“Is It Your Turn Yet?”

Finesse In Life
I have always loved competition and participating in many sports.
My early life was focused on sports in which the victor, usually, was the fastest, strongest and meanest. Now, as I am approaching 60, those components of success are definitely not in my favor. With this realization, I am entering an era of being a “wanna-be” in some more “gentle” sports.
With my stated history - It is truly a struggle trying to be good at sports where the difference between success and failure is maybe a half ounce of pressure here or there or when simply thinking what to do next, the energy of the thought process drives the next successful or unsuccesful action.
It is like starting over to realize that the more gentle, intuitive and sensing I am, the more successful I will be.
Whether it be sports, work or life relationships, it seems that the secret to success is the ability to always adapt to change when reviewing our personal world and our position in it. What was correct and successful yesterday is not what will work tomorrow.
If only some of my old teammates could see this “bull in a china shop” attempt subtleness and precise control, they would laugh.
This is the first day of the rest of your life.
