"A non-doer is very often a critic—that is, someone who sits

back and watches doers, and then waxes philosophically

about how the doers are doing. It's easy to be a critic,

but being a doer requires effort, risk, and change."

Dr. Wayne Dyer

Change scares the hell out of non proactive people,....people that allow life and circumstances to dictate their fate.   Circumstances don't define Character..... Circumstances reveal one's character.

Formula 1's Jenson Button

   This morning I went swimming extra early, since the Iron Man Competition of Monaco began at 7:AM.  I decided to hang around and watch the Swimming portion of the Triathlon. One of the athletes approached me. 

He said, "excuse me, would you please help me with this?  It's difficult to get on."  I snapped and zipped up his wet suit and we started talking.  He commented, you are here pretty early this morning!  I told him I swim every morning and looking at all the cameras on him, asked, "Are you the favorite here today?" He replied, Heck no, I drive Formula 1 Race Cars for a living. He shook my hand and said I'm Jenson Button.  I replied, Rip Lonergan, pleasure to meet you.  He pointed up and said I live right there pointing just beyond Roccabella, our building. Told him,  "I LOVE watching you work!  Good Luck today!"

In the water, waiting to capture the start.

 Didn't really know the swimmers spread out this quickly!  

HERE IS ANOTHER PICTURE OF MY NEW Aquaintance.  AT WORK !!!
