WST 210: To Dream or Not to Dream
You’re making me a victim because you are forcing me to talk about protein and food in general, and I don’t like it. The Hemingway Trick, plus dreaming, or not dreaming, but avoiding the in-between.

WST 207: The Challenge Reveal
Short-term challenges, especially creative pursuits, if challenging enough, will reveal a ton. Insecurities, fears, perceived limitations.

WST 206: Seize the Carpe
Some cliches put too much pressure on us. Seize the Day is a great example, although I’m a fan of this one BUT only because of how I see it. Also, a warning about raw jalapeños, a controversial statement about broccoli, and more.

WST 204: Confusing the Easy
Some aspects of getting healthier, happier, and stronger are hard. But some are SUPER easy. Confuse the easy stuff with the hard stuff and you’ll get nowhere.

WST 201: The Learning Return
Learn things and keep learning things. But know when it’s time to put the book down and get moving. Learning can quickly become a distraction from living. Also, now I hate trees.

WST 198: As Luck Would Have It
Being in the right place at the right time is a long shot at best. Stop caring about getting the ‘lucky break’ and instead divert energy to the work itself.
