That lesson was put so well! I have been thinking about how it’s hard to get 100% out of myself since I’m interested in so many things (I won’t bore you with the list). The important thing is that I have to keep in mind that the results are much better when I am focused on the task at hand.
BTW, I passed along the 7×7 Link Award to you. Check it out and pass it along if you can! http://wishiwerethere7.wordpress.com/2012/01/05/and-the-winner-is-me/

I give you a lot of credit for being able to focus your energies on one thing only. It’s not always easy to do this, at work or in any other part of life. I aspire to it.

But screaming’s kind of fun sometimes, isn’t it? I agree with doing things 100% most of the time…but there’s nothing wrong with throwing a little bit of silly in now and then. That said, while the screaming might have been fun for the group doing the screaming…it must have been ANNOYING for people around them. Ha!

Nice scooter!!! I cant think of a most exciting recent purchase.. I havent really purchased anything “recently” but I guess Id say my bicycle.

Ive heard something similar in response to 5Ks and people “sprinting” at the end.. I always hear others say that if they had that much energy at the end then they did not push themselves hard enough.. So recently when a friend who has been running low 10s and high 9s ran a PR mile of 7:something and said he even had enough energy to sprint at the end I instantly thought something similar.. “If you had enough energy to sprint at the end then you didnt push yourself hard enough” sometimes though I dont think its always about pushing yourself..

I love your scooter! I got a vitamix – not as exciting as yours but still pretty cool.
