Tacos and Golf

Hola!  It’s National Taco Day!  I can’t believe I ate chimichangas last night!

I am not sure what that has to do with anything, but maybe you can get out and have some tacos.  I think I may make Fish Tacos tonight.

It appears it is one of those days when I don’t have much to say, but actually I do have a little bit of something for you today.

A few years ago I swore off golf, because I stink.  I don’t mean I am just a poor player, I mean I stink.  I usually play the wrong fairway – meaning that is we are traveling down the fairway on the left, my ball is over on the right fairway that should be played the other direction!

Anyway, today I am heading out to play in a golf tournament.  Everytime I think about it I start laughing out loud – literally.  Yes, literally, I laugh, not a figurative deep inside chuckle.  So, why am I doing this?  Well, this is part of my approach at two things – taking risks and being more intentional around relationships with people.

I am not playing golf today to play golf – I really don’t care how I do – good bad or ugly.  But I am concerned about developing better relationships with the guys I am playing with.  It seems to me that is really what matters in the end anyway!  And let me tell you this is a huge challenge and risk for me, because I would much rather sit in my office and type on my computer.

So today as I head into the basement and brush the spider webs off my borrowed clubs, let me remind you to pay attention to those around you and intentionally get involved in their lives.
