Easter.

March 27, 2016

Give all of yourself.

To your dreams.

To the people you love.

That’s doing what Jesus would do did.

As i write this (now, December 18, 2015, 6:42am) we are one week away from Christmas.

When you accomplish something you never meant to do

Disney Conference Keynote Speaker
Yesterday i used “Burn the ships” as the driving force behind leaving Disney after 30 years.

 

When you accomplish something you never meant to do you have the potential to reflect on it in a profound way, but only if you aren’t too busy to miss the opportunity.

Self-reflection may be the most important tool for living a life focused on living in the moment.

Living in the moment is a dream for most of us.

To be present.

Constantly.

When you get to know yourself better, you can appreciate your strengths, which you might otherwise be oblivious to. Realizing the right strength (that had been invisible to you) can set you free to live in a way that astonishes you in it’s goodness.

When you get to know yourself better, you can appreciate that your self-imposed limitations do not serve you, or others, very well. This is a blinding flash of the obvious. This also allows you to shed what is holding you back.

Ultimately, you accomplish something you never meant to do.

Let’s agree to disagree

Orlando based motivational speaker
We biked to school and back on last Saturday and Sunday.

 

If you only share the good and never reveal the bad, no one will really know you.

Our son said the other night in the pool, “Nothing ever bothers you”.

“Finally”, i thought to myself, “He’s seeing the consistency in my behavior”.

He didn’t say, “Not much bothers you”.

Or, “You hardly ever get upset or angry”.

He said, “Never”.

My advice to you:

Go through life assuming everyone has had it at least as bad as you.

Use this knowledge to inspire yourself to understand that those who live vibrantly, are going through the same hardships as you.

The value of one ordinary day

Apple Store team meeting
Yesterday morning

 

“How was your day?”, we often get asked.

Yesterday waiting for the Apple Store to open, my reflection in the lower right quadrant, and a team meeting in the upper right quadrant. There for a one-to-one personal tutorial.

Later in the day:

Family movie outing to see Tomorrowland at Disney’s Pleasure Island AMC 24 theaters. It was over-the-top inspiring.

Driving home, a dinner stop at Contempo Cafe.

Arriving home, another client check arrived in the mailbox from a speaking engagement two days ago.

Perfect timing of the Belmont Stakes to see American Pharoah win the Triple Crown.

Then finally, watched audition number two of America’s Got Talent, a show about people chasing their dream.

All that inspiration made it challenging to want to go to sleep.
