Certainly been a while since my last #tedsockie, especially one posted around an activity.
Today unfortunately had to visit my Condo Board’s attorney’s office. The attorneys were completely professional, unlike the Board, who are truly “nuts.”
Thanks to @NutsDotCom for the totally appropriate #tedsockie’s.

NO ONE Can Take Away the Memories, Good Feelings, and Love That You Carry Inside
Hi everyone, there is something I want to share with you, especially now due to all the challenges we are facing, and this being Rosh Hashana and the Jewish New Year…
What we do, how we feel, what we hold in our hearts is ALWAYS ours to own and cherish… no one can take that away. I’ve spoken about this with regard to the challenges I’ve had and continue to experience with my daughters since my divorce 17 years ago. It’s something I’ve embraced with them and now realize it is relevant to everything else in my life, and most probably in yours as well. I recently read a book called HAPPINESS NOW, and my biggest takeaway is that we all have happiness within us, and I believe the good things we hold in our hearts about everything… friends, family, work, and play, are ours to hold onto and cherish.
So going forward always remember… NO ONE can take away the memories, good feelings, and love that you carry inside. That’s yours for as long as you want to cherish it. #NoLetUp!👊🏻
There’s a Dale Carnegie quote that encapsulates this so well… “It isn’t what you have, or who you are, or where you are, or what you are doing that makes you happy or unhappy. It is what you think about.”
So with that in mind… All my very best to you, your families, and those you love.
Time for new beginnings…
Dawning of new hopes…
Opening of new horizons…
Wishing you Peace, Prosperity, Health and Happiness in the year ahead!
L’Shanah Tovah 🙏🏻

Today I am in the middle of my 22 day pushup challenge... here’s a few videos (yes, I’m doing more than 22). I was nominated by my friend, @avalanchemike, to do 22 pushups per day for 22 days to raise awareness for combat veterans. There are 22 veterans a day that are committing suicide and this is a small way to raise awareness for that issue.
Now I’m not a big fan of these pass along FB challenges, but “I AM A BIG FAN of MICHAEL FRASER (@avalanchemike),” so doing the challenge daily, but not posting daily, and not nominating others. #wycwyc
#ChampTrail is Mike’s motivational hashtag.

This is utilizing @ResistBot which was recommended by a good friend and colleague who has made use of this service for over a year... https://resist.bot
Text the number 50409, type in SENATE, send the text, and then follow the prompts.
Here is the simple letter below to Copy and Paste (when asked for a Subject I used “Supreme Court Nominee”):
After the precedent set by Senate Republicans during President Obama's term, I am strongly opposed to any nominee to the Supreme Court being confirmed before the swearing in of the President in 2021.
* I also confirmed legitimacy via Snopes... https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/usps-50409/
I realize the links are not live here, but first of all I assure you I’ve checked them, and second you can easily remember and type them into your browser.

Last night as I took off my #NoLetUp! bracelet... it apparently had worn thin, and broke. Seems to sum it up.
#RIPRBG... I have another bracelet, as we all do. #NoLetUp!👊🏻
Forget the apples and honey... Who’s getting drunk with me tonight?
#RIPRBG 🙏🏻
*Drunk tonight... fight tomorrow! #NoLetUp!👊🏻
RIP RBG, you most certainly gave it all you had. So sorry you were not able to retire before passing and have some time for yourself and your family.
Thank you from the bottom of humanity’s heart for NEVER giving up or giving in and representing us with your heart, soul, and life 🙏🏻
This was a true #NoLetUp life!
F**K tRump, #F**K Barr, F**K Pence... and all the rest of their Administration Nazi minions.

TRUST Simplified
TRUST is different from most things we earn. It is highly valued, but it can’t be bought, sometimes shared, but that window closes quickly when overused as it often is. It must be earned, but cannot be sold. Its lifespan will be as long as you are willing to nurture, respect, and care for it.
IMHO trust has a way of earning its own value and maintaining its own lifespan. Those who seek it, and want to keep it, have to live with that reality.
“REAL trumps PERFECT… because REAL creates TRUST.”

Next up “How Democracies Die” so far seems to be the perfect follow-up to “How Fascism Works” and Madeleine Albright’s “Fascism a Warning,” that I read in the past year.
Paul Krugman’s “Arguing with Zombies” was great continuing economics education for me.
#Democracy #Fascism #Economics

Empower your Employees... and they will Power your Brand!
#RonR... #NoLetUp!
“Policing The Black Man” finished, the statistics, facts, and intentions are appalling. Brought a lot together for me.
Halfway through... “Arguing With Zombies” adding some economics and politics to my continuing education.
#WeAreTheChange... #NoLetUp!👊🏻
If football players were wearing pro-#tRump jerseys, or #MAGA hats, the same morons would be jumping up and down praising them. This is not about them being political, it’s about them being for the “wrong” politics.
#BlackLivesMatter #WeAreTheChange... #NoLetUp!👊🏻
Definitely time for a swim... @99walks #SundaySix ☑️
Sub 14’s this time out.
#99walks... #NoLetUp!👊🏻
Facebook just cut me off and shut my account until I took “Libtard” out of my name. They’ve been debating it with me for the past week since a troll reported me. Seems they don’t care if it’s been my FB name for close to 3 years now 🤔
Updated to Ted L Rubin 🙌🏻
Yes indeed, got my @99walks on today. Love cloudy, rainy days 🌧
#99walks #wycwyc... #NoLetUp!👊🏻
I totally “get” and respect 🙏🏻 the whole “anonymous source” thing, and understand there are serious risks to the sources.
BUT... we are a country IN CRISIS right now. It’s time to step-up, speak-up and be the face of change.
#WeThePeople #WeAreTheChange... #NoLetUp!👊🏻
*AND YES... it’s easy for me to say.
