The NINJA
The Latest and Greatest in Creating Your Awesomeness!



As those who subscribe to The Awesomeness Update know, this has been a challenging week for me when it comes to technology. I have felt challenged to feel the gratitude, which is something I practice and preach most (OK, I admit it, all ) of the time, any personal training client who's got to share 3 things they're grateful for each session is having a chuckle at this right now I'm sure.

But sometimes it can be challenging when we have work to get done and it's not going our way
, and it's in those moments that having presence of mind to realize that you can't, for example "make" the internet work, and instead choose  then to be grateful to (usually) have high speed internet at home, and know even when I don't get instant Western lifestyle gratification that life is good and that there's a lot to be grateful for even when the day isn't going as planned. As I promised the Awesomeness Update readers (who as I mentioned are always sharing thing they're grateful for), and as it's quite à propos, here's a glimpse into this past weekend and the life that I have to be so grateful for!

2. Sautèe onions on medium low (don't let them brown) until softening and transluscent.
