@honfrsocmed@wennerstrom Oj, det landade fel. Jag skrev i all välmening då jag själv agerat bank åt stora bolag. Har inget med kön att göra. Hoppas du får en fin fortsatt kväll !
@honfrsocmed@wennerstrom Kolla ditt avtal med Bolaget bara, ofta har de reglerat i avtalet med dig att de betalar när de själva får betalt. Grisigt men varit med om det flertal ggr.
Gjorde en liten app medan Linnea var inlagd på sjukhuset efter Signes födsel.
Den heter Skattesmäll💥och räknar ut vad ens skatt kan bli efter förhandling mellan de rödgröna. Ibland vinner S, ibland vinner V och MP, men alldeles oavsett så förlorar du.
ICE officers stopped by our farm yesterday.
“We need to inspect your property for illegal aliens,” one of them said.
I replied, “Alright, but whatever you do, don’t go into that field over there.”
The officer in charge exploded.
“Mister, I have the authority of the federal government behind me!” he barked, reaching into his back pocket. He yanked out a badge and shoved it in my face. “See this fucking badge? This badge means I can go wherever I want on ANY land. No questions asked, no answers given. Am I clear? Do you understand?”
I nodded politely and said, “Be my guest.” Then I went back to my chores.
About ten minutes later, I heard screaming.
I looked up and saw six ICE agents running for their lives, being chased by my big, mean, old bull.
And with every step, that bull was closing in fast.
It looked like they were about to get gored for sure.
So I dropped my tools, ran over to the fence, and shouted at the top of my lungs:
“YOUR BADGE! SHOW HIM YOUR FUCKING BADGE!”
You have seen Teddy Roosevelt’s famous quote about the Man in the Arena. But have you really read it? Have you absorbed it?
“It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”
Soak it in.
“…there is no effort without error or shortcoming.”
“…if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat.”
My goal, this week and every week, is to keep you from becoming one of those cold and timid souls.
Sure, there might be less heartbreak, but there is also no joy in that life.
It’s a life that puts you on the sidelines.
You live in a constant state of mediocrity. Since a life without putting yourself into the arena doesn’t experience the lowest lows, it also cannot experience the highest highs. It’s a constant middle-ground, a life of “blah.”
It numbs you. It’s why people who never step into the arena themselves are always trying — and failing — to find joy in other people’s failures. They want to feel something, like they know the people in the arena do, but they aren’t willing to take the risk required to feel something real.
I don’t want any of you to live that middling, numb, mediocre life.
I want you to feel the highest highs. And for that, I need you to learn that you’ll also have to experience the lowest lows.
It might not seem fair that the same map can lead you to either brutal heartbreak or total greatness, but that’s life.
We saw it in the Super Bowl. Haters will call the Patriots losers.
But there are no real losers who play in the Super Bowl. I don’t mean that in the participation trophy sense, because I can’t stand the idea that everyone deserves a trophy. I mean that everybody who goes all out, who steps into that arena and gives everything, is a champion, even if they don’t deserve a trophy.
They have lived life fully, rejecting the numb mediocrity most people accept.
The only real losers are the ones who never leave the safety of the sidelines.
After these Olympics, Lindsey won’t go home with a medal. She will go home with the heart of a champion.
I hope she knows that she did a great public service for all of us.
She demonstrated that thriving means being comfortable on that razor’s edge of victory and defeat.
She reminded us that coming up short in a worthy cause beats becoming one of those cold and timid souls.
She showed us how to live, not just to exist. They don’t have a medal for that.
Life’s greatest wins live inside you.
My challenge to all of you this week comes in two parts, and one is easier than the other.
Let’s start with the easier one: don’t be a loser who hates from the sidelines. I have a feeling most of you can already check this one off, because this is the positive corner of the internet. But if you find yourself naysaying or enjoying other people’s failure, it’s the first sign that you are falling into that numb, cold, timid life. Stop it.
Now, the harder one. Take the risk. Put yourself out there. All of you have something you’ve shied away from, something where you thought about jumping into the arena but hesitated when you thought of the risk of failure. You might fail. But I promise you’ll find that even failure means a fuller life than the sidelines.
It’s time to start living.

Today is Yahel Sharabi’s birthday. She should have been celebrating with her family and friends, but she can't because she was murdered by Hamas on October 7th.
Yahel Sharabi will forever be 13.
