Writing blogs for money

Apple Music replay 2024
BTW, Apple said i listened to 243,000 minutes of music in 2024. If you do the math, you might think it’s obsessive. Or, you might think, “This dude loves listening to Jimmy Buffett.”.

There’s no logical way to explain why i write so prolifically.

i swear to God it’s a mystery to me.

Maybe this Jimmy Buffet song explains what i’m feeling through the lyrics from what he was feeling back in the early 1970’s…

Email signature 2014

Mid Life Celebration, business card
Old photo from 2008: First business card, 2008. Originally, there were four categories (pictured here). Then a blinding flash of the obvious: The fifth category is the large box holding the four smaller boxes.
Old photo from 2014: Love seeing this 2013-version of my personal-business email signature.

11 months (Jan-Nov 2024) divided by 223k equals a 20k minutes per month. That’s 338 hours per month. That’s about 11 hours per day.

Lots of songs.

Lots of bands.

Lots of videos about songs.

It’s a small world after all has a new verse here.

Overfocusing with your mind

disney customer service speaker
Over-focus on the same thing YOU used to under-focus on or ignore.

Over-focusing with my mind?

How can i not?

How does anyone not over focus?

It’s the key wisdom that Disney applies to EVERYTHING.

During my lifetime at Disney, i learned how to do it.

During my lifetime at Disney, i learned how and why it works.

This is why i over-focus on my mind, body, spirit, work, and home. Been doing it for four decades.

Time on my mind

Team Disney building 2007
Team Disney building 2007. The building’s theme is time. The building’s length is the distance sound travels in one second.

Time waits for no one.

Everyone gets 24 hours each day.

i believe time means nothing to the cosmos.

i also believe the human construct of time fits nicely into what humans believe to be a (mostly) civilized existence.
