Paperwork playoffs, body

Sanibel Island
Home away from home. And office away from office. Being able to work from anywhere is good. Photo: Sanibel Island, 2018. Not much paperwork at the beach. Overwhelmingly digital.

Have spent four decades of collecting and subsequent saving and storing three three-drawer file cabinets full of Disney paperwork.

A lifetime of hope-filled effort.

The consistent and thoughtful Disney paper-collecting is synonymous with a lifetime of regular exercise, adequate rest, and proper nutrition.

Serious, intentional, focused long-term effort creates unique genre assets.

In this case, world-class business correspondence, and, excellent physical vibrancy results.

The world-class Disney paper assets are under final scrutiny now, since commencing about 10 days ago.

Nearly two weeks of ‘final’ purging.

i’m calling it the playoffs.

For the past 10-ish days, have been working through metaphorical quarterfinals, semifinals, and now, today after i write today’s posts, start the finals.

Purge like you mean it, body

Purge: To rid, clear, or free.

Physically.

Going through a lifetime of Disney paperwork, still.

Have done it many times in my life.

So far on this major paperwork cleansing, not coming across workout paperwork.

Why?

Went digital years ago.

And on previous purges, recycled a lifetime of paper workout logs.

Note: The realization that all the paper logs are gone and i do not need nor miss them…progress indeed.

Give me some good news, body

Was averaging 8 miles M-F. That’s 40 miles walking per week, excluding whatever happens on the weekend.

Give me some good news.

Ok.

Making consistent mental and emotional progress on adjusting my physical vibrancy expectations as i get closer to 70.

This is a big deal.

Why?

The mind still says go, go, go.

The body says become a master at avoiding injuries that create lasting pain or require you to stop doing something that you’ve done since you were in high school.

Ownership determines motivation, body

Mickey Mouse note paper with handwritten note
This could easily morph to: “jeff, thank you for never giving up, even when it would be easier to quit. #motivation #ownership #nearing70

Motivation’s secret is ownership.

Therefore, the greater the ownership, the greater the motivation.

i’ve learned that what really counts is what i learn after i think i know it all.

Take my exercise habits.

Injury prevention used to be a rare thought.

Why?

i was strong, resilient, confident.

What i learned the hard way is the mind stays young, the body does not.

And as i approach 70, it gets even more unknown.

Cool.

Ps. Love learning. Always have. Love motivating myself too. Always have.

To each their own, body

To each their own.

Live and let live.

Live and learn.

Dear Son, our life equals our habits.
