work hard...

...and good things will happen..

today i spent a lot of time doing yard work...

...lots of hard work...

...but work worthwhile...

i wiped out a bunch of tall grass that has been lurking behind our house, a potential fire hazzard, for months...

...it was sweaty, arduous effort...but well worth it...

reminding me of this video...

Work Hard and Good Things Will Happen




and this one...

Success Is In The Effort




peace,

mike

i love friday...

....why?

besides the obvious...the end of another arduous workweek...

...i love being able to remove the monkey from my shoulders and relax with my wife, sitting in front of the tv to watch banal television, sipping some red wine, without the necessity of tomorrow's work day consuming our conversation and psyches...

...yes, we both are blessed with wonderful careers that pay us well...

...yes, we both enjoy our jobs and work very hard to maintain them...

...but, also yes, we need our down time...

...and for me, it is doubly so...

...i not only work long and strenuous hours at my day job, a vocation, btw, that i truly enjoy, but i also have this little thing called livelife365 that sucks up the rest of my waking hours...

leading me to remind myself, daily, of the need to balance...

this video is one of many expounding my feelings on said subject...

how to...find time and balance in your life




and this one doesn't hurt either...

The Grind



until next time...

push yourself...

...new video...please enjoy...

a few weeks ago i uploaded a vid called,

Cut Yourself Some Slack




a video that expresses my desire to take a chill pill once and a while and give yourself a break, cut yourself some much needed slack...

that said, we also must remain vigilant and cognizant to the fact that effort and hard work will take you to the next level...

...prompting me to produce this video...

Push Yourself



while watching both these vids at one setting may result in a paradoxical overload, the bottom line, while always striving to attain the balance necessary to live one's life to its fullest, is that we must attempt to do both...

...think about it...

peace,

mike

tgi...

...t?

...tuesday?

by the time most of you read this it will already be past monday and heavily into tuesday...

hey, i am not a big fan of the mondays...

...but what about tuesdays?

i say...

tgit...

thank god it's tuesday...



why not....it is a mucho better day than its predecessor...

...and is the eve day of hump day wednesday...

what could possibly go wrong or be bad about all that?

so...

here's to the start of another workweek...featuring that dreaded monday...

and here's to my new favorite day...

tuesday!!

until next time...

peace,

eggs...

...one of my most popular vids of late has been my...

How to...Make a Killer Fried Egg Sandwich




now while i am not a big egg eater, this vid never fails to make my mouth water...how about yours?

despite their nefarious rep, eggs are actually more healthier for you than one may think...

loaded with protein, but with less cholesterol and bad stuff, this sandwich is a killer way to start the day and keep you filled with the good stuff to get you through the day...

no worries...

better than those killer carbs...

think about it...

peace,

mike

meet the author...

...and here is his new pic...

i have a book coming out in a few weeks called, "we could change the world...if we wanted to."

it is a passionate project that i have been working on for a few years...along with the book, which is in the last polish/edit phase, i have a finished song that is my best musical effort yet...

...i am also in the process of making the video that will tie all of the above together...

...to say the least, this is an arduous process, but one filled with great effort and satisfaction...

...this weekend i am putting the final touches on getting the book ready for publishing...and just selected this pic for the author photo...let me know what ya think...



given that the book is about all the ways that we can change the world for the better, i felt that this photo represents what mike foster is all about on that topic...

i also uploaded this new video for your viewing pleasure...

How to...Eat Grapefruit

this vid may help...

why do i love pizza?

...so much...

i have been eating and loving pizza for decades...

,...as i am sure  you all have...

but why?

it has to boil down to the ingredients...

tomato sauce...

cheese...

olive oil...

and bread...basically, pizza dough is bread...

top it off with whatever you want...

for me, it's veggies...my favs...

black olives, mushrooms, and artichoke hearts...

and you get this...

How to...Eat Pizza




and if you need more italian food...

try this...

until next time...

i love this vid...it is one of my fastest growing videos...by far...

but many of the comments are about dragon testicles...
