   Yet another Thursday in the books, #OwnThisDay True Believers!   Spring has finally sprung!  We've got warm weather in the Dakotas, no snow, and things are coming together! 

   Today was a Kids Judo/Karate Day at the Dakota Budokan.  That meant that I got to train with my son, Morgan, who is always got his wheels turning!  Not only do I get to share something with him that has been an important part of who I am, we also get to talk about how  he's interacting with people at school.  You know you're doing something right when your son uses  what you talk about with his friends at school.

    The example to this is a friend of his that he currently has Choir with.  This is someone that he has known since we moved down to Sioux Falls.  His friend has a tendency, as most kids that age do, to be dramatic.  This friend was convinced that another boy in their class was "out to get him".  Morgan talked to him about Living Life @ 90% and to Own This Day the best he can.  That seemed to turn on a light for him.

   This shows that Owning This Day not only will help you bring out the positive, it also affects the people around you.  People pay attention to Positive!

     Another example is the whole Nancy Grace Interview that Dallas had.  She did everything that she could to make it as negative and dramatic as possible.  Dallas, being the Exceptional Teacher that he is, kept it real and positive.  He wasn't going to go down that road, no matter how Ms. Grace wanted to otherwise. 

    

     On another note, Mixed Tape Day 10 is done.  I didn't get to the Level 1 workout I wanted to today, but tomorrow is another day to focus on that goal to hit both Mixed Tape & Level 1.

    

     Here are the numbers:

Workout: Mixed Tape (10)

Total Workout Time: 35:35

Average Heart Rate: 127bpm

Maximum Heart Rate: 148bpm

Total Time in the Zone: Around 33 Minutes - had some spikes on the high side today.

    Plus, I got confirmation that I will be meeting up with one Mike "The Maestro" Stroeh on Sunday to help him with his Level 1 Workout Certification Tape. In all, this weekend is shaping up to be a High Activity Weekend!

    Bringing out the Positive to balance out the Negative will help you....
