6:09am I see a path to greatness every day. A thousand possibilities laid before me. Most mornings I am eager to get started. To see what I can accomplish. I dream about success, love, happiness and contentment. I start many adventures, but seldom see them to completion. I get distracted by other commitments. I become overwhelmed by the complexity of the mission. I encounter obstacles. I doubt my abilities. I become dejected and give up. On the path to greatness I take the first exit afforded me. I stand on the side of the road and feel sorry for myself. I pout. I grieve. I become despondent. Then i begin the process of healing. I swear I learned my lesson. I vow to do better. I pick up my countenance. Go back to the starting line and do it all over again.

Reprieve
6:07pm we have an admission tonight. I don’t like to celebrate the fact that someone is terminally ill but from a provider standpoint it is helpful. We need to care for patients or we cannot serve our mission. I am sitting outside a pancake house.m, waiting to pick up dinner. That was the consensus choice. Overcast sky. Looks like a nice cooling rain storm possible. It is still 103 degrees.
No other option
There is no option but reaching the objective.
Doubt, reason, analysis are poison.
Rationale for alternative outcomes destroys the mission.
The objective is absolute and singular.
