trash in and trash out.

One of my friends Steve sent me an email with things that were supposed to be challenging my mind. At this point in my.life I would rather focus on positive things and things that focus my actions on giving. My job and my life already exhaust me I don't to be debating this or that. It is thoughts and energy that could be directed on streamlining my clothes cleaning process. Right now my laundry situation is a bit out of control. I need to get some loads done on Sunday. I am watching Paul Pierce score 24 points on the Doug Collins coached 76ers. Come on Doug, Pierce is 56 years old. Your teams defense sucks pig dicks. I haven't wrote about skc for awhile. They don't have the fire power up top.to be top of the table, but they are still good. Julio Ceaser, Espinoza and Harrington are leaving the team... Matt beasler. is staying with SKC. He is defending player of the year and he has wrote more #1 hits than Neil Diamond. Kei Kamara Zusi Saad Teal Bunburry CJ Sapong Uri Spanish Guy Aurellian Collin Chance Meyers Nagamura Larry Olum should be back. MAYBE WITH THE GALAXY LOSING DONOVAN AND BECKHAM SKF CAN WIN IT ALL????

Same Stuff different day

I hear "Same stuff different day" sometimes. It is in a negative fashion sometimes. To me I think that saying describes greatness. Consistency in my life has been a real reason I have grown. I don't care what naysayers say, I don't care what I have to do, I don't care I am feeling. I have tasks to get done, and growth to be had. I will keep growing, pushing, and changing my life. It is weird how that solid foundation of work has made people attracted to me more. People will be like bla bla bla I can't do this this weekend and that. I will tell them cool..because I know in my mind I have goals of working to clean my apartment, listen to Anthony Robbins tapes, work on my nba2k12 character. I have plenty of things that I am driven to do and the outside world isn't going to stop me. Of course you got to be flexible, but in the main sense you really have to know who you are and what you need to do. Work is the key to success. Onto this weekend. I have the KU game on Saturday and I will probably just be working to become better in between there. I have to get coffee on Sunday, but everything else is up in the air. If I am stuck on what to do I usually go to the Plaza just because there is coffee and random stuff to do there.


Random stuff. Art fair people have to wear black, there is a perubian drink called a matte, David Glass is a cheap old fart, Kobe Bryant scores a ton of points, Harrington from SKC is going to Portland and Roger Espinoza is going to Wigan in the EPL.

Wednesday

Wednesday was pretty good. People always text stuff and try to get me off task. Now if it is Byrd or V-Foundation I will gladly exchange stats about Caron Butler and the L.A. Clippers, but if it is from people just being people. I got no time for that. One part of getting better and better is you have to not let other people get you off your main task. I did a good job not getting involved. I hid my phone. I said a quick prayer. "God direct my thinking" I then had to put aside my sick brain for a second. I know me...My brain loves drama and excitement. It craves wild ass texts and situations, but that is not what a person who is good at their job does. So I told myself. I don't care how boring or painful it is. I am going to get back to my boring task, because that is what an Adult Male does. So I went back to work and it was pretty painful and wasn't fun. I know from reading that is how you get the job done though. You focus in on small tasks over and over and over. Then you make it rain money!!! I told "The Elder Statesman" about the situation because I wanted to reinforce how important it is not to get caught up in a texting situation when you have to stay on your main purpose. My purpose is always the same "Be of service in whatever situation you are in" Speaking of being of service...I was in the car the other day and I had high anxiety...and I prayed to God "Help me be of service" The answer that came down was "Why don't you watch the road and not run into anyone, that might be of some service " So that just proves anywhere anytime you can always be of service and it provides you an activity to keep off of bad stuff like getting aids or Shawn Marion's Jump shot.

I am going to provide you this next information because the younger generation has to know this. Dating is dead...the new school is going to be you get an instant date. You walk around and if you find girl you see if she sends you signals and you sit down and get a 15 minute date then. Then you can get a day 2 later. If she is making solid eye contact and playing with her hair go for a kiss fast as possible. See if she likes you or not. If she pulls away laugh as hard as you can and keep moving forward. I have found that if you get a fast kiss then it is on, if she pulls away it's on, if she throws tabasco in your eyes. It's really on. This was a break through in my life because I am funny and random so I can't tell if a girl is laughing because she is into me or because I am funny. Now going for the kiss early sets the record straight. It's always on....Everyday in everyway I am getting better and better. Later.


