It was not until about 70 years ago that the majority of American households had an indoor refrigerator.

And it took another bunch of decades before we were able to produce, transport, and consume food in our homes that was safe, nutritious and plentiful. Today, the average piece of produce that you find in your fridge traveled over 1,000 miles to get to your local supermarket.

Let's keep those facts in mind while going through the Level Three blessings checklist:


Refrigerator—Check.


Freezer—
Check.


Oven—
Check.


Cabinets—
Check.


Pantry Closet—
Check.


Vegetables, dairy products, meat products, condiments, flour—
Check.


Food Checklist? All checks.

The fact is that for the majority of human existence we were hunted by animals, bacteria, viruses—not to mention other humans, where their chances of success were far greater than they are today.


You wake up every day and enjoy Level Three blessings, which less than 0.1% of all humans
ever in existence had access to. Think about how many hundreds of millions—if not billions of us—don’t have these Level Three blessings.

Return to Your Babyhood Remember the good old days when you were a baby? When you never gave up, regardless of how many times you failed. What happened to those good old days? When you were learning how to walk, you fell down each and every time. On average 17 times per hour. Hundreds if not thousands of times. And what did you do? You got back up. Each and every time. No questions asked. Never taking failure as your final answer. And then, you succeeded. You never doubted yourself. You never overthought things. You never got in your way. If you are now doing these things, preventing yourself from succeeding, getting in your own way, doubting yourself, overthinking things, stop. You can do it. You have done it before. When you had far less capabilities and knowledge and support. Wishes for another great day, each one a gift, David/

Failure or Revelation? You never fail at anything, and that is the truth. What you are doing is revealing to yourself an area of improvement. It is important to realize this, because if you are not failing at something, you are not challenging yourself adequately. And if you are not challenging yourself, how do you make yourself a better person tomorrow than you are today? So please, fail at something often. Be a better person each and every day, because, Each day is a gift, David/
