It’s all we have.
If we don’t master it, it’s still all we have.

When a refresher refreshes you
What constitutes magic and how can one be sure when it happens?
The Apple Store group training class was for iCloud Basics. Counting the instructor Adam and two other Apple employees stocking shelves, there were seven of us in the store just before 8am. It would be another two hours before the store opened to customers.
As Adam was setting up, i walked over to the accessories wall and pulled a Magic Mouse down, walked back over to the class table and used my Apple Store App to purchase it. The three other Apple customers must have wondered what i was doing as i opened the box and began using the mouse.
Pretty sure that was magic.
Note: You do not need an Apple Store employee’s assistance to purchase many of the Apple Store products. Game changing.
Insight: This Apple Store example inspires and challenges me to think about creating Magic for my clients. If we aren’t thinking game changing, we are thinking too small.

Finding it hard to breathe becomes status quo
It’s simply easier to do scary things than it is to think about doing scary things, even though it seems backwards.
The emotional burden and drag on our attitude is insidiously heavy when we carry around unfulfilled and untried ideas.
Rather try and fail than play it safe.
Playing it safe leads to regrets.
Regrets that we discount and amass to the point of suffocation?

Working in Disney’s Magic Kingdom yesterday
At the last minute, was able to rearrange my day to accommodate meeting a client at Disney’s Magic Kingdom.
Wasn’t planning on having an office chair with such a stunning view.
This is like inspiration overload.

The biggest difference between them and us
The biggest difference between those focused on thriving and those focused on surviving is the gap in their beliefs.
The gap between rising everyday believing you owe the world your best or rising everyday and believing it would be safer (better) to hold back.
We can’t fail if we don’t try.
To even think for a minute that there’s an ounce of validity in that last statement is, well, insidiously influential.
