WEIGHT LIFTING FOR MENTAL HEALTH

October 25, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Weight lifting is for everyone, more or less, weight-wise. Lifting is something you do every day whether you log it as such, or not. I’m a fan of trying to tell the difference between lifters and non-lifters.

COACHING STAFF FOR THE WORLDWIDE WIN

October 24, 2024 by David Gillaspie

A coaching staff starts at the top with the head coach. From there it’s a bunch of coaches for the specialties, the offense, defense, special teams, quarterbacks, the works. The smart head coach hires people who are qualified and ready to go. How can they tell who they want?

October 23, 2024 by David Gillaspie

You hear ‘be mindful’ and what do you think? I hear it and think, ‘watch your step around this one.’ Is there more?

GOOD TWITTER, BAD X?

October 22, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Good twitter was a great scroll. Celebrities and famous names shared their interests, causes, and struggles. They made themselves look almost normal, which was nice. Not so nice?

LESSON LEARNED, BUT WHICH ONE? TRENDS

October 20, 2024 by David Gillaspie

A lesson learned ought to last a lifetime. What has lasted a lifetime: riding a bike, tying shoes. What should last a lifetime: That one perfect haircut, true love, your dog. In most cases we adjust the timeline.

LONG WAY TO THE TOP FOR OREGON DUCKS

October 19, 2024 by David Gillaspie

The long way to the top started with Ohio State where the Oregon put one duck foot in front of another until the end. It wasn’t the usual end for games like this. Ohio State had it wrapped up and ready for delivery with ten seconds to go, then six seconds. One thing led to […]

MODERN ELDERS SEEK AUDIENCE WITH YOUTHS

October 18, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Modern elders want to be heard by someone. They have much to impart to the rising generations, but there’s a problem. Can the ‘Me Generation’ ever get over itself enough to make sense? Will young people ever trust those who said never trust anyone over thirty?

THE WAY YOU DO ANYTHING IS THE WAY YOU DO EVERYTHING

October 17, 2024 by David Gillaspie

Agree or disagree, but the way you do anything explains a lot. If you have an identity crisis do a quick review of the past day to see who you are. What you did yesterday is who you are today. Actions speak louder than words, so what did you do yesterday?

BIG DISAPPOINTMENTS, BECAUSE THERE’S MORE THAN ONE

October 16, 2024 by David Gillaspie

My big disappointments are what come up first in a life review. “Dang, that could have worked out better.” Following that track doesn’t lead to a very good review. This post will explain how to work it out better for both baby boomers and the new biggest generation of Millennials. Go big, or go home, […]
