HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAUREEN

Well today is Maureen's birthday and she is coming to the beach for her birthday, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MAUREEN. I have to say its hard to believe its July already. I have to say I had another busy day here on the OBX yesterday, went for a bike ride and then a run, went down to the beach for a few hours and come home and ran a couple of miles on the treadmill just before supper. Last night we had grilled chicken for dinner and tonight we are having Bobby's Burnt Burgers and if someone is lucky they will get a lucky dog. We are going over to see the Outer Banks Daredevils play the Petersburg Generals tonight over at the First Flight High School baseball field. I have posted some more photos from yesterdays trip to the beach on the same link that was posted in yesterdays entry on the blog. Well I have to get ready for our 7:30am bike ride with Scott and who ever shows up, which I doubt nobody else will. I have posted a couple of photos from a few years back of Dad cooking some of his Bobby's Burnt Burgers. MICKEY

Get started
If you can't imagine how you'll get it done, just get started. The moment you begin, the objective becomes infinitely more achievable than it was before.

It's great to dream and plan and speculate. Yet there is no substitute for action.

Action seals your commitment to achieve. Action places you in a powerful, achievement-oriented perspective.

When you take the first step, you become clear about what the next step must be. When you take the next step, you have created a momentum that can continue pushing you all the way to the end.

Go beyond just thinking you can do it. Take action, and know for sure.

When there's something to be done, then there's something you can do. Get started and get the power of action working for you.
