Here is what he wrote >>
      =====
Thank you again for taking my call. As I’ve been going through your videos, I’ve come to see what a truly blessed, talented, and accomplished individual you are.
Your book ACCIDENT is incredibly inspiring—based on what I’ve seen in your video, it’s no surprise that you’re such a powerful motivational speaker and entertainer.
I’m hopeful and excited to move forward with this project together. Looking forward to what we can create!
I’ll send an Author-Agent Agreement to start our collaboration after this.

BLOG 329–Say YES To New Adventures!

I always find a way–that is the way I do adventure.
Me–Selfish. Ridiculous. Impractical. A Nutball.
One after another, adventure; I never tire of it.
This is a matter of dealing with change; so many can not.
   
My first challenge was the skill of juggling. There was always a new trick to learn, and always challenging. I put everything into it—I wanted to be the best.
     
I’ve been called these things before, and in many respects, they’re all true depending on your outlook. Is it selfish to take time for yourself? I don’t know… Can you continue giving when completely depleted? Is prioritizing a bike ride around the Grand Canyon ridiculous over re-paving your potholed driveway? Maybe.
   
Your time away does not have to be long. Just get out and do some things that you have not done before. Saying YES to ourselves is not a luxury–It’s a necessity. You must make it happen for your entire future and keep exploring. That’s what you truly want.
   
I don’t care who you are — we all must recharge occasionally! If that means taking a walk in the forest, so be it. ‘Busting out to Gettin Jiggy’ is what you want. Even in your basement, rock on. Whatever your jam, you should spread it on and spread it when you need it.
     
It all started in 2009 when I finally faced the sinking feeling that, despite all the fullness in my carefully curated adult life, I had nothing that lit me up, since I couldn’t juggle how I used to. I took a chance on myself and decided to climb a mountain with zero experience and no specific interest.
 
But it’s hard to say YES to ourselves because it acknowledges that we’ve been putting everything and everyone above our own needs. Carving out some YOU + YOU TIME = LESS TIME FOR LOVED ONES and friends, but better for you.
     
How do we feel about THAT?! Show me a person who wants their family to suffer and I’ll show you the devil herself. It doesn’t exist. (Guess what? They will be fine, and perhaps it would be better to be left on their own devices for a while!)
   
The reality is that most of us keep plodding along, telling ourselves we’ll wait until we have more money or time. Just know you will never have enough money or time. Or we push the thing out until we have more time (another illusion: we have no control over our time). It could all end tomorrow or next week, and I know you know what I’m talking about.
     
Just get out there and feel the magic of the wilderness, however you can! 

ALL YOU HAVE IS NOW!
MAKE THINGS FANTASTIC!

WORDS TO INSPIRE YOU!
Inspirational quotes and sayings have a unique ability to change the way we feel about life and can change our thoughts. They are attractive, challenging, and essential on our path to joy and happiness, and finding ways to inspire ourselves and others.
   
READ
Reading through the quotes below about life can do the trick if you’re looking for a pick-me-up or a healthy dose of motivation. Whether centered around positive affirmations, self-care, or success, life quotes can be powerful inspirational tools.
     
THE BURST!
Inspirational quotes and ideas give us a quick and timely burst of wisdom to regain our focus, offering the inspiration needed for the day or occasion. I hope the words below bring a smile to your face and drive you to make this day and every day a fantastic event.
   
BE POSITIVE!
Just as positive words can make someone smile, and a well-timed, amusing quote can make someone laugh, your thoughts react to real life. Have this control! You have complete control over only one thing in the universe—YOUR THINKING!—and that’s where motivational quotes come in!
     
“YOU”
Your quality of thinking and how you think and feel about yourself, including your beliefs and expectations about what is possible, determine everything in your life. Use quotes to move ahead in your life.
   
SELF-TALK IS SO ESSENTIAL—THINK RIGHT!
To stay motivated, you have to use each day as an opportunity to improve and get closer to your goals. It might sound like a lot of work, and it’s next to impossible with your busy schedule. But you can do it! Motivational words, yes, are just words. But they are positive words; they will keep you on track.
   
QUOTES
Motivational quotes affect our brain, behavior, and lives because they make us feel like we are in control of our success and have self-efficacy. Quotes make us believe that we have the confidence to complete a task successfully, which is different from having the motivation to succeed.  
 
