Today’s blog report is about a very popular blog. In fact, I may have been the only person here who did not know about it. It is an inspired piece of work and something that can help every one of us every day of our lives. In my own small way I am trying to go in the same direction as the author. At least, IMHO that is true. But he is so far ahead I cannot see him. There are rumors that he passed this way some time ago. But it’s not something to worry about. Just relax and continue down the path. Enjoy the beautiful landscape but do not decide to go in another direction or give up. And I think this is an important part of his message. Learn the art of applying your best effort without straining yourself. Reach for the stars with grace and good humor .

Where will you be when you are disciplined enough to push aside old bad habits and embrace the constructive ideas he suggests? You will be in a new land. You will walk right out of the old places you knew and into a new country. Who knows. You might even meet the person you are following. And you may meet him where you have always lived.

I made a decision to write about a blog that I found interesting or inspiring in some way every day. And now I am going to add to that promise and read something that is inspirational every day. WWW.lifehack.org will be at the top of the list in that effort. But there are other sources as well. Because we are fortunate to always have people among us who are here to help us.

And not all of them write books or blogs. My wife, Beth, is someone like this. Perhaps you are fortunate enough in your own life to have someone who spends a great deal of time supporting others in one way or another. If you do maybe you should write about them and tell the world how much you appreciate them. How can it hurt? Where would you be without the help you received? The word hero is bandied about a lot these days. My definition is someone who focuses on helping other people a great deal of the time in a way that is constructive and encourages them to grow. These people are pushing the human race forward one step at a time. They set in motion vast forces that have unseen consequences far down the road. But the moment of conception is as simple as a handshake, a wave or a word of encouragement.

Leon Ho provides the inspiration to try and the ideas that lead in a promising direction. He shows us that there are treasures to be found in the blogs that are all around us. And in life as well.
