The Correct Response

Ridgeway Res. last year. We're going to take the boat out this Sunday for Fathers Day, can't wait.

The Correct Response isn't always easy nor do we know what that might be. However we can improve the odds by practicing a few things. One is patience, don't jump to conclusions when a problem arises. Choose a response that is based on the situation and not just a reaction to a frustrating problem. Keep control of your emotions and stay focused on where you are and where you want to go. Rather than allowing yourself to be overwhelmed by life's little surprises, decide to take each situation one step at a time. It doesn't matter so much how big a step, but the correct step is more important. Instead of making a quick decision put some positive time into making the correct decision. Though the circumstances might not be ideal, you can still make the correct response. You can decide how to respond. And the way you choose to respond will definitely make a difference in the outcome of any situation. We can't always control what comes our way but we can control what to do about it. The Correct Response is always there for the taking. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way. I hope everyone had a great weekend and thanks for visiting my thought today.

Set An Example

Another one of my favorite fishing spots in the Black Canyon.

Set An Example with the way you live your life. Each day has great value, not just for you but for others around you. Every achievement and every set back has something to teach us about ourselves. Learn the lessons well and apply them to everyday life and you will be on your way to a brighter future. Your influence is far greater than you realize. Use that influence wisely to improve everything with which you are connected to. Stop judging others and start judging yourself. You can set an example by showing others whom to judge. By setting theses examples you can put your values to work, moving closer to your goals and making life a much better place for you and others around you. By making improvements in your own attitude and behavior you'll see improvements in those around you. The world around you will follow the example you set, so make it a good one. Set An Example Today. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way. I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful summer weekend. Have fun and be safe.

Take Your Best Shot

One of my favorite pictures and fishing holes in Curicanti National Forest.

Go ahead take your best shot. Come out of your box and cross over the line. Live a little, do something different and exciting. Instead of wondering if you can do it, find out for sure. Give it your 100% and don't worry about not succeeding. If you don't try you, surely you won't succeed. Stop making excuses and make it happen today. You have experience with winning so why not put your knowledge to good use. Value is built not by wishing or wondering. Value is build by action,commitment and persistence. You might succeed or you might fail, either way is better than not trying at all. So go ahead, think positive and take your best shot. You might be surprised of the outcome. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way. Happy Thursday everyone and thanks again for visiting my thought today.

No Day Is Wasted

Sunset on our lake the other night. Another beautiful end to the day.

No Day Is Wasted. No matter what the day entailed it's never wasted. We often fail to understand how valuable each and every day is. Every moment in each day has great value. No matter what comes along be thankful for the experience. Bet thankful and know that there is a reason he has led you down this path. We might not always like it nor understand, but there is a reason to the madness. The beauty of the day is not in the particulars. The true value is that you are alive and are able to take it all in. Choose to grow with it and learn from every experience good and bad. With every experience you should gain strength and the will to keep pushing on. The energy to continue on and make life even better is a valuable asset that we should cherish. Yes in deed, no day is wasted. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way. I hope everyone had a great Monday. I would like to welcome all the new visitors and likes to my thought of the day. Feel free to share with friends and comment on anything you like.

Reality Check

Some pelicans floating in Johnstown Reservoir last week.

Every once in a while we all need A Reality Check.The world is the way it is and you are the way you are so what can be done about it? Are you going to dwell on the past? Wish you could go back in time? Or even stop today in it's moment. This is all a waste of time. The sooner we realize that time moves in one direction the better off we'll be. Time moves forward and only forward. Are you going to sit around and wait for someone else to solve your problems for you? If so your going to fall further behind. Are you going to waste energy because you feel you have been treated unfairly by life? If so the negative outcomes will increase.It's your choice to make.You're in this state because you have chosen this road. So why not choose to be positive? Why not wake up to a Reality Check? Except the way things are and start doing something about them. It doesn't really matter who's fault you think it is. It doesn't really matter where you have been or where you are now. What really matters is the choice is yours where you go from here. Use this day to improve yourself and others around you. Improve your situation right now. It's never to late for a Reality Check. Don't forget to love always,forgive quickly and smile along the way.Take a moment today to tell a friend or loved one how much you appreciate them in your life.

Have Fun

A great Blue Heron flying over Johnstown Reservoir last week.

Have Fun every chance you get. We often over look many opportunities to have fun. Life is so short and we get so caught up with work and bringing home that pay check that we forget to have fun. We forget to stop and smell the roses from time to time. There are many ways to have fun when you make the choice to do it. Regardless of what you doing or what you have to do,you can choose to make it fun. Make the best out of every situation no matter what it might be. By not fighting against yourself and others you open up many opportunities to make any situation better. If you must get it done then put fun into it, in the end you will get much more out of it. Having fun doesn't mean being reckless and out of control. Having fun means being positive,creative and enthusiastic about what ever your doing. You will get more done and be more affective while having fun. Don't forget to love always, forgive quickly and smile along the way. Thank you for visiting my thought for the day. Feel free to share and comment on anything you see fit. Have a great weekend everyone.

God Bless
