Where can you reduce clutter in your life?

My clutter in is my own head, I have so many random thoughts on minute by minute basis that I get distracted and don’t achieve the task I initially wanted to accomplish.

What is your favorite animal?

In what ways do you communicate online?

Being of the Gen X era I still prefer to actually have a conversation, other than family in Great Britain which the rare and infrequent communication is via facebook. I do communicate with text messages because of its ease and relative concise nature.

Think back on your most memorable road trip.

Every “road trip” I remember always had a purpose of relocating, working or retrieving something never just family fun. 2011 I drive from Milwaukee WI to Phoenix AZ in 26 hours straight through without stopping, in 1987 I drove from Seattle WA to Maryland in 40 hours without taking a break… dumb drive but at the time felt necessary. All my long drives are memorable just by the fact that I survived to talk about them.

What snack would you eat right now?

My favorite snack is dried fruit, mangos, cranberries, banana and plantain chips. Satisfies the sweet without spiking you blood sugar.

Come up with a crazy business idea.

Wouldn’t call any of my ideas crazy just overly ambitious. HHH ranch is doable but ambitious with a lot of working parts as a non profit service oriented business. My grandest idea a 300+ mile water desalination pipeline from Baja California through the Sonoran desert to Yuma Arizona that would bring water back to the desert and create countless jobs and opportunities on both sides of the Mexico boarder. Problem is it needs to be a public works project on the scale of the interstate highway system.

Describe an item you were incredibly attached to as a youth. What became of it?

As a child with an Army NCO father we relocated often so no priority was put on nostalgic possessions. I know sounds sad for a child but memories and experiences last far longer than a childhood woobie.

What is your mission?

My mission/missions for today is to get out of the hospital, ended up here due to a fall and head injury on 12/28, and to determine whether to repair my car or replace it.

Like most I have always thought missions and goal where the same but in doing more reading I liken the difference as missions are comparable to taste testing a recipe and goals as preparing and consuming that meal… let me know if I am wrong on that comparison, I did just have a head injury so I can except being wrong.

What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?

I truly believe there’s a difference between quality versus quantity. Sometimes quality is far more important than quantity. If you can’t live along healthy, productive life, then quality is not there.

What could you do differently?

I could work more on interpersonal contact I don’t tend to have friends, not true don’t have close friends, tend to keep people at an arms distance it’s just easier that way, and I suppose that’s something I could absolutely do differently.
