Don’t Expect Perfection

Too many ruin their holidays and weeks by expecting perfection. 

Did you get everything you wanted? Of course not.
Were your family and friends annoying? Of course, they are human. Love them anyway.
Were your kids perfect? If so, bottle it and sell for millions.
Were you annoying? Forgive yourself and move on.
Your health or fitness perfect? Please getting over Covid here and stuck with age.
Was work perfect? Please get up off the floor and laugh up here with us.

"Life is what happens to us when we are making other plans" - Thomas la Mance

Be human. Laugh, love, learn and carry on.

Faith and 20 years


On Good Friday it dawns on me it has been 20 years since returning to attending church regularly at 40. My life changed dramatically.

I usually write about business, careers or leadership. Something much easier to define than Faith. Truthfully is More Feelings than Logic. This is an engineer/scientist/businessman speaking. We all get only a little understanding of the world God created, and have to share it with others. We have to learn more from each other.

Joined fellowships, charismatic services, small groups, bible studies, healings, men’s retreats, made friends, and had small glimpses of God in action.

Met wonderful people every year who share their lives. Watched their babies become toddlers, become precious children, become preteens, becomes talented teenagers, become college students, and become wonderful adults.

Went from a shy introvert to a noisy one who networks. Became more open to others pain, and try to share understanding with compassion. Have volunteered and grown, not from being outstanding. Mostly washing dishes, serving coffee and putting away tables and folding chairs. So rewarding.

Just completed an Alpha Course where learned more about faith, and the mysteries in it like the Holy Spirit. Alpha is for people beginning to explore, doubters, those fallen away, people with struggles, even atheists trying to prove it is not true. Highly recommend you try it. 

I welcome anyone who would like to join me. The change in your life is really worth it. Blessing and Peace to all.

Make a Good 2017


You make any resolutions? Most people don't, but wish for a better situation. Resolutions are good for focus, but not necessary for your good year.

Do the little things for 2017. It is not having a grand vision. Success comes with consistent actions.
  • Can you get to bed a few minutes earlier, and get enough sleep?
  • Are you walking or going to gym more often?
  • Have you cut down on portions?
  • Avoiding unnecessary carbs or snacks?
  • Eating more veggies?
  • Brush and floss your teeth?
No crash diet, but each action above will contribute to better health and less weight.

Don’t make a resolution. Take action over & over. 
  • Remember what you were grateful for yesterday first thing in morning. 
  • Start projects & chores before the last minute. 
  • Leave 10 minutes earlier. 
  • Write down tasks for later.
Being less stressed leads to a happy 2017.
