Things at rest tend to stay at rest.

If you are feeling stalled or stuck and ready for a new challenge or opportunity, it’s time to get moving.

Daily motion, even in tiny steps, is essential for health, learning, happiness, discovery, and professional success.

Day by day. Step by step.

Keep moving! 🦁

Remembering Legendary Canadiens Goalie Ken Dryden | NHL YouTube

As a Bruins fan, I have fond and frustrating memories of Ken Dryden's brilliant goaltending that powered the Canadiens to six Stanley Cup championships in eight NHL seasons. Remarkable on the ice, Dryden likewise excelled as an author, television analyst, hockey executive, and member of Canada’s Parliament. Merci mille fois #29. Peace be with you.🏒
