Quote of the Day: Bridget Hall on Love

Notice the word “love.” Not “like,” not “enjoy,” not “I’m into it”, love. Love is the level where a hobby becomes a compass, where you stop negotiating with excuses and start rearranging your life around what makes you feel most alive. “Snowboarding! I love it! Some of the best places to snowboard are Telluride and Park Cities, Utah.”

That’s more than a travel tip, it’s a declaration of agency. When you name what you love, you also reveal what you’re willing to practice, risk, and return to. Snowboarding asks for commitment: the early wake-up, the sore legs, the humility of falling, the patience of learning edges and balance. But it pays you back with momentum, literal and psychological. It teaches you to trust small adjustments, to keep your eyes up, to ride through uncertainty rather than freeze inside it. That’s freedom you can train.

Hall’s shout-out to Telluride and Park City (and the wider “Park Cities” orbit) matters because destinations are strategy. The right environment pulls you into better behavior. Great mountains make it easier to show up, easier to stay curious, easier to keep going when you’re tired. In your own life, “Telluride” might be a calendar block, a gym you actually enjoy, a mentor who raises your standards, or a team that turns effort into camaraderie. Engineer your conditions and you’ll upgrade your growth without relying on willpower alone.

Bridget Hall understands disciplined repetition: as a renowned American model and entrepreneur, she built a career at the highest levels, including Sports Illustrated and Victoria’s Secret, where consistency and composure are non-negotiable.

Today, pick one slope you can ride: schedule a 45-minute “practice session” for the thing you love, choose the place that makes it easiest to begin, and commit to showing up even if you fall a little, may your day be bright, brave, and in motion.
