Taking my own advice in the WWW

-
And by WWW I mean wild wild west. You've probably often seen written here the phrase, "Action is the best response to misfortune." and I still feel that to be true. I also try to heed my own advice, like any good guru.

Well with not getting into the college class I wanted, work hours dropping off, breaking a tooth out of my mouth I had definitely felt like I'd experienced some misfortune. How to help my attitude?

ACTION!

I lifted weights hard two nights in a row.
I went surfing.
I went on a 3 hour hike. (see the Ansel Rowdy pics below)
I practiced drawing and reloading for my competition this weekend.
I did laundry, made the bed, cleaned the kitchen.
I reorganized all my video and photo equipment.
I did yard work in detail.
I washed my motorcycle.
I made bracelets out of stainless steel wire.
And doing silly stuff like this....


There you have my 4-day action response. What time is it for you? Time for some action!

    I think you should make a post about the "ABC's of San Diego", sounds kinda fun. Maybe I'll do one myself as well!

    I do need to get to some action. I've lost my yoga routine with the move and its driving me crazy. Although moving is a good way to keep my mind off the stupid guy I was dating.

The housekeeper said today I look like a gangster or mafioso. Do you agree? So I posted on FB a picture of my agility ladder and talked about how I use it for training for shooting. Most people kind of questioned it or dismissed it outright. Then I see a famous person posts a video of him today on FB using one and everyone thinks it's a great new idea. This actually makes me kinda angry. I don't like being dismissed or marginalized because my thoughts and ideas come from me, and not from someone "famous". Cause you know what, he isn't any better or smarter than I am. In any way. And just like MM93 grew up to take down VR46 I'm gonna do the same to all those who are at the top right now. Everyone is gonna know it and see it. Then there will be no doubting.
