MFC - Days 34 - 38

Days 34 - 38 - Wow, I've missed posting a few days.  Things have been pretty busy which is really no excuse but that's all I've got.  I've been getting a lot of reading and listening to cds in.  I really need to set some time aside to post and reflect.

MFC - Days 31, 32, & 33

Days 31, 32, & 33 - I had an employee at my job today complain because he wasn't being allowed to fix stuff during his training period.  I asked him if he ever saw "Karate Kid" and explained to him that just as Daniel had to "wax on, wax off" for a period of time so that he could learn the principles before putting it together to fight, he also was learning the principles prior to letting him fix anything without supervision.  I thought it was clever.  I don't think he'll last long.

MFC - Day 30

Day 30 - Today I interviewed a few people to work for the park.  I am always amazed at how many applicants have no idea where they are going in life.  I recall one applicant that was in his 3rd year of college and when I asked him what type of job he hoped to get with his degree; he responded "I don't even know what jobs are available for someone with my degree."  I get this response quite often and I am amazed that someone would go to college just to go to college.  It seems like very few actually have a plan for their future.  I am great full for the things I have learned in LIFE and The Mental Fitness Challenge to put me on track to living the life I always wanted.

MFC - Days 27, 28, & 29

Days 27, 28, & 29 - It's been pretty busy and I haven't been near a computer so I it's been hard to post the past few days.  Yesterday was great!  I went for another bike ride, went to the beach and read, and hung out with some friends.  I couldn't help myself from laughing at the beach while I was reading - was I working out at the beach?  I think a few people may have found it odd that I was highlighting in the book I was reading.

MFC - Day 25 & 26

Day 25 & 26 - Work has really been sucking up a bunch of my time.  I've worked a little over 70 hours so far this week with 2 days yet to go.  I've been able to listen to cds regularly, but reading has been difficult.  I'll be making up for that soon.  Sorry for the short posts, but I'm exhausted!
