You’ve heard the saying and probably saw the movie but here is video proof that all dogs will surely go to heaven. The second after I saw this video I knew I had to share it with all the Road Bandit fans. I hope this video remind us all, that even though we might be the dominant species in the planet, sometimes we can be outdone by mans best friend.
I try to go through life with little to no expectations, hope for the best and then give it my all. Take chances, learn from my mistakes and tell that little voice in my head that says I can’t, to sit back and enjoy the show.
However, recently my initial thoughts have been that odds are I might fail. But odds are just numbers that hold no meaning in Randy Land. In the end, when the dust has settled and I’ve achieved my goal that at first seemed risky, I just sit back and realize “damn dude I am impressed.”
Self doubt is a disease that can only be cured by changing your thinking or proving yourself wrong. Sometimes you can push away self doubt with a quick mental moment where you realize that if you said out loud the thoughts that were in your head you would sound like a dumbass.
But the most effective and exciting cure for proving yourself and others wrong is by going out there and just doing it. The Nike company might have an overpriced clothing line but their slogan is worth its weight in gold! “JUST DO IT”
A slow and steady pace forward might get you to your destination but what’s to say you don’t get lost or run out of fuel before you get there?
It’s like the moment before you get into a pool or lake or the ocean. You can either walk slowly in and let the water numb your body till it seems warm or you can run, jump and scream your way towards an exciting splash.
Sure, at first it’s intense but five to ten seconds later your swimming around telling others they need to jump in cause the water’s perfect and they’re all missing out.
Halfway through August and I am already cashing in on tons of productivity, early mornings and now I’ve won a a whole six pack by the one and only Jason Moffatt.
Question is, will Jason be sending me six pack of beer to tempt me or a six pack of that non-alcoholic beer O’Douls or maybe he will send me a copy of 8 Minute Abs and have me work my ass off for that six pack.
Either way, I am cruising through August and I want to thank not just Jason but everyone who has cheered me on so far.
Today I received an awesome message from a guy named Todd that I just have to share with all of you.
From Todd -Great Job Man! Keep up the good work… You are living a dream for a lot of people, not just yourself. I’m 37 and have always wanted to do what you’re doing! I like your style too – the positivity route is the only road that keeps getting better. Thanks for the great post ‘do you trust yourself’ – I tweeted it and posted it on my Facebook. It actually caught me at a great moment – times are a little tough and though I’m super positive 99% of the time – I was having a “moment” last night . Then I woke up and found your tweet and discovered your project and your post totally turned me back around. Thanks again and GOOD LUCK to you… I’ll continue to follow and post your stuff whenever I can.
Thanks Todd for that very kind message and thank you to everyone who has ever commented or sent me a message on Road Bandit. You guys are my fuel to keep going and anytime I hear that I have had a positive impact on your lives it gives me a smile that last for days :) I can’t wait to get back out there and shoot tons of more videos and meet all you crazy awesome peeps!
