The Sunset
Life changes fast. And yet the beauty of a sunset is that the sunrise can’t start without it. Day becomes night and night becomes a new day. A curve - six hours to the top then six hours to the rest, then six hours to reflect before we start again in six hours. It has for more than six thousand years of recorded history. It will happen again today. You can count on it.

What if we learned to temper our vision just a little bit. To look around and seek the better parts of any situation. To compose a picture truly worth a hundred, or a thousand, words. It’s important to carefully compose our contribution each day. In a conversation. In a class. In an electronic connection. Bruce Lee once said, "A quick temper will make a fool of you soon enough." Perhaps a tempered vision can make the good in each of us popular again.
You are Your Best Leader
We don’t have to wait for others - to agree, to decide, to act - to elect our own good day. There will be plenty of big, scary things we can't control. Yet the most likely things to happen are entirely of our own making. What’s more, we are pretty good at defying the odds - growing when others decide to recede, speeding up when others slow down, accomplishing when others quit.

Why Can't We Have One-Minute Abs?
Nowadays, we like things fast: food, cars, cashless-transactions. We break speed limits, double computing capacity and tolerate the “rolling-stop” at intersections. Direct deposit, fast lane, early boarding, instant download, delivery by drone. Good things come to those who won’t wait, right? Not always.
