Obstacles . . .


(http://www.inc.com/kevin-daum/4-tips-for-overcoming-obstacles.html)
1. Embrace Self-Awareness
If you don't see the obstacle or believe it's a hindrance, you'll never reach your goals, blaming everything and everyone but the person responsible. This is particularly obstructive to resolving Habitual Obstacles.

2. Use Time to Your Advantage
This is most important with External Obstacles. You must learn to manage your impatience and be ready when the smoke clears. The harder the obstacle, the more time it will take to overcome. Set a preliminary schedule with clear milestones so you can track forward or backward progress. This way you'll see the cumulative impact of miniscule change.

3. Commit to Focused Discipline
It's easy to get distracted with the present. Business people are just that--busy! There is always a fire to put out or a new critical opportunity to distract you. True discipline is about making yourself emotionally commit time and effort to your benefit regardless of external factors.

4. Engage Your Own Creativity
I like to create rhythm in my life so I can freely engage the creative part of my brain for problem solving. There's no better place to apply expansive thinking than on issues holding you back.

Sick. . .


(from http://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/chipotle-linked-e-coli-outbreak-jump-cases-expected-n455556)
". . . Health officials expect the number of people sickened by an E. coli outbreak linked to Chipotle restaurants in Washington state and Oregon to grow while they investigate the cause of the infection.
As of Friday, three people in the Portland area and 19 people in western Washington had become sick from E. coli. Seventeen of them had eaten at a Chipotle restaurant during the past few weeks. . . "

E. co·li
ē ˈkōlī/

Framed . . .


(from http://www.politico.com/story/2015/10/hillary-clinton-sexism-bernie-sanders-215375-with
MY insertions added)
". . . The once respectful Democratic primary has devolved into a slugfest about gender. . . " -artificially and NOT without intention on the part of the purported 'victim'- ". . . with Hillary Clinton surrogates expressing outrage over how Bernie Sanders is conducting his campaign — even calling for him to fire his staff over alleged sexist remarks. . . " -the operative word here being 'alleged'- ". . . And it’s sent a signal flare to Republicans, who have been reminded of the pitfalls of using the wrong language when taking on Clinton — and also of her campaign’s ability to turn it to her advantage. . ." -is this really what we want to see in our elections? ". . . (Clinton's people) said a recent Bloomberg Politics story that quoted Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver as joking that “we’re willing to consider her for vice president ... we’ll even interview her . . .How arrogant and sexist can you be? . . .”  -Arrogant?  Maybe. I must have missed the sexist part.  Did YOU hear the sexist part????- ". . . (this 'development' began) in the first Democratic debate earlier this month, when the Vermont senator said “all the shouting in the world” won’t fix the country’s systemic problem with gun violence — a comment Clinton and her allies have since interpreted as an implicitly sexist filleting of the former secretary of state. . ." -I must have missed the sexist part.  Did YOU hear the sexist part????- ". . . It also signals a widening gender gap between the candidates that could work in Clinton’s favor the more she looks like a strong woman under attack by a male opponent. . . " -A woman, granted. I think more disingenuous is more appropriate than STRONG.-I must have missed the sexist part.

Greetings . . .

. . . Johnny . . .

Greetings Johnny,
What a perfect realization of OC Ditty, I really enjoyed it with the use of the archival footage, which was very effective in conveying that good summer vibe. Fu-Man Bill's video productions could not be better, what a great project.
Thanks from sending the video
See Ya
Weasz

Two . . .

. . . things. . .


. . . that I think many people don't fully examine when they're listening to conservative candidates speak are:

1.  Do you want to COMPLETELY neglect anyone (or everyone) in society who are not YOU or your immediate family?

2.  Although the size of the national debt is incomprehensible to you (as it well is to me), do you really think that when these people talk about lower TAXES that they really intend to lower YOUR taxes?