QUOTES WILL BENEFIT YOU!
Positive and inspiring quotes can be like sunshine on a cloudy day. They inject optimism into our thoughts, brighten our mood, and help us focus on the good in life. They remind us that even in the face of adversity, we can see the silver lining and embrace a positive attitude.
 
PEARLS OF WISDOM
In a world filled with challenges and indecisiveness, the power of inspirational quotes cannot be exaggerated. These pearls of wisdom uniquely uplift our spirits, can spark positive change, and fuel our motivation when we need it most.
     
WORDS WILL CHANGE YOU!
The correct motivational quote can change you and things, helping you ditch the excuses, escape your comfort zone, and take action. Read these words with an open mind and learn to improve your life.
     
THESE QUOTES
When you read these quotes, you’ll also realize that many other people worldwide are experiencing these feelings. These feelings make you think you’re the only person who could feel this bad. But you’re not. Lots and lots of other people feel bad, too. This is the irony of it. You don’t want other people to feel crappy, but it does make you feel better or at least comforted to know that other people feel just as bad as you.
     
READ CAREFULLY
These quotes can be used when you wake up or prepare for work.
You can write your favorite quotes somewhere where you can see them first thing in the morning.
These quotes are motivating, inspiring, and encouraging.
They will help you see your potential, stay motivated, and see the beauty in every morning.
Use them to your advantage!

MY DAILY JOTTINGS >>
Each week goes by so quickly.
It seems like time is going by faster and faster.
You must live joyfully, daily, for each day!
Do you know what you did last Monday?
Do you remember what you ate for dinner last Thursday?
You can keep track of your doings for a few weeks; you will see your time differently.
Remember, the quality of your life depends on what you do each day, each moment!
  
6/14–Today was the day, sad to say. I departed from Jennifer’s to places further south. I will eventually end up in Florida.
   
6/15–Where I am staying at this motel, many Amish go in their horse and buggy down this road right in front. Nice to hear the clip-clop as the horses go by.
   
Today is Father’s Day in 2025. I’ve heard nothing from any of my three daughters, which is very upsetting. I will let you know if I hear from anyone. Jasmine did call; it was nice to hear her voice.
   
6/16–I am in a room on an upper floor. Stairs can be hard for me to navigate, so since people left after staying over the weekend, I asked to move into a room on the street-level floor. This was a lot of carrying, but I got it done.
   
6/17–It’s very strange. I am always tired. Yes, I get limited sleep, but this seems worse than no sleep. I don’t know what to make of it or do about it. I used to have incredible energy to do everything needed, but it is even difficult to go out and go through three clubs.
   
6/18–Jasmine has set up for me to go to Florida soon. She says to fly down. I have more stuff to take and would rather drive, but I’m unsure what to do.
   
6/19–Went out to juggle on the grass today. My juggling is not advancing; that disturbs me. Makes it so I don’t want to practice ever.
   
Today, I heard from Jay Alvarez in New York City. He wants to take over the future publishing of my books. How exciting! He also said he could find someone to release a movie about my story. As you might know, others have shown interest, but nothing has ever gone through.
   
6/20–I continue hiding away in my Cherry Lane Inn hotel room. Next, I will go to Florida to start my new life. 

THEN, KEEP DOING NEW (DAILY) FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE!

******************
THE GARDEN THIS WEEK
   
I keep this section about gardening in.
I do like the skill and hope you do, too.
   
Winter is here now.
But there are still things you can grow.
And remember about indoor gardening.
   
A self-supporting life can be a better life.
A garden would be a part of that life.
You must look into it!
   
Because I am back on the road.
There will be no more words about the garden.
I do hope Beth keeps it up.
We did a lot of work establishing our vegetable garden.
   
When I drove the van seven years ago,
I grew stuff under the sunroof windows on the top.
I may start that up in my van garden again.
You will find out, of course.

START YOUR GARDEN TODAY!
IT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR YOUR LIFE!

******************
ALL OUR LIVES, WE MUST CHALLENGE OURSELVES!
YOUR CHALLENGE FOR THE WEEK >>Start researching new places you can explore. Then, get out there and challenge yourself to make things happen.

YOU WILL DIE,
PREPARE NOW!
