It's it a Ponzi?

How can anyone know anything for sure now days?

But anyone claiming Bitcoin as a Ponzi while at the same time refusing to point out that money printed to take value from common people's saved wealth is a much more sinisterly designed scheme than Bitcoin ever could be...

I don't trust advice from people that aren't trying to exit the current system in some way.

Looking down on the clouds moving up the valley, pushing up from the front range.

I live mostly in the present. But I often place myself 30 or more years in the future to reflect on what my old future self might believe about what my present self was doing.

I never wish myself to be younger, but I can imagine my future old self jumping at the opportunity to live what I'm living right now.

How to Fail: A skill I teach my football players and students.

Learning how to fall (failing) is one of the unsung skills you must master to build a rewarding life.

When I was young, I didn't think much about getting 'good' at falling down, but I certainly felt the pain of those falls before I learned how to handle them. As a dirt bike rider and football player, I fell over and over again. In the beginning, the falls aren't that traumatic; at a basic level, hitting the ground doesn't require much skill. But as you reach higher levels in any activity, the falls become more intense, requiring the ability to fall gracefully.

Broken collarbones and fractured wrists made it easy for me to see how the mechanics of a fall truly work. Life and business difficulties aren't much different. You will fail, and as you grow, those failures can become significant setbacks if you don't know how to land.

Just as you learn to 'roll with the punches' in physical sports, you must learn how to recover, learn, and rise to the occasion repeatedly in life. Getting good at failing provides the foundation you need to take on bigger projects and move to the next level.

A facing west mountain property, you don't have direct sun in the mornings. The sun hits the top of the Continental Divide first thing though.

I'm living like an old mountain man with this Colorado power restriction strategy.

The 3-day windstorm has passed. Gusts of over 90 mph were clocked on top of Dory Hill Mountain as the storm pushed over the Continental Divide.

Sitting next to the fire in the cabin agreeing with this. ✊

A pure happiness in the Mountains.
