Highlights for the week
The theme of this week: work on your goals, stay disciplined, keep your promises, and honor your values .. this will lead to character and integrity Random text
MONDAY
Affirmation: GET AWAY TO THE ROCKAWAYS
Nothing got done as we (family and I) spent the entire day out at Far Rockaway. On the minus - everything is behind. On the plus - got to see a whale.
REBUILD YOUR LIFE!! Don't wish it were easy, wish you were better
TUESDAY
Affirmation: EVERY SUNRISE IS A NEW OPPORTUNITY FOR CHANGE
Wake up! WAKE UP TO YOUR PURPOSE! Decide to start new. New choices. New ideas. New goals.
Keep your promises to yourself. No slipping, even when temptation is the itch you need to scratch. Growth is a choice. Rebuild your mindset!!
You are not trapped by yesterday's mistakes. Take reaponsibility and say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
WEDNESDAY
Affirmation: ACT AS IF NOTHING MATTERS ... BECAUSE IN THE GRAND SCHEME OF THINGS ... IT DOESN'T - A. Watts
It is we who put up barriers to being, assigning purpose to everything; being too strict instead if playing.
wu wei is the art of grasping more by relaxing. The tighter you close your fist, the less you hold. Only by letting go will you be able attain more.
The paradox of keeping calm is that the less you chase purpose, the easier it will find you. Don't cling to love, instead let it be on its own.
Stop clutching to perfection .. it leads to frustration.
THURSDAY
Affirmation: WHEN WE LET GO OF TRYING TO MATTER THEN WILL WE BEGIN TO SHINE - A. WATTS
The whole point of the music of life is not the prefection of the notes, but enjoyment of the melody.
FRIDAY
Affirmation: NEW MONTH, NEW YOU
The moment you take ownership of who you are and who you want to become, releasing the tight grip on identity leads to greater potential. Like an archer who draws the bow back. When you let go of all your old issues and negative self-talk, then and only then can you truly find yourself propelled forward.
What We’re Grateful For

- Grateful for every day. Each is a blessing.

What We Longed For
- A great job at Mandiant (google) doing the thing. Otherwise, I'm still waiting to find my passion! [UPDATE] Not selected for the job .. which is what I came to expect. You miss 100% of the shots you don't take. I applied to TrustedSec, another solid fit.
What We Loathed
- 2026 Job Market and the fact we have a failed leader that won't fix it.
