These two matter

Looking forward to the 27th summit this Summer. Context: this photo is taken from 8,200′ on my favorite and most accessible summit.

Only two people you need to feel proud of you.

Your seven-year old self and your 70-year old self.

Fix it bruh

You drove all over Windermere’s dirt roads.

Fix your mental self-talk.

Remember when you first started driving lessons with me on the neighborhood sand roads in Windermere? You thought you could never learn to drive. How’d that work out?

Senior Year Day 4, mentally

notes from father to son
The simplicity. The scalability. The harvest. Photo: from one of the 25,000 blog posts published thus far.

The key to remarkable happiness is extraordinary gratitude.

Senior Year Day 3 mentally

Video pulled from VSI’s Instagram feed. Had no idea we were being recorded.

Your mentor should be remarkably happy.

Senior Year Day 2, mentally

Magic Kingdom Town Square
Change what you see – even a small change in perspective – and what you see changes.

Remember that everyone is a beginner at first. Cherish the opportunity to be a competent incompetent. This was me when i became a public speaker in 1999. It was me when i started blogging in 2008. It was me becoming a father all those years ago.

Lean into any and all discomfort.

Have fun.
