Checking Six

The pilots in the fighter community have a saying, "Check 6".  It means look behind you.  The '6' refers to the 6:00 o'clock position of the aircraft with 12:00 o'clock position being the nose of the aircraft.

I guess that's what I'm doing with this blog.  As I get closer to 50 by the day, I look back and see what is behind me.

We can't live our lives that way.  We can only glance in the review mirror occasionally.  It helps us with out situational awareness.  We know where we were, we know where we are and we have a plan to get to where we need to go.

This is the last blog looking behind me.  The next 16 days will be my look ahead, where I plan to go and the obstacles I know I will encounter along the way.
