Smile…

A warm smile is the universal language of kindness-

Look what you can get away with…With just a genuine smile!


Happy Fathers Day!!!

A father is a banker provided by nature-

For the Women who laughed HERE!?!  We caught you red handed!!!

**A few videos and a few pictures.  What better way to  capture a father’s attention…**

Sherman made the terrible discovery that men make about their fathers sooner or later… that the man before him was not an aging father but a boy, a boy much like himself, a boy who grew up and had a child of his own and, as best he could, out of a sense of duty and, perhaps love, adopted a role called Being a Father so that his child would have something mythical and infinitely important: a Protector, who would keep a lid on all the chaotic and catastrophic possibilities of life.  -Tom Wolfe, The Bonfire of the Vanities

The Plan-

The Workout-

Fatherhood could alter men’s behavior

Notes:

Have a great day today Dad(s) of the inter-webz doing what you do best!


Second Breakfast Perspectiva

One of life’s most interesting reversals is average people thinking they are extraordinary, and extraordinary people thinking they are average-

Take a few minutes to watch the above video a couple of times.  Chelsie Memmel could rip your still beating heart out of your chest even with a torn labrum…Yup go ahead and watch the video again.

Now let’s watch how Chelsie gets on with the balance beam after an injury that would cripple Uncle Mo:

As you go about your morning drinking coconut water and applying kinesio tape like some first grader…Ask yourself: “What the hell am I doing?”

Johanna Quaas and Chelsie Memmel are truly inspiring individuals in our book.


Second Breakfast Inspiración

Nonstop; Dance; Keep Moving

“We should consider every day lost on which we have not danced at least once.” – Friedrich Nietzsche

One of my favourite Bruce Lee books is “The Art of Expressing The Human Body.”  That title speaks to me.  When I trail run, sprint, hit the heavy bag, play Chi Sau (sticking hands), dance or play with my children – I try to lose myself in order to gain myself.

I have to keep expressing my soul through different types of movements that seem to share a common thread.  I have to keep moving.  It’s in my nature.

What’s in your nature?
