Last week was about "the importance of bookends". This means that it's important to pay attention to how you start and stop each activity. The two examples that were give: focus on starting class with real intensity and having the intensity at the finish too. And, you should start each day with intensity (they suggested a short run) and finish it not with the drone of a TV but with some reflection on the day.
As I listened to the talk, it seemed to me that they were suggesting that you should finish each day with a short blog post reflecting on the reality of today and the promise of tomorrow.
This reminded my of one my favorite posts: Why do I blog? Any current favorite marketing activity: Promoting the BlogWritingCourse.

I enjoy your posts. I agree with your reasons for blogging, too. My original reason was to go back to my very beginnings in martial arts (about a year in now)and journal the journey up to current rank (yellow) and definitely beyond. My goal is to one day reach black belt and then at the point, I will set a new goal because we never stop learning. If we do, why bother? Keep writing your wonderful posts - I'll be reading them! Hope you'll read mine, too.
I like the idea of bookends. Came to you via under the overpasses and his wife.
I have toyed with the idea of returning to karate - it's been about 15 years now since I was about to grade for my brown belt and had to stop for work and knee related reasons - who knows I might get there yet!
