Let’s try again: Put Up The Guardrails

Consistency. Discipline. Big words. Dangerous and scary words. As we travel life in general, we create a general plan and head in a direction. I think it flows a lot like a bowling alley hosting a party of 6-year olds. Put those guardrails up. Most of the time, the ball finds its way to the end of the alley and maybe takes down a couple pins. But, the ball may bounce back and forth off of those rails --- avoiding the gutter, taking extra time. Achieving some level of success.

There's one of the last things I ponder each day. The title of the blog says it all - Find Your Wins.

I can't pretend that I'm pitching a perfect game or swinging at life with one of the Yankees "Torpedo" bats (that'll be the next post).

I'm learning to ride the waves better, a constant battle inside the dome, for sure.

Making a (mostly) edible meal that I share with my girls. The conversations and laughs with them in the precious few minutes we get between their busy schedules. Walking the dog. And, doing a quality job nightly to entertain and inform the globe on our show.

Those are the rails.

Then, it's about how clean the rest of things flow in a day.

Sleep? Exercise? Diet? How much did LA traffic come back to punch me in the face?

When I lay my head down at night, I ponder the idea .... "Did I go 1-0 today?" ...

At least I tried.

When that alarm sounds, we get up and do it again.
