Life is not all palm trees and sunshine

Life is not all palm trees and sunshine.

Life is also:

rethinking • reprioritizing • recommitting

You may have to read the following a second time for it to really sink in.

Carrying a heavy burden or keeping a heavy burden away is the same thing. A lifetime battle that is hard as heck.

Should we try it if the benefits could be staggering?

You know the coolest thing about an intensely positive attitude?

You are ok doing the craziest experiments that:

  1. No one else is even thinking of doing.
  2. No one else would even dream of succeeding at it.

Twelve more days to complete one year of not using I, Me, my, or mine.

Not in:

  • Five blogs a day. And yes, that’s 1,865 posts.
  • Not in emails for Disney.
  • Not in emails for MLC.
  • Not in personal emails.
  • Not in a single social media update, reply, comment. Not one. For a year.

To be honest, it’s insane.

But some unexpected Magic happened.

Have you ever tried it? For a day? A week? Longer?

See how crazy it is.

The benefits are staggering.

First up was learning an invisible (unknown) definition of humility.

Hanukkah began yesterday. Six days until Milad un Nabi. One week until Christmas. Eight days until Kwanza.

Fun is in the mental freedom.

To work for years – a lifetime really – to create an unquenchable and habitually positive attitude is to enjoy the fun in the freedom and immunity from negative thoughts, people, messages.

A timely reminder from a window display the other night at the Mall at Millenia – Don’t crack under pressure.

Nothing great is ever launched with the bliss of certainty.

Just follow the template handed down to you

Orlando Professional Keynote Speakers

 

(photo: Orlando sky writer yesterday.)

Us and our future. Who’s in charge of granting us permission to break free from conformity and live like we mean it?

Better to just follow the template handed down to you?

The one that promises freedom to retire when you reach a milestone age and then you can live the American dream.

Just stay on the path long enough and you’ll eventually make it all the way to the front of the line.

You’ll be next. It will be your turn to enjoy the good life of retirement.

Right?
