The Right Place at The Right Time



We have all heard the expression, the right place at the right time. It indicates there is a level of luck in the scenario of life. I argue there are higher powers at work. More importantly, you are in the right place at the right time, because of you. Your hard work and efforts.

The other day a friend messaged me to see if I knew anyone that could haul a heifer. I don’t have a trailer or truck big enough to pull one at this time. I thought, I miss having a bigger truck. Then I realized I don’t need one hardly ever. Dad and I live in town at this time for convenience of work and other aspects of life.
When I was driving to the last show to judge, I told Dad I miss living in the country. I do everyday. The choice to live where I am now is a calculated decision. One I made for many reasons. I want cattle again. I want to raise some goats and a slew of other animals. That day will come and is on my path for life goals.
Not being close to some of my dearest friends is tough. I live in a town where I have met many new people; my neighbors are great. I want to be where my people are located. The problem is I have close friends all over. Only a couple I want to be next door. That means moving states, and I am not sure I am ready for that option yet. Lol
The point of all this is, the changes I made in my life are for a bigger purpose. There is a method to my madness. No matter what I want or feel at this time. I know I am on the right path at this right time. The goals we set in life are bound to take us to locations and places we have never thought about. Accepting those changes can and will be some of the biggest adventures in your life. They should also lead to some of the greatest accomplishments.

Remember, you are also in the right place at the right time. There is a bigger calling and purpose to life. Whatever you are going through or struggling with is for a reason. The next chapter may be the best that there has ever been.

You are a special kind of stupid aren't you?

     I started this post the other day and it was titled something else and decided to change it since people never cease to amaze me. I know a lot of people. They either worked with me, were one of my employees when I managed people, or friends and family.  I like to follow a wide variety of people on my twitter account.  I think it's important to get a well rounded idea of what people think and believe.      There are some horrific tragedies that have occurred in our country.   They are tragedies that we have seen in the past and will continue to see in the future.  We as Americans come together and support each other, we provide support, food, money, and a prayer.  All are important to the process of rebuilding their lives that have been destroyed.      Theordore Rosevelt was fond of the West African Proverb "Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far." Pretty good saying in my book. ...

Clean your Windshield

It’s that time of year where people will have the “new year, new me” phrase going strong. For many that will last about 2-3 weeks.  For others they will last well into mid-year. I am of the philosophy that you should make changes immediately in life. If you need to start eating healthier then go to the cupboard and fridge and throw out all unhealthy food. If you are going to stop drinking, throw out all your booze. (Rest a sure this will not happen in my house.) If you are going to start working harder on your livestock, turn off your phones and get to the barn. If you are going to sit back and re-evaluate your life while planning for new adventures, sit down and make a list. Every one of these goals requires you to clean your windshield to see what is ahead of you.  As we go down the highway of life we have a big broad windshield in front of us. We can see great distances and have great hopes of what I'd to come in our lives. In-order to see down that road, you must clea...

What do you know about your Purebred Cattle?

     There has been a small discussion on one social media site about a certain Hereford Bull not testing 100% Hereford.  I am not going to go into depth on the who was right or wrong or what the truth is about that bull.  What I want to talk about is cattle being purebred anymore or do you know the true lineage of your cattle?  For years we have known that some animals were not 100% purebred.  When I was younger being purebred was a status that people took pride in with their herds.  Today I believe a lot of people still take pride in their purebred operations.      For years people have known that real money is made in commercial cattle.  The Purebred cattle industry was/is the upper echelon of cattle.  These are the cattle that people took to fairs to exhibit.  They took to their state fairs to see what prize they could obtain with their homegrown bulls and heifers. There are also some great advantages to taking ...
