ROMANCE  and BASEBALL:  DREAMS Fulfilled
There are certain songs that take us back to our first love encounter, perhaps a summer love or even now if you are blessed with having that special person in your life...Music reminds us of many dreams, which we all want to be fulfilled.
Price Pritchett talks about the effect of YOU2 (you squared) : “This is a Quantum Leap strategy, that can deliver those special dreams and ambitions that you instinctively feel should be yours." Even when it comes to one's romance and love life, YOU2 can be followed.  Life changes will happen for what you deserve.
(The process its laid out in his classic handbook, YOU2) .
When I think of Romance, for my past, I remember listening  to SADE,

Or songs that have nothing to do with Romance , but make you feel on top of the world, or dancing alone.. here are a few suggestions;

Now Baseball, is the epitome of summer fun and happiness.  The game can also represent dreams fulfilled..so many athletes striving for greatness during their games...  I feel very happy when I watch baseball as do millions of people.. and here’s why: many times you get to witness the commaraderie of the team mates, the playful antics, the pranksters..

The idea  is that we all have hidden gifts, potential assets that go unused.  We  want to open those gifts as Price Pritchett tells us.  Even in Romance and Baseball, there are choices that we make which are life changing.  And that’s just it… when it comes to CHANGE, many of us chicken out.  Watch Pritchett’s GO BRAVE short clip in the section below under "DISCOVER"

WINE  Portugal has some of the best undiscovered and value added wines produced.  One of my favorites in a Rose’ from the Lagos area, in the Algarve.  And a bargain @ about $15.

Shohei, Taylor, Quantum Leaps: Baseball, Romance, Luck?
 
I don’t usually talk about celebs, however there is a correlation here that I want to make between Shohei, Taylor and Quantum Leaps.
Quantum Leaps, according to Price Pritchett lead to explosive results.
We all have the capacity for Quantum Leaps.  Pritchett tells us, “ we get in our way” of being open to them.
I am using these two celebs as examples because, while they are both young, they have already experienced difficult times, persevered, now laser focused to reach their penultimate.  Here are the takeaways: look at the five closest people you hang out with: are they people who you respect and can support each other in life’s path? Stop wasting time on social media, Netflix, etc: Dr.Pritchett tells us that we use only ten% of our potential and waste sixty hours a week on the above.  This summer do something that opens you up to  quantum leaps. ( suggestions in the podcast)

Wine - Champagne Demystified Champagne is the only wine that leaves a woman beautiful after drinking it.” Madame De Pompadour
Champagne, the king of wines in France,  is so  misunderstood by many Americans as they like to call anything that has “bubbles”, champagne.  I know this from my own experience of twenty-six years of selling French wine and other imports.
I don’t correct them but I can guide them to the ultra difference between Champagne and Prosecco, Cava, Cremants, and America 
To clarify, Champagne - true Champagne, not the California illegally labeled champagne,  can only be made in Champagne,  France. Champagne is a specific region with very strict laws governing varietal, aging and production. To call American bubbles,  Champagne is akin to calling all “sneakers” NIKE…
 
Champagne HOUSES, have a distinct style of their own: the blend of varietals is usually a combination of Chardonnay, Petit Meunier and Pinot Noir.  The HOUSE style never 
Never.  It is extremely difficult to produce the exact same flavor profile every year.
Champagne by law must be aged at least two years before it is sold publicly. Krug ages their wines for at least five years before their entry level wine is sold.  That is very expensive inventory.
 
The process of creating a House style is technically challenging as the first fermentation basically prepares the wine for the crucial disgorgement to add the “dosage.”
Think of this dosage as a “house secret sauce.”
The second fermentation rests and ferments while the Champagne master turns each bottle by hand a quarter of inch. This process is called “ riddling”.  It is labor intensive as each bottle is turned a quarter of an inch by hand. Up to 40,000 bottles a day is common and the  remueur, the riddler, is making certain that the dosage and yeasts are blended into the wine bottle.
Today, it is more common to see mechanization of this process by gyropalettes.

How does Romance begin?  And what does it have to do with Baseball? 
For one, don’t you think that Romance is akin to a foreign language?
I have been studying European Portuguese for over a year and it’s the  most difficult language that I am mastering: My French is fine, Italian so-so, Spanish ok… 
It is really difficult however, to hear this spoken language.  I believe that this need to understand the spoken language, is similar to understanding the language of ROMANCE. 
Our teacher Liz Sharma is young and very funny. She uses movie clips, music and live interviews to teach us via zoom classes: @talkthestreets.  Liz Sharma
Here is a clip of where the romance starts in this famous Portuguese film with Colin Firth  (Jamie) and Aurelia (Lúcia Moniz) LOVE ACTUALLY
Where the Romance begins… does it begin with this scene where she dives into the lake to rescue Jamie’s book as the wind caught the pages?
  ..without her clothes on…https://youtu.be/DsugPaXH4kA?si=yxnX4IuwEjsxf-W0
Of course not… it started much sooner when you watch the entire film..
Point being that Romance is similar to learning a language or even baseball because of the nuances … you have to pay attention to the signals..
Just like baseball… bear with me… there are rules that are unwritten in our behavior.
Now baseball. … while it’s true that you can’t break the rules to play fair… there are some players that do bend them a little . Check this out….Batters smacking the helmuts of the poor catchers!!

BASEBALL and ROMANCE
Baseball for me resembles life in an ironic way.  Take for instance these insane umpires and their ejections of the players.  Many times they are so wrong that it is impossible to comprehend how they keep employed..
We see this in life also: Our companies do some of the most outlandish acts that have nothing to do with the right call for their employees.  The courts are crazy. You name it.
This is going to be a happy change though from so much upheaval and turmoil in our world today.
Let’s celebrate sportsmanlike conduct, crazy plays by the baseball teams and have fun.
It’s Spring and the start of the baseball season so let’s get to it:

Romance - Doesn’t spring remind of you new beginnings especially from the heart?
I love this guy Matt Boggs- he is the guru of dating masterclasses and gives people a real insight into managing the labyrinth of “ HOW TO DATE” in this nutty adventure.  Some of his classes include: 
He STILL hasn’t asked you out, Valerie?
You’ve been texting each other for weeks, you can feel the chemistry, and… crickets.
You’re ready to take matters into your own hands and ask him out, but you don’t know how to do it without him losing interest, taking you for granted, or ruining the vibe you’ve been having so far…
It’s okay… I got you.
Today I’m sharing with you 5 powerful tips to move things forward and take initiative in a feminine way, so that he feels compelled to chase you!
How to Ask Him Out and Get HIM to Chase You
So that you can get things moving without seeming needy and scaring him off…
Instead, you’ll fire up his passion and his most primal instincts to seduce you and win your heart!
