Life is full of choices. A growth-mindset focuses on long-term choices.

Your day is clear.

Apple Watch (today)

My day is clear but my vision is not.

Left eye is 20/400 today.

Over-focusing on vibrancy allows you to be the last to feel negative events and the first to recover.

Gonna start “exercising” like a beginner tomorrow.

Atrophy doesn’t take long.

Blessed to have been in a physically vibrant state since 1999.

Now, 24 years later, it’s time to start over. Stopped working out (doctor’s orders) 11 weeks ago. That’s 77 days. Nothing.

i swore years ago that 10 days was my max. And that after 14 days, my body required a start over approach.

So yeah, 77 days.

Do the math.

i swore in 1999 that this was the last time i’d ever say, “i need to start working out.”

Never suspected a torn retina (simply from aging) could bring me to my metaphorical knees.

Yet here we are.

Note: Still have 60 days without incident before Dr. Kumar will feel like second surgery is a success.

Eliminating regret can be as small as asking for something you think could be nothing. But if it ‘was’ something and you could have caught it early but didn’t…

i’m pro-level dialed into my health.

i over-focus on the same things i used to under-focus on or ignore.

Google said the floaters are not troublesome at this stage in the recovery.

i have a recent and current history with eye surgeries…

Experienced my eyesight return so well three weeks after the first surgery. Told Cheryl, “My sight without glasses seems better than with glasses, on the repaired left eye.

The surgery recovery unexpectedly turned into classic “once bitten twice shy”. Here’s how…

At the beginning of the forth week post-op eye surgery number one, the retina ruptured while i laid in bed watching Yellowstone.

No warning signs. None. Zero.

But immediate action the next day, a Tuesday (September 12), led to emergency eye surgery number two on Thursday (September 14) . This is the surgery i’m now four weeks post op recovering from.

Today is Friday the 13th. October.

Better safe than sorry is worthless as a theory without application.

Sunrises never get old.

As progress happens, there’s a super slow return to daily habits. Being up on the roof is a regular perk from an active and present lifestyle. Walking for 60 minutes a day versus 30 minutes a day – so juvenile, yet so welcomed.

Anything that doesn’t feel like a couch-potato prison feels like a ticket to normal.
