Dear Self

Stop thinking your thoughts and words are superior to your wife’s when you’re engaged in a conversation with her—danget! Is it that obvious?

Yes, it is that obvious. When was the last time you listened to her talk without coaching yourself how to listen and agree without interrupting? You can knock that ish off now. Considering you just recently began teaching yourself how to embrace the realization of how stupid you were yesterday (just yesterday), suggests that, today, only 24 hours later, your words and opinions aren’t superior to hers or anyone else’s—get over yourself! You already talk the world of her, now listen to her world when she talks. You know more about nothing than you do everything.

Open up your #bible again, you’re going on three months without reading a single wOrd—danget! Is it that obvious?

Yes, it is that obvious. Your earbuds quit working three months ago so you haven’t been plugging in the wOrd when you train. You’re in a different country now, living your #life, look at you—a new gym every month! You have food and shelter, you’re happy, you’re #blessed—what you are not is listening to the wOrd—train your heart! How can you find bike trails and exercise joints through challenging language barriers and navigation difficulties and pass on every pair of earbuds you see in plain sight at every market? Don’t forget to exercise your heart. If you’re not listening to the word, what are you listening to? You’re rusty—get a pair of earbuds.

Take the GoPro and iPad out of the backpack, plug them into each other and figure it out—danget! Is it that obvious?

Yes, it is that obvious. You got all of the gear you thought you would need to document your travels—to document your wife’s cooking. You used it for one drawing before stuffing it all back inside the box and for what? You’re seeing more and more people on #steemit using the same equipment and doing the same thing, you’re procrastinating! If they’re doing it, it’s not impossible, they’ve even extended their hand to you and recommended applications for editing—figure it the F out! Film your underwater adventures, the bike rides, everything. Quit talking about it and do it—learn how to use the gear you had to have.

I’ll just put myself on blast then. I never hesitate with anyone else, maybe calling me out like this will work. Eh, @dandays, this is your tune-up calling.
