Never regret. If it’s good, it’s wonderful. If it’s bad, it’s an experience. — Victoria Holt

Although you might say the same thing about loss or grief, opportunities that can give you major leaps forward in your life are rare. Sometimes, something passes by that you should be able to recognize using your life’s experience. But instead of taking action, you watch it go by and believe it will reappear or work in your favor. Usually, something happens, and it doesn’t lead to a final result. You look back at all the signs you should have noticed. But in life and love, like luck, it passed you by, and you didn’t notice it or procrastinated until it was too late. 

“Preparation meets opportunity” is what luck really is about, so be prepared.

The most significant attributes a person can develop for success in life are adaptability and the ability to embrace change. Examine the last few years of your life. How much has changed? How many things in your life have you altered? How much have you progressed? Most of us are arrogant and stubborn in our self-image and interpretation of our lives. We are comfortable with what we have developed and our progress, and we cannot accept a quantum leap forward because it first requires unlearning a behavior and then substituting it with an unfamiliar action to achieve meaningful progress. No one can learn for you, just as no one can eat your food for you. You will make no progress without a willingness to assume responsibility.

If we always do what we have done, even though it is easier, we will always get the same results. 

The more successful you are, the easier it is to lead. With success, you can afford better advisors, food, health care, and, most of all, more energy. Seek out an older, successful person and ask for their advice. Consider their advice with a view toward change and vision. Stop everything and listen to the quiet to connect with your intuition and creative thoughts. Forget multitasking and focus on doing one thing with quality and excellence. Life is action, but do not confuse activity with progress. Satoru

America is at a crossroads and precipice. In the coming years, the results will define the country for generations. These are perilous times. Over the last few years, much of what we hold dear is threatened – democracy, civility, and truth. 

The Republican Party announced today that it is changing its emblem from an elephant to a condom because it more clearly reflects the Republican Party’s position on the significant issues facing America. A condom accepts inflation, halts production, destroys the next generation, protects a bunch of pricks, and gives you a sense of security while you’re getting screwed.

Doing anything to improve the situation is better than doing nothing, no matter how small. Write a letter, make a phone call, talk to a neighbor, talk to several people, vote and elect new representatives, attend a meeting, get involved, and make a difference.

“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.” Gandhi

These small changes will facilitate making you feel stronger and healthier. You don’t need to make significant changes to see positive results. Focus on what you’re trying to add.

Your morning routine could add or subtract years from your life, especially for older adults. 

These habits can enhance your body’s longevity and strength.

When you wake up in bed, practice deep breathing. This means breathing in deeply, holding your breath, and letting it out slowly.

Drink a full glass of water before you have your coffee or tea.

If you’re lifting weights to gain strength and muscle, as you should, add a half-teaspoon of ground Chia seeds and collagen to your coffee, with a dash of turmeric.

Get about 10 minutes of bright light. Of course, direct sunlight is best.

This can be done while balancing on one foot, then the other, to improve your balance.

Have breakfast with some protein. Meat is more easily digested in the morning.

These morning habits may seem simple, but they have positive physical effects. If you need more information, look it up online, and it will corroborate what is said.