Random things

Girls: Ray you dress like you just buried a dead body. How many bodies do yo think you could bury in a day?
Ray: Depends if they are kids...

accepting some boredom

One of the secrets to life is how to handle boredom. I struggle with doing the right things when I am bored. I understand that boredom is a chance to take correct action and be productive. I strive to always add to the stream of life and not take from it. Sometimes though you are just in a situation like riding in a car or something where you are just going to be bored. I take the time to focus in on the dreams I have and where I am going. Then I repeat those thoughts until I get tired of them. That way it keeps me focused and it doesn't allow my head to go to situations that are not based in reality. I try to also focus in on what can I do better. Even in the moment, better posture, a smile, whatever it maybe. Also sometimes a big stride for a successful life is just not making things worse. Life is a grind and not every moment is a trophy raising experience, but to raise some trophy's you have to put in hard work. Some of that hard work is dealing with boredom. Work is the key to success. Yesterday I did as much as I could and I found myself just staring at the clock at the end of the night. I did my best to focus on NBA games and the Mizzou games. They were really blasting me with excitement, but I tried my best to focus in. I know there are days like that where it isn't exciting, but I do my best to make them fun and not do something dumb by buying crap off of amazon that I don't need. I also try to amuse myself so I don't turn to food for entertainment. So all in all I am working hard and I am clearing out all I can do to have a fun and successful life. MIZZOU...CHRIS HUMPHRIES...OKC THUNDER....

Tuesday

I guess the Mission lighting festival went well. I didn't go but I heard there was a Rocket Powered Santa, Jesus, and fireworks. That sounds about right for the midwest. Surprised Larry The Cable guy didn't flip the switch yelling Git-R-Dun to kick the whole shindig off. Redskins won yesterday. RGIII is beasting. In my growing development I have discovered that if you have any doubt in your mind if you went as far as you could go, you could have cone further....period. One more task, one more conversation, the extra mile. I try not to beat myself up if I didn't go that far, but I like to know when I am pushing the limits or not. I want my conversations to get better. I want my work to get better. I want to be healthier. I want a better life. I also love that little bit extra at the end of your day when you think you can't do one more task, but you say...no way man...I ain't quitting. That is not what a person from St. Joseph does. That ain't then way a Griffon works. Then you go out and you get yourself some success.

Peace out Andy Reid

Vick was a bad signing, Andy Reid can't eat a proper diet let along manage a football team. Kick rocks Reid. Nice win for the Chiefs yesterday. They did their best and it turned out well for them. Jamaal Charles is the greatest running back for the Chiefs ever. Adrian Peterson is beasting. Andrew Luck is off the chain. Lakers are not good early on, and Greg Zurline is a griffon who is beasting for the Lions. I had a good weekend of watching football. The Ravens vs. Steelers game was a slugfest. During all the football watching I was able to get a load of laundry done. So that is good as well. Here comes Monday. I vow to stay focus on my goals. I vow to grow. I vow to go out and get me some success.

Fun week

This week was one of the more fun weeks I have had for awhile. KU game on Monday was off the chain and Friday and Saturday were fun as well. I played Video games around the plaza area for most of the weekend seeing the great lights and great people. With it being nice out it reminded me of New York. The Plaza park was packed and so was the plaza itself. I ran into Seth Sinovic and Chance Meyers at a local Disco. I didn't bug them but they looked in shape. Chance Meyers had a mustache. I didn't bug them because well they are 5 years younger than me and they are probably waiting for some gambling or lady action. Not guy with a hoodie on action. Mo West lost but they made giant strides to get better. They will be a good team as long as Jerry Partridge is there. This team had great weapons all around. Next year Raphael Spencer is going to get carries at RB and look out. He won't be as good as Michael Hill cause Michael was beasting all season, but Raphael will be good. I mean look at him. He has a kick ass name. As for as me growing as a person I think the thing to remember is that if you have a boring spot in your weekend try to say something over and over that is positive and that is about your goals. Then do some jumping jacks or stretch. You have to get positive momentum going. What is at rest stays at rest so if you are going to sit there like the worlds most boring person you tend to stay there. So it is my job to get up and start getting some positive vibes and get the blood pumping. It is my life and I want the most fun as possible. This next work week is going to be challenging as ususal, but as long as I am willing to accept the pain, frustration, and put forth the blood sweat and tears, I will get the job done. If at anytime I am not willing to do those things then I will fail. I am always my worst enemy because I want to quit and feel sorry for myself, but my job is to keep going, keep pushing, if quit for awhile it is get back up and move forward.
