2025: So What If The Words Ain't Rhyming?

 

Today, Wednesday, February 5, 2025, was a day of another first for me. Today, I participated in a rite of passage for all of us that have achieved a certain age. A medical procedure that while is considered invasive is does not feel like it. Well, after the procedure it felt like it was over before it started.

The preparation leading up to this life event, now that was something that felt was never going to end. Before anybody tells you drinking a gallon of laxative over the course of several hours is the most difficult part of a colonoscopy, they are right!

It was most certainly the most dreaded part of the process, I heard horror stories about the 1 Gallon of Liquid Hell and the "immediate" reactions. For the grossly curious, I started after I finished the gallon. 

So what does this have to with anything?

It has everything to do with everything, everywhere.  It has to do with the obvious: Everyone that can should have a colonoscopy. Consider it part of being proactive when it comes to your health.

It is also a good test of how your digestive system is working. Again, being proactive.

Again, so what does this have to with anything?

Take Care of Yourself and Be Proactive!

The Leadership Minute #15 Know Yourself and Seek Self-Improvement

The premise behind this leadership principle is look deep inside yourself. Look for what you are and what you are not. Also look for what you know and don’t know. The trick behind knowing yourself and seeking self-improvement is to be honest with yourself, otherwise why bother?

People will follow someone who is constantly evaluating and checking himself. Someone that is constantly seeking self improvement even if it means that in order to be improving herself she must improve the lives of others.

No matter how you look at it Know yourself, once you have identified the areas that you are lacking then work on those. But don’t just stop there. Work on everything because no matter what some people think or tell you there is always room for improvement in EVERYTHING.

Thank you,
David Guerra
