The Flight Path of Life

 

I fly aircraft for a living. Strangely enough, I have learned so much about life in general from all my years of doing this. There's ironically a lot of parallels that can be drawn between living your life and the art that is learning to fly things in the most skillful, professional, and efficient manner possible.

The Things That Don't Want YOU

Why do you continue to want the things that don't want you? What is wrong with you? I can't really sugar coat this one. You've gotta STOP doing this. There is no way that I can ration to you that this is any sort of OK, in any stage of your life, in any regard of your life. I don't care what rebuttal you have. Just...NO. NO NO NO. 

Who's in Charge of Your Happiness?

Have you ever stopped to contemplate who, or what, holds the key to you being happy? Sure, there are many things happening all around us in our lives that bring us happiness or make us feel a certain kind of way. And those are nice things. Beautiful things. But what happens to you when those circumstances change? Then what? Does your happiness go walking right out the door with the absence of whatever it was that brought you this joy?

Thinking V. Knowing What You Want

I've spent a lot of time these past few years really pondering some deep things about my life. I'd like to submit this thought to you today in hopes that it will jar your brain a little and at least make you take pause and contemplate a few things about your own life.

The Daily Battle

 

If you think that wars and battles are solely waged in the physical realm of our world on an occasional or temporary basis, think again. Make no mistake about it, there is a war going on every single day. This is the war taking place within your mind. A daily battle ensues each time you wake up and start your day. A war between the positive and negative. In every regard, a true showdown between good and evil.
