    “The goal of life … is not happiness, peace, or fulfillment, but aliveness.” —Hubert Dreyfuss

    1. Sometimes curiosity about what’s around the next corner is enough to keep us exploring and moving forward.

    2. Life doesn’t end once you’ve done “enough.” It keeps unfolding.

    3. I hike because I am curious and because I can.

    4. Here's a mantra I'll take with me on my next hike of the Great Divide Trail:

    You’re not hiking for records, for ego, or for others.
    You’re hiking because you still can—and that’s everything.
    Each step is a declaration: “My body is capable. My spirit is willing. I am still in motion.”
    There may come a day when this kind of journey is no longer possible.
    But that day is not today.
    Today, you hike.

    MUSIC: "Poema del Pastor Coya" by Angel Lasala as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, piano.

  • Mindset in Motion

    "You can think your way into a new way of acting, or act your way into a new way of thinking."

    • Sometimes we can’t wait for the right mindset to show up. Sometimes we have to step into the behavior first, and trust that the mindset will follow.

    • Credit is due James Loehr the author of "Mental Toughness Training for Athletes."

    • He says we tend to reside in three energy states:
      1. Relaxed-Ready,
      2. Positive-Energized,
      3. Negative-Energized
      4. and the dreaded Negative-Fatigued

    • To move out of the more negative states into the positive ones we need to use our emotions as data. What are they telling us?

    • Instead of resisting how we feel, we can respond with tools like:
      1. deep breathing,
      2. focusing on the next small step,
      3. reframing self-talk
      4. and leaning on others.

  • Embrace the Suck

    The trail—like life—may not always be what we want it to be, but it offers us the opportunity to choose how we respond to whatever it doles out.

    • In the hiking world we have a saying, "Embrace the Suck!"

    • It's a reminder that the trail doesn't care what we want it to be and is not there simply to meet our expectations.

    • But we always have a choice to accept what is and manage it with faith that things will eventually change for the better.

    • A good mantra that emphasizes our power is, "Embrace the suck or it will embrace you!"
