A quick explanation regarding the accountability tracker. I intend to keep myself accountable to loosing weight by the new tracker. Each week I will weigh myself and put either the increase or decrease from my starting point on the tracker. Hopefully, this will make me decide to make healthy choices that my children can see as they grow up.
Okay...why are today's reflections questionable? Hmmm...maybe it's because I ONLY SLEPT FOR 10 MINUTES LAST NIGHT!!!! So, yes, I'm a bit slow and foggy right now.
Reflections:
1. I'm in the business of risk and I really like this quote: The day finally came when the risk to remain tight in the bud became greater than the risk to blossom.
Many people in my business view risk as something that needs to be mitigated or protected against. That's very true, but taking great risks can and should also reap great rewards. Just make sure that you've planned for the possibility of failure.
2. Toda porfía es demasiada, cuando no se espera de ella sacar algún provecho.-- All stubborness is exaggerated if no advantage can come of it.
I see plenty of truth in this!
3. We all know that Art is not truth. Art is a lie that makes us realize truth, at least the truth that is given us to understand. The artist must know the manner whereby to convince others of the truthfulness of his lies. Pablo Picasso
I'm staring at a reproduction of Picasso's "El Viejo Guitarrista" ("The Old Guitarrist"), and it sure seems like the truth regarding the poor and downtrodden. Yet, maybe it lies by only telling one part of the story...the side that we too often don't want to see, or the "truth" that Pablo saw.
