  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

It's Not Easy

    It's Not Easy

    Let's be honest. Ethics is not for wimps. It's not easy being a good person.

    It's not easy to be honest when it might be costly; to play fair when others cheat or to keep inconvenient promises.

    It's not easy to stand up for our beliefs and still respect differing viewpoints.

    It's not easy to control powerful impulses, to be accountable for our attitudes and actions, to tackle unpleasant tasks; or to sacrifice the now for later.

    It's not easy to bear criticism and learn from it without getting angry, to take advice; or to admit error.

    It's not easy to really feel genuine remorse and apologize sincerely or to accept an apology graciously and truly forgive.

    It's not easy to stop feeling like a victim; to resist cynicism and to make the best of every situation;

    It's not easy to be consistently kind; to think of others first; to judge generously; to give the benefit of the doubt;

    It's not easy to be grateful or to give without concern for reward or gratitude;

    It's not easy to fail and still keep trying; to learn from failure; to risk failing again; to start over; to lose with grace; or to be glad for the success of another.

    It's not easy to avoid excuses and rationalizations or resist temptations.

    No, being a person of character is not easy. That's why it's such a lofty goal and an admirable achievement.

    This is from Michael Josephson reminding you that character counts.
