@americanhodl8 Now I understand the feelings of kinsmanship with @americanhodl8

RIP Mitch

Even as we grow into adulthood, we can quickly revert back to a child in Mom’s arms. I’ll never know what she’s doing back there, but I do know if I’m hungry or in need the meatloaf will be ready!

Thank you Mom. I love you!

[Matt McCraney @MattBear51]

Ma! The meatloaf….WE WANT IT NOW!

For 9 months you give up your physical autonomy, you get sick, your hormones change and your body transforms into on oddly-beautiful cocoon! We kick, we roll, we demand certain foods, we grow heavier and it’s only just the beginning.

But somehow we unconsciously know. A mother’s sacrificial love is both universal and unique. It is the driving force of humanity.

@JoshWomack Can’t count the number of times everyone’s life was better when values/expectations match.

I’m in the service industry…DO NOT chase everybody! Chase the ones you can help and are a fit.

DO NOT chase just $$, rather chase those with a shared vision….the ones you can help!

@tomaspueyo The real answer is the Comanches

I asked Chat GPT to write a Mitch Hedberg joke inspired by @CrossFit I don’t think it could be more perfect 🤣🤣🤣

A desperation wrap up trying to prevent a ball carrier from gaining extra yards. There isnt one player saying “hey I’m about to drop my weight on his ankle when I tackle him”. Defense is Hard enough with the rules about roughing the QB and interference. This would be overkill

Whether tomorrows weather is sunny or cold, let go things outside your control! And stop blaming Phil, he's just a groundhog who wakes up, and goes looking for breakfast.

[Matt McCraney @MattBear51]

Groundhog’s Day. Also, my Granny’s Birthday. Granny would have been 88 today. On Thanksgiving Day 2014, Granny Rubye fell and broke her hip with me nearby. I often felt I could and should have anticipated or been quicker to catch her fall.

Responsibility is a repercussion of ownership/control. Claiming responsibility for something outside of my control is actually a self-important, ego-trip, on my high horse.

Dear {YourName},

Do the work NOW! And I’ll be thankful and happy! 😃

Over complication sets you up for failure and/or self-sabotage. Don’t be Dumb, be simple.

Simple Food for Thought

Prioritize Proteins

Controlled Carbohydrates
If quality is ⬇️
quantity probably ⬆️
If quality ⬆️
quantity probably ⬇️

Figure your Fats - Treasure first-rate fats, but still measure!!

[Matt McCraney @MattBear51]

In most things, simple = better.
Simple ≠ Easy
Therefore Better ≠ Easy

The Good News….
When the Simple gets x Hard
Apply the substitution property and we get

Better x Better = YOU Better Squared
Keep It Simple Stupid 😘

No one has your circumstances.
No one has your genetics.
No one has your mind-soul lived experience.
No one is YOU.

YOU are like no one!
YOU control your mind and soul!
YOU control your response to unmovable obstacles!
YOU are > your circumstances!
