JOHNNY CASH’S DAILY TO-DO LIST

My girlfriend’s related to Johhny Cash so we have a heightened awareness of fun little tidbits like this one that pops up from time to time. I thought it’d be good as we all start this new year, very different than any other new year we’ve had and we reflect and set goals or intentions that we want to accomplish in our future.

Like Johnny, I have a number of basics that I need to remind myself of on a daily basis. Eating is one of them. Weird, I know but it is. I get so caught up in what I’m doing I put it off over and over and then finally horse down a meal when it’s dinner time. Not healthy and something I definitely need to work on.

Loving is another one of my daily goals I need to improve on. Johnny reminds himself to kiss June and to not kiss anyone else. For me, I need to call or text my kids every day and kiss my girl, Carly. We all get busy and sometimes we all get used to the ones we love. We need to not get so busy we don’t fully appreciate those people. In the end, your work, your money, your everything is gone BUT not your family. And not those loved ones. Let them know how special they are every day.

I’m pretty sure I can remember to hit the bathroom without writing it down and everyone’s list is unique, different, and special just like Johnny’s was for him. Make that list. Get out there. And be a better you starting today.
