Idyllic Life

By Abe Newmeyer, January 29, 2020

Progress & Getting BetterAdaptability & Change

The past week has been transformative on multiple fronts. First, resting in first class accommodations while travelling was beneficial. Secondly, camaraderie with someone in my age and peer group offers something I hadn’t been receiving since arriving in the country. Next, great travelling and having a “guys trip.” Lastly, best(at this point) to have an ideal travel companion, Ronnie.

A planned two day excursion turned into about a week in three different cities plus some valuable life lessons.

It’s been said, “When a flower doesn’t bloom you don’t change the flower rather, its environment.” The same can be said of us. From the people I associate with to the places I live and the books I read, all those things and others contribute to my growth.

Today, Wednesday, January 29, 2020, I am grateful that:

Experiential wisdom is manifesting in my life. It’s a challenge travelling this path alone. I’m not a victim nor do I believe in playing the “blame game” so I press forward, solidarity my companion, open to joining others temporarily on their journey.

Anthony afforded me and Ronnie the opportunity to come together once more. It’s incredible how things work out and seem to fall into place when others don’t.

Although enjoyable, this excursion was a violation of my time. I’ve got to be a better stewart of my time and finances. If I don’t value my time, no one else will.

How do you guard against time wasting?

How do you change your environ? When was the last time you changed your environment?

Whom do you value ahring time with? When was the last time you did so? Have you scheduled your next time together?
