Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.
The two most important days of your life are the day you were born and the day you discover why you were born. Let today be your discovery day.

I like to think I'm good at my job, and being a good husband to my wife. I try to be as genuine of a person that I possibly can be.

"2 be Present > Now <"
Be present
by Tom Murcko
by Tom Murcko
The mind is a noisy place. We often get lost in thoughts of a remembered past or an anticipated future. Whether reminiscing or regretting what has happened, or planning or worrying about what might happen, the past and the future steal our attention away from the present. We become mentally absent, on autopilot, forgetting to experience what’s happening right here and now.
Life unfolds in the present. The past was, and the future will be, but the present is all that ever is. Now is the moment of power, where all decisions are made, all emotions are felt, all life is lived. Give the present the attention it deserves.'
Life unfolds in the present. The past was, and the future will be, but the present is all that ever is. Now is the moment of power, where all decisions are made, all emotions are felt, all life is lived. Give the present the attention it deserves.'
To be present is to experience yourself from moment to moment, awake to the immediacy, the nowness, of everything that’s happening around you. Celebrating the act of being, undistracted by the past or the future. Like a child at play: carefree, exuberant, unselfconscious.
Being present has other benefits as well. You’ll feel fewer negative emotions and more positive emotions. Guilt and regret result from a focus on the past. Fear and stress result from a focus on the future. A focus on the present fosters openness, equanimity, and gratitude.
How can you be more present?
– Through awareness. It’s hard to stay present because when you aren’t present, you’re not there to notice your absence. But with practice you can awaken to the richness of the present moment and appreciate your role in it. Thinking about being present is not being present, so turn off your analytical mind and turn on your observing mind. Focus on your body, which is always in the present no matter where your mind is. Or your breath, or your senses, or your surroundings. Anything that can anchor you in the current moment.
– Through acceptance. Don’t resist the present; embrace it. As each moment reveals itself to you, greet it with unhurried appreciation. Surrender to whatever the moment brings, and be open to the present as it opens into the future. Love what is and what is becoming.
– Through involvement. Inhabit the present more fully by sensing the immediacy of experience, free of yesterday’s regrets and tomorrow’s expectations. Get out of the there-and-then of thinking and into the here-and-now of experiencing. Welcome each new moment, and dance with it.
– Through authenticity. Stop worrying about what others will think. See every new moment as an opportunity to embrace your passions, to live in alignment with your values, to fill the present with what matters.
Some people focus on the present, but in the wrong way. They place too much weight on what they’re doing today. But this is future-focus in disguise: valuing today merely for its perceived impact on tomorrow. The results are worry, fear and stress. It also makes them focus on only those aspects of the present that are useful for the future, to the neglect of everything else. Being present is not overweighting certain aspects of what’s happening now, but connecting more fully with all of it. Treat today as an end, not just a means to some longed-for tomorrow.
Right now, this thing that’s happening is your life. You have been blessed with this instant, and this one, and this one. These moments will only happen once. Be present for them.

Being honest... Sometimes it's to the point of being brutal, but I'd rather give people the harsh truth (if applicable) as opposed to a lie to make them feel good.

Thanks `John for your post/words.
I believe & have been taught that a person is only as good or bad as the actions of their words (4>Sure)
Yes, Honesty can be HARSH
