Wonder what to do with all this. Trying to adapt to new and exciting things.

The time is just about right.

Usually when I see a "dangerous curve" sign. I place both hand on the steering wheel. I also get a little bit excited, cause driving just became more entertaining. This is the time to pay attention, and proceed with temperance.

Sometimes life will throw you a sign just to see you are looking for it. We usually are so focused in one direction, that we miss the new possibility.

So here is your sign. It's going to get exciting, and you could wipe out the car. But the benefit will be amazing, just like the drive.

The things we want in life. Are but one decision away from being.

Go after what is going to challenge you, and make you grow. It doesn't need to be a big, and grand. It can be small and simple. Small things lead to big things.

Read books on the mindset you want to have. Develop cognitive skills, and personal courage. You are what you think, so think big, and take Small steps.

Sometimes you need to get away from it all. What if your job was not location based? The things one could do when income is not tied to a single building. Get out and explore the wonderful world in which we live.

Mindset

The mindset of a struggling person is one of struggle. It is set in reactionary processes. What's next, and what trouble am I about to find? Is usually a predominate thought when the service time hits.

So with that mindset in mind we prepare for whatever may come. In a kitchen setting we have foreknowledge. We know what we serve, and can accurately estimate how many we might serve. Thus we have created a reaction based in knowledge. Prepare for X amount of people.

How to overcome that reactionary mindset, and create a proactive mindset is my current struggle. I'm trying not to struggle, but let it be easy. I found some guides along the way, and have started to develop a mindset of causation. What my mind can imagine it can create.

Tired of the regular work that hasn't gotten you as far as you thought it would? Change the mind, and develop new skills, or adjust current skills to a new task. All of yourself will follow into the next phase.

Today is day two of my new morning routine. It consists of exercise, reading, writing, meditating, studying, and posting. I am committed to inevitable change. Now I am actively participating in the changes.

Slow cooked Pulled Pork Monty Cristo.

Usually it contains 5 elements. Sliced Ham, Sliced Turkey, a tart Jam, Swiss Cheese, and Bread. Then you cook it up with an egg batter, like French Toast. When finished cooking the toast, combine cheese and hot sliced meats on the toast, don't forget the Jam(Blackberry is best.) Wait for the cheese to melt and make it a sandwich. For the final plate dust with powdered sugar, and consume while hot.

This particular sandwich was hot pressed not egg battered. I combined the elements differently too. Using pulled pork in place of the ham, I used a honey smoked Sliced Turkey, and some Havarti Cheese. I used Blackberry Jam, and did not add powdered sugar.

It was really good!

When life opens a door. It up to us to walk through it. Experimentation is the way of life. Find new flavors, and make some deliciousness out this amazing thing called life.

When putting together a recipe. You first start with water, fire, and the item to be cooked. So if your first ingredient is not the best tasting. Then your food will not be as good as it could be.

This journey is about the water. And I want to share with you how I have created health sustaining menus just by using a better water source.

This is something I struggle with occasionally. Letting the outside world overly affect my internal direction. Then I remember this poem. And let it go.

Good morning Poetry lovers

One time I spent a month on a farm in Costa Rica. It was something special. Taught me a little about life that I hadn't even suspected I would need to know.

Fresh food directly from the ground has a different flavor. It's tinged with the personal satisfaction of knowing that you gathered this meal. Not by barter, but by sweat, blood, and some tears.( sweat got in my eye made my eyes water.) And then you prepared it, and vìola the meal was pleasing.

Life can be that way. It tastes better when you gather it to you instead of waiting for a delivery.

Go gather that produce!

As I start this journey. I am still not sure what all it will encompass. However I know that if I don't start now. I will still be where I am. So the start is going to be in spurts, and a little struggle with self as I remaster my focal points in life. You got to break a few eggs to eat that cake.
