Ir dienas, kad padoties ir aizliegts. /M. Zvīdriņš Grāmata. Pasaka. Stāsts. Dzīve. Es neizdzīvoju visu haipu par un ap. Tomēr dzīve man tika devusi norādes, lai kaut uz nelielu brīdi, bet dzirdētu daļu no šī stāsta dzīvē. Parunātos pāris minūtes. Uzdotu jautājumu, kuru vairs neatceros. Protams, neatceros arī atbildi. Tas bija pirms grāmatas. Tagad manā … Continue reading #Fudzi161km
Life lessons
Reaping and Sowing
The (Universal) Law of Reaping and Sowing: "Whatever you plant in your mind, you will eventually manifest in the outside World." You've probably heard (or read) a variation of this sentence many times before. I certainly have and there is a reason for that. It works. It is one of the many Laws of this … Continue reading Reaping and Sowing
The first Season.
To be a leader, you must stand for something, or you will fall for anything. /Anthony Pagano First season as a youth basketball Coach is behind, off-season is here and second season is peeking just around the corner. I was asked for a feedback and I thought - let's share the experience. Let's share some of … Continue reading The first Season.
Decide your attitude.
If it feels like "you vs the World" it is most likely "you vs you". If there is something I have learnt from Eastern philosophies, that is the attitude towards what is happening to one self. There are moments in our life where we can't choose or influence what is happening to us, but we … Continue reading Decide your attitude.
Uniting cultures.
There are many things that happen while playing basketball. There are far many more things that happen while coaching a youth team. That's when 1am, 2am thoughts happen, when comes the nights of no sleep. Mind is grinding constantly. Especially after games. I am not in this for anything, only thing why I am in this … Continue reading Uniting cultures.

One thing is to learn it, to acknowledge it, another to apply and practice it in everyday life. It is not as simple … Continue reading Be here, be happy.
Change.
"Before you try to change the World, go three times through your own house." /Chinese Proverb Change the World. It seems that is what we need. Despite the fact we are at very good point at the moment - what will future bring if we continue this way? The way of rush, money, needless stuff, … Continue reading Change.
From in to out.
"In order to control myself I must first accept myself by going with and not against my nature." /Bruce Lee Many want to alter the world and as many want to do it from outside - in. Things don't happen that way. Flowers, trees grow from inside to outside, beings from eggs grow from inside … Continue reading From in to out.
No tomorrow.
"Live like you were dying. Love because you are." /Mark Green It is funny sometimes - we think that everything will last. Despite the history of our World, our ancestors, us. Despite of all that is going on right next to us, around us. That is human nature I guess. Hope, belief and love keeps … Continue reading No tomorrow.
