Snowyay









On a softer note, we had each other. And really I always have them --And really they always make life more bearable, or better... more worth it. Thanks for keeping my head up above water, above snow.

How easy it is to log on and recall when not so good things happen, when on the flip side, on the real side, there are so many good things to celebrate. And it's so good to feel happy, and realize you feel happy. Good thing we have pictures.

Happy New Year Friends. So good to have another shot at those resolutions. Really, everyday's another shot. To another year of learning and meeting brilliant friends. Best best wishes.

Millionaire Mindset

Theory Jester Runway

On reading memos to myself: 'Stop trying to plan everything out, it's officially weird.'
'Later' is almost never the better time to choose to do something. If you see an opportunity, even if it is little, it maybe wider than it will be later. I plan out EVERYTHING. Actually, almost, because a lot of the time I am not planning out the things that even matter. I'm just planning the words I will say to someone, the tone in my voice, if I work out this many days a week I may get married by 2025. Haha. But I'm not planning out how to demolish my student loan and cc in the smallest time segment possible. Yet weirdly I feel like I am prioritizing. Ignore me. I'm grateful for all the opportunities that arrive my way and may I grab each of them even when I don't feel so ready. Just get it.

Thank you, 2014

High Resolution

My 2015, this time next year, will we be also be saying, "My how quickly this year flew by"? How brightly we anticipated '14. And she's still with us, still shining. 2015 might I not enter only with desire, but with the wisdom to make every moment be and feel one-of-a-kind. That I not only seek moments that take my breath away, but immerse myself in the moments where I already feel that way. That I look upon every day as a day with opportunity glistening between the mundane. And that I get ever so stronger when things don't go the way I wish, and that I see those happenings happened for the better.

Thank you lovely, lovely ladies!! What a sweet scent the new year brings.

Brightest year yet
















All in all this year is spectacular. I have still yet to get over how magnificent our apartment is, and how warm this season has made it. I've learned and experienced so many new feelings thanks to all of you I am meeting along the way. I also feel more energized than I did previously before. Mostly I must remember to not close myself off to all the good things that could happen just because they don't seem in line with the plans I imagined for myself. Go with the flow, be smart, be bright.

Grasping

My big realization: a tendency to grasp at things when I get a bite. And that kind of attitude doesn't lead to any thing good for the parties involved. I want to protect the butterflies that land on my hand, not swish them, or ignore them.

I am standing on the train and notice someone looking over and so I look over too. When the seat in front opens I slide into it and they slide into the spot next to me. We go a few stops and notice them smiling again, so in a moment of unexpected boldness, I ask what they are smiling about and if I missed something funny. In the conversation to follow I ask if they grew up in New York. After the 'no' I actually thought would be a 'yes', they follow with, "guess". And I am just thinking, "The world is so big, how could I possibly guess". Reflecting on those words later, my, how profound that is. They could really be from any where in the world, and the world really is so big. So many awesome people are out there I have never met before. So many people we are compatible with and can effect each other in extraordinary ways. They say, "Cyprus". So there's really no need to grasp. There really are "many fish in the sea" and many opportunities to make connections. You've just have to have these moments of boldness, no matter how awkward, to say hello.

Always lovely when Tomin's in town. This is the part of the calendar that can always anticipate lots of eating situations. It's crazy how great you feel after a great breakfast/greatfood/greatfriends. She's headed to Iceland this Thanksgiving. Apparently they have really great yogurt there. Have fun Tominaga! s a y o n a r a

A big project for this part of my life has been to create a fulfilling existence. Am I working to my fullest potential? What can I do to make it better? Is there a way to maximize the life I already have by linking it to my future goals? The best answer is to perform best for others' success and push for my own. Really, don't we all want to become our most valuable.. So here is where I am, Miguel. These are the building blocks. Will keep all progress logged and eyes set forward.
