RE: F*cking Up a Lot Less

in #story • 3 years ago

"We are what we repeatedly do." I must confess that I am not a person of many habits, but the ones I have, do me a lot of good. Perhaps one habit I should get back into is exercise. I would like to get back to my exercise routine. I remember I once had two brothers as students. One was very intelligent, brilliant; but the other had a hard time understanding and passing exams. However, the bright boy was very scattered, lazy; and the one who had a hard time being good, was very disciplined. He had a really incredible study routine. My surprise was when I found out that the not-so-smart boy had graduated before the other one. In the end, we don't achieve things because we can, but because we want to. Excellence is not an act but a habit. Greetings, my friend.

Your story about your students is such a poignant example of what I was talking about! I'm just the opposite, I'm probably a little too regimented in my routines/habits. As I get older, especially with traveling so much, it's relaxed me a little in regards to this. I don't get too discombobulated if my routine is disrupted anymore. Thank you, and I hope you have a wonderful weekend, Nancy!

Likewise Eric. I forgot to tell you that the colors in those images are so beautiful, even though I've never experienced autumn, I think I love it. Regards

Thanks! A trip to the New England states would be great if you'd like to experience autumn. I think Amtrack has a route where you can view all the fall colors.
