DOWN ON THE FARM DAY

MIND

Cee Lo Green 1974

SOUL

Gale Sayers 1943

Sayers’ account of his relationship with Piccolo was turned into “Brian’s Song” which won an Emmy Award — its message of racial harmony, friendship, gutsiness and compassion struck a chord.

*Watch Brian’s Song for a refresher’s course on racial harmony, friendship, gutsiness, and compassion.

MONEY

Marissa Mayer 1975

“Don’t forget to be bold.”

She considers those five words every day as the CEO of Yahoo … and gives similar advice to others:

“If you really want to create something transformational — if you really want to make a difference in your life and other people’s lives — yes, it’s always easy to take the safer incremental choice and to iterate … But remember to be bold.”

*As you continue to create your dream business, do not forget to be bold.

This quote could be part of your daily morning routine.

*Watch David (Jones) Bowie’s son win a BAFTA Award for Moon.

FOOD

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.
