Day 2296: Actions, Priorities and People

Gandhi was right actions express priorities – that’s what I have realized.

It’s 10: 31 AM on day 2296 of my journey towards independence and I managed to -pray, read Matthew 2: 11-12 and work on my 25 Smiles Campaign – yesterday Joubert Botha donated $50 and Tony Seifart also donated $50 (thanks guys 🙂 ) which brings the total raised to $9 461.04 only $3 038.96 more to raise to reach my second goal of raising $12 500 for Smile Train before Jan 10 2017 (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far ).

Today making a phone call to someone I realized that people will always and forever matter more to me than money, power, prestige or things.

Day 2087: Action and Priorities

“Action expresses priorities.” – Mahatma Gandhi

It’s 12 : 36 PM on day 2087 of my journey towards independence and I managed to pray, read 2 Corinthians 12:1-10, have breakfast, learn one new thing – This is evidence that humans are related to every other species on Earth. The genes of organisms that look very different are surprisingly similar. For example, human DNA sequences are over 95% identical to chimpanzee sequences and around 50% identical to banana sequences. – and work on my 25 Smiles Campaign – raised $5 774 only $476 more to raise before Jan 10 2017 (SO SO SO GRATEFUL to everyone who has supported this campaign so far 🙂 ),

This morning I realized that I’m not a priority to myself I’m supposed to do stretches daily (to keep my tendons the right length) but I don’t and I’m really starting to feel its effects my legs are stiff and I feel pain in the back of my knee hopefully when I start doing my exercises again things will get back to normal (my normal anyway).

Day 1744: Focus on what’s important

2 Replies

I can’t make other people focus on what’s important all I can do is focus on what’s important– that’s what I realized yesterday.

It’s 12 : 05 PM on day 1744 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Habakkuk 2, publish my Disability of the Day feature, learn one new thing –Unlike other sea turtles, hawksbills are specialist eaters. They avoid deep waters and stick to coastlines where sponges—their preferred food—are abundant. – feed myself peanut butter and banana sandwich for breakfast, promote my Educate Generations campaign – $3 145 raised so far – and hang out with my sister.

Yesterday after my rant about the pointless and crass things some people post on social media I realized that I can’t make other people focus on what’s important all I can do is focus on what’s important.

Day 1741: Life and Time

No matter how much time we save by doing things in advance we will never do the things we want to do unless they are a priority – that’s what I realized yesterday.

It’s 12 : 00 PM on day 1741 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth, pray, read Nahum 2, publish my Disability of the Day feature, feed myself Puri and chicken curry for breakfast, learn one new thing –A blue moon is a second full moon in a calendar month. Each year, the moon completes its final cycle about 11 days before the Earth finishes its orbit around the sun. These days add up, and every two and a half years or so, there is an extra full moon – go pick my sister up at the airport , promote my Educate Generations campaign – $3 145 raised so far 🙂 – and hang out with family..

Yesterday I realized that no matter how much time we save by doing things in advance we will never do the things we want to do unless they are a priority I always do most of my work in advance so I can use my free time to read but often I just end up doing more work during my free time there’s so much to do and only twenty-four hours in a day I feel like a hamster on a wheel I just hope to finish reading Animal Farm before the end of 2015.

Family, health and living a life of meaning are the most important things in life everything else is extra– that’s what I realized yesterday.

It’s 9: 51 PM on day 1538 of my journey towards independence and I’ve managed to brush my teeth and go visit my dad’s cousin, go to the Wild Coast arcade with my brother and go visit my parents’ friends.

Yesterday after spending some time with my family I realized family, health and living a life of meaning are the most important things in life everything else is extra. Do you have your priorities straight?
