Do you see your transformational opportunity?

Do you see your transformational opportunity?

Two choices every day.

Autopilot:

  • no plan
  • reacting to life as it comes
  • unintentional

Present:

  • game plan
  • proactively influencing life as it comes
  • intentional

 

Pick one.

This test will be repeated every day until you die

Are you going to write the book you privately tell yourself you want to write? Photo: Yesterday at Barnes and Noble.

 

This test repeats itself every day until you die.

You make, or don’t make a decision, and then you wonder if you did the right thing.

Or, you agonize over not making the best decision and beat yourself up. You know what you should have done, but you didn’t.

This doubt and corresponding fear become an insidious habit. You justify this in your mind. The security in playing it safe feels better than the opportunity in being brave.

Plenty of time to write – still finishing up the Disney Leadership book.

 

One Person’s Dream is all you have.

Never let your memories be bigger than your dreams.

Two weeks and two days away from 2017.

What’s going to drive you to your best year ever?

Comfort Or Fuel For Our Mind?

Sugar is one of two things: colorful and fun, or, invisibly inserted as one of our food’s top ingredients (high fructose corn syrup).

 

This was initially a tough subject to write about. Glad i had the courage to address my issue.

Comfort or fuel for our mind?

Last night our son and i were talking about eliminating sugar from my life.

i said Americans grow up on sugar, making a lifetime habit challenging to kick.

And why shouldn’t we consume sugar, everyone else is doing it, so it can’t be all that bad.

Right?

If we saw sugar as fuel, and if it was great fuel, then consuming it makes sense.

But it’s not great fuel.

It’s a drug.

Sugar is the new smoking.

Everyone turns their head to the addiction and serious health consequences.

Shifting gears here…

Do you see your thoughts as fuel or as comfort?

Positive thoughts are fuel.

Pessimistic thoughts are addictive drugs – to comfort us when we believe life isn’t fair.

The privilege of a lifetime

Deleting computer files
Decide and let go of anything not serving you. This requires self-reflection, vision, and courage.

 

The privilege of a lifetime is to live as yourself.

Our attitude determines our path.

Our path directs our journey.

Our journey is our final exam.
