Wearing my blinders. All of the time.

Race horses wear blinders. I'm no race horse. But I like the idea of wearing blinders. Being focused. On my goal. Looking straight ahead. No glances to the side. No distractions. Another thing. Unlike a race horse, I don't have to win the race. Better to achieve a goal. Slowly. Methodically. Unfortunately, sometimes I lose focus. Forgetting to wear my trusty blinders. But I recently donned a nifty pair. And I'm not going to take 'em. off.  I'm going to bed tonight. Wearing my blinders. They are permanently attached. --Jim Broede
