Like when you take the dogs for a walk and...oops! Over the cliff they go without even noticing.
PS: 😳 So it's incorrect to say lead here?
Leading muppets into despair -- guiding them by degrees into a state of abject despondency -- is a very funny image.

that's not how you spell 'so'.
He sent me to school. I was so proud of my 'yo'.
Then I discovered he had been lying to me! :'(

[b]Annual Gut Check Time
What do you call a drummer without a girlfriend?[hidden]Homeless.[/hidden]..... but we digress.
Once again it's Annual Gut Check Time, time to be honest with yourself.
So, what's in your belly? Where does it still hurt as of January 1, 2010?
.....................................[/b]
1. Time Management
over the last year, I've exceeded my expectations in this area, however, I've noticed
that my expectations were stunningly low. This lack of expectation is probably related
to my previous weakness. This year I need to work much harder at organizing my time.
I've gotten much better at taking baby steps day-to-day in order to accomplish great
things, however I still have trouble with the most trivial things; Washing hand towels
on any set schedule. Furthermore, I never schedule time to analyze my schedule
itself. This is probably my biggest fault, is a lack of edification. I need to pay more
attention to how I spend my time in 2010!
2. Personal Wellness
While I'm a rather healthy person, I've had my fair share of setbacks which have
undoubtedly shortened my lifespan. I take good care of myself, but there is always
another step to take. I certainly need to take it. Exercise and diet is great, however
I need to add some sort of release, Yoga maybe? Seems too fruity... Meditation?
Maybe. Something certainly needs to be added, as of now my only stress release
is a heavy bag, P90X, and weight training. Not exactly ideal.
3. Affirmation
Simply put, I must be more positive to those around me. Over the past year I've
made some huge steps in treating people respectfully. However, I still catch myself
quite often being condescending, arrogant, and just downright dominating. While
in person I'd like to think its rare that I act this way, I need to practice more
compliments for those around me, rather than more condemnation.
4. Judge not
My worst of faults! I judge people within moments, sometimes before they even
speak. I've always had a gift for reading body language, right down to twitches.
I've always been a step ahead in reading intent, and emotion. That said, nobody
deserves to be judged as quickly as I am guilty of doing; mechanically. While I do
find that quite often I am right, there are times I find myself back-pedaling simply due
to my own pigheadedness.
5. Spiritual Relationship
Simply put, this can never cease to be a goal. Once it does, I've failed myself.
Thanks for drawing attention to the subject GB!

Chess - As best as I may see
An illustration, a shifting representation of logic, guiding the principles
of a pair of grande designs. Where the imbalance of human
philosophical predilection, erodes logic's hold, on equilibrium.

Your RHP Profile also seems deserving of a valid response...
which from my vantage point would be instant appreciation.
