3 Random Monday Thoughts (Aug 12th edition)

Once a week, I send you random thoughts on my mind.

These thoughts cover my books, my Japan life and sometimes family tings.

I do this to help move something in you.

And to document my thoughts and feelings in my life.

1. In New York, where…

I’m currently in NYC to see my lil brother perform on Broadway for “The Outsiders” with family and my girlfriend (from Saga).

He was amazing. Strong vocals and passionate dancing complemented by a dash of humor that had the crowd cheering and asking for autographs after the show.

I love seeing my brother get everything he’s worked hard for over the years.

And to see how he’s injected New York into his veins wholly and thoroughly.

The entire city is buzzing with energy, but spending time with the folks he performs was 10x the intensity.

It was so wild to me to see how energetic these actors were after just pouring their soul on stage to joining a birthday party (my brother’s) an hour later.

Meanwhile, my girlfriend and I were zombies walking through Time Square after flying for 14 hours and heading straight for the theater.

Anyway, I’ll be soaking up all the electrifying energy over the next few days before heading to the Northeastern countryside…more on that later.

2. I want you to know…

That there is no such thing as perfection.

Do a thing.

Try a thing.

Fail a thing.

Get up and try again.

3. Stretch

As I write this I just felt my hip flexor lock up.

Time to stretch.

Join me for a 5 minute release for ya body.

Trust me, everyone needs a stretch break.

Talk soon,
