Yes, by all means be your own person and present yourself with Tenacity.

And don't go with the flow, Be the Flow.

Up pretty early Bob. I've never been very good at taking crap from people. I guess that tenacity comes from playing sports and being passionate about it. I see so many people just going through the motions -- work, bills, cellphone or computer -- wash, rinse, repeat without any purpose or passion.

Wow pb, you’re a triple threat today…you just shared three excellent thoughts at once! Your personal thoughts are just as deep and meaningful!
Thanks, and have a great day!

Good one Plumb, my wife and I find it much easier as we age. One of the privileges as we get older, no more BS.

Sometimes going thru the motions is a tenacity all on its own. The passion just might lie in why they are doing it or who they are doing it for ????

It's a privilege many waste. Spend too much time trying to be be something they're not. Just to impress others that are ego inflated. Be comfortable in your own skin. You'll find the ones that truly like you 👍😊

Some times I wish I could just live my life for myself, but that's hard to do when you care about others.

No one is passionate and tenacious every minute of every day. You have be comfortable in who you are and how you live. I'm not talking about an outward excitement about your life every day. Being who you are is the only one you have to answer to. Your life is your own.

You should have been a teacher Greg. You’d have been a good one.

I doubt it Wulffy. I didn't have the patience for it back then. I don't claim to know much about anything including my new fishing boat. Lol 😂

For most of us we are not the same person we were even 10 years ago. We learn, we change, we grow. The person each of us has become is the total of all the persons we have been. It results in a unique person no matter where we are in our stage of development. I see many these days who don’t seem to want that for themselves. They try to be somebody they are not. I believe that we, as a society, have failed and continue to fail to teach our children how to be comfortable in their uniqueness. We have large segments of people joining together and fighting for this that or the other when it would all be unnecessary if we just appreciated and lived our lives as individuals. I’ll get off my soapbox now!

Good one plumb! Sort of reminds me of a little poster that one of my daughters had hanging in her room growing up that said "Dance like there is nobody watching". I always took it to imply being happy with you you are. You can still have care and compassion for others...but you've got to like yourself first.
