Unable to ride since cataract surgery

Wheels of Happiness

I have been unable to ride since the cataract surgery because of unbalanced vision.   The left eye is clear; the right eye is not.  So sometimes it is clear and sometimes it is not.   I better wait until the right eye is done and that is on October 1.   Right now am just being careful.   The vids and other advice from those who had the operations said:   no hard exertions, no exercise and no SI.  


If ever I can resume riding by November of December.

Changing mindset at 50 by Elon Musk

Wheels of Happiness

The next 50 years is not a continuation of the first 50.   It is not a time for retiring but to reinvent, or recreate your life   Stop shrinking if you want to expand.  Stop seeking permission if you want to live for the next 50 years.

At 20-40 your advantage and power is your energy;   if you are over 50, your power is your skills and knowlede

How you can repurpose your life, your next 50 years.
1.  What is it that you cant stop thinking about?
2.  What can your contribution for the next 20 years
3.  What is the thing where there is most friction?   That can be your compass

What limits you is your enegy and they can be dissipated by your habits:
1.  Distraction external stimuli that robs of your energy:   phone, soc media, txt etc
2.  Unfiltered input from someone?  Is he trying to build a better future or putting you down?
3.  Multi tasking

Chaning your mindset after 50.  This is strategic
1.  Stop defending protecting what you have built.  What if you start all over again
     Stop[ validating.  Build something bigger than yourself.  Stop apologizing for being 50   Build something that you are not qualified (this will elicit the best in you and/or energy that you are low on.
2.  What do you want to be in the next 20 years.  What will be your greatest contribution.
      You are not yet on decline

3.  You focus on imagination, creation and action

A prescription for golden girls and boys to lead a better next 50 years.

I could bike and blog again

Despite some controversial news that came out last week (Trump win, SC approval on Marcos burial at the LBNMB) is had something to be happy about.  After weeks of difficulty of having double vision due to eye infection,, my vision returned to normal since Wednesday.  Last Saturday, I tried biking for 10 km and I was able to do this safely.

This morning I rode 20 km.  To top it all, I was able to sprint, ride at pace and even overtook some riders.  (One that I overtook at Bilibiran, reached the convention center when I was going back from Montevideo.

This noon, I tried my hand blogging again.  Welcome my friends.

For some unknown reason, the number of page views went up by a factor of 5 while I was absent from the blog
