couldwouldshould- Consider it Done

Hello- is this thing on?  Sorry readers. AsChuck Woolerie would say- "beback in 2 and 2" turned into 2 and 2 times40. No worries, I'm addingwriting back onto my list of things to do, right after I fix this space bar.

That's better. 
There are times in life that the balls I juggle seem to be the size of watermelons. That's okay once in a while, like 3 days straight. Not 3 months straight.

At one time, I can juggle 3 balls well- even though there are 4.
1. Family
2. Myself
3. Work
4. Friends

So when I juggle all 4- one lips, slides, shifts and splits into a Weird Al Yankovic like pile all over the environment called my life.  I compare my life to marathon training. 1 time a week there is a long run. See photos of today's below-
Mile .001
Mile 8.3
Mile- DONE


I know, I know.  Major bed head, right? So at any point in my life, I am at 1 of these 3 stages.  Right now, I have come up for air.  So I am in stage 1.

Since starting a new job in July- my life has been thrown back on a roller coaster- not that I ever got off the other one, so this one goes backwards.  Also, since starting a new position I have learned 2 things. I will share these with you.
 
1. Success is about people. I have found 2 types. Type A- hidden talent. You know who they are- they fly under the radar, but everyone goes to them because everyone above the radar has figured out that the hidden gem is undiscovered. Type B- the crazies.  AKA the outliers- they challenge rules, culture and their boss. They lead you to other outliers. We need an educational system full of them.

2. I have learned to STOP and THINK. When asked a question, stop answering with a statement, start answering it with another question.  Or if in doubt, reply "That's interesting."    

Now, I need a shovel, because my house is at stage 3- DONE!
