be replaced by lifelong learning and employment with a variety of employers.

There’s nothing wrong with lifelong employment with a single employer. As I type this, I’ve been a public-school teacher in Central Florida for the past 26 years. I’m just now realizing that I need to get out of my comfort zone if I ever want to do what I really love in life with enough money to thrive while doing it. This is why I keep typing.

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.
