Each action has a Reaction
Each action we do will have some type of reaction, which do we learn more from?

Thanks for the video, Scott !
Riding motorcycles is comparable to keeping a good marriage or sentimental relationship in good standing, IMHO. People talk about commitment, but that word may mislead. You can commit to put up with bad things for long time, and that is not healthy. There are only two things to which you must commit to be successful in any of the three endeavors: 1) In a sustained way, do your absolute best effort to become the best you can be. 2) Genuinely enjoy and love what you do. You don't commit to a curve or a date, you commit to a life time of turning and dating properly. We will make mistakes during the journey, but that doesn't have to be a big deal: the big picture is that we are not wasting this awesome temporary opportunity named life in a comfort zone, in denial, blaming others or feeling victims of this cruel reality. We try, we err, we learn and we grow. See what you dog does with the snow? He is the innocence enjoying reality and present time without the interference of preconceptions like guilt, past, duty, future, self-worth. Life has to be managed each day, it cannot be cured. The braking lights of that minivan was telling you that there was a reason for that driver to slowdown. You failed to received and/or to process the message and got into trouble. You managed your way out of that trouble. It could have been fatal but it was not; hence, you are doing the only next right thing, which is analyzing what your mistake was, learning and moving on in your motorcycling career. Just like mistakes, painful or embarrassing experiences are a natural part of life. What matters is how we process those perceptions, because they become realities in our minds: that is the turning point that either make you quit or keep trying. I love your cat and your dog !!! You are not an idiot, ............take care

I always like your videos, they have "real" felt purpose that isn't found often. Well done.
Find balance between risk and reward yo.

Hey, Scott. I really appreciate the earnest, frank tone of your video, and found it to be both inspiring and thoughtful. I feel like a lot of vloggers let their ego get in the way of being honest, and I really appreciate your heart-felt contribution to the community.
