Comes from Recognition.
Why not?
I don’t think anybody wants to do anything for a long period of time without recognition.
That’s the very reason many golfers don’t play alone…for if they hit a great shot, there was no one there to see it.
So recognize others for their efforts and contributions…and it will give them the fuel to keep going strong.

We all make mistakes, and when we “Own it”, we can make amends and move on.
Most of us were taught this from childhood, yet some of us haven’t learned it.
Starting in school, teachers never really bought that our dog ate our homework, and that a note from our parents was the only thing that excused our absences – not our excuses.
Later on in school, teachers really didn’t care if you showed up or not, and assessed you accordingly, along with your grades, and not excuses for not doing the work assigned.
That’s why we have laws, to dictate the way we act and behave in public, and law, police and courts don’t account for excuses.
So why do some attempt to make excuses for things in their lives instead of “owning them”? Don’t really know.

Caring.
That’s from our very own Illustrious Fred!
He’s right – and we innately learned it when we were kids – you remember – when you cared about someone – you shared, and when you didn’t – they got nothing.
But as we grow older, we also begin to understand that sharing is just a great thing to do – no matter what we have, or who the other person is…because as adults, we know something that we didn’t know as a kid…we can always get more of what we share, and when we share first, it opens the spirit of caring.
Nice one – Making the World a Better Place.

Stretching is one of the most important forms of exercise. It brings
movement to tissues that need motion to stay supple, elastic and
function properly. Without movement, our tissues get less pliable and
become rigid over time. The saying, “If you don’t use it, you’ll lose
it,” is especially true of our body and it’s parts. More precisely, we
not only lose it but lose its function as well. Our body’s tissues are
likened to a rubber band: If the rubber band is stretched daily, it
remains functional and elastic. Whereas, if you don’t stretch a
rubber band and leave it alone, over time the rubber band will become
brittle and lose its function.
Stretching not only allows for full range of motion of the tissues,
joints and organs, it allows for increased circulation to help nourish
the body’s tissues while enhancing the elimination of natural toxins
that build up with out motion.
So, the basics of stretching go far beyond overcoming the feeling of
being “stiff”. Stretching has a list of health benefits that go on and on.

And our body functions.
We’ve all heard of the Masters that can focus on their body or their senses and control the function – Maybe that’s why we call them Masters.
Some can purposefully drop their hear rate to 30 beats per minute on command. Others can gain and sustain high amplitude gamma waves which are associated with attention, conscious perception and learning, and some can even shift the brain activity to the left prefrontal cortex.
And there are those that can heighten their vision and hearing by much study and training and some can even shut out the outside world by quieting all of their senses, and just “Be”.
I don’t want to brag, but I have mastered the sense of hearing, especially when it comes to my kids asking me for some dough.
What have you mastered?

In our thoughts at night – when we are supposed to be sleeping, but aren’t?
Most of us seem to balance out when we go to bed and unwind our thoughts and take the leash off our reality.
That’s good, yet it also can be a challenge as our thoughts sometimes take liberty with reality and many times, go off in a negative direction.
Then we wake up and say to ourselves, “What was I thinking”? But the next night the same thoughts come back.
These thoughts serve no great purpose and in being negative, they simply are wasting our time when we could be thinking about the great things in our lives and let our minds wander in a more positive direction.
It’s your mind and your reality – make it work for you.
