Tough love is kind

text note to self
Reminder to consider this idea that popped up just before bicycling yesterday.
coffee mug and glass jar
The bead jar was emptied one bead a week for 18 years (936 weeks). One blue bead remains to allow bead size context. The coffee mug is a gift from Donna Flanagin. Donna has read the 5 daily, differently-themed blog posts since the beginning in 2009.

Tough love is kind.

If you don’t prepare yourself for your future, you are being unkind to yourself.

If you don’t prepare your child(ren) for their future you are being unkind to them.

Tough to think about, right?

That’s why it’s kind.

You alleviate preventable hardship down the road because you planned ahead and acted ahead.

You changed when you didn’t need to.

It’s called being proactive and loving.

This river canyon split in an interesting way. 

Or, it may not split at all. Could be a short, secondary river feeding into a primary river.

The big picture is fascinating, especially when we look at our own lives.

Frequent (daily) self-reflection is a life hack for high achievers. 

High achievers are often the ones who need the least. 

But the secret is you have to work hard to learn what’s essential and what’s not. And then work even harder to put structure and processes in place to deliver on a simple life.
