Post Op Day 21, mind

12-second video: Today. October 6, 2023…8:00 AM.
High Mountain Lake
Jody Maberry texted this photo yesterday. That’s me lower right. Longest hike in 50 years of visits…15 miles. Wondering if future visits will be one-eye or two-eye sighted. Btw, that’s the Continental Divide.

You will excel at world-class customer service when you excel at being a world-class customer.

In sharing the Disney Compass this morning to the office manager, it dawned on me…

When you not only know your customer but understand them, you tee up “surprise and delight”.

Surprise and delight is the bull’s-eye for creating “wow“!

Anyone can create it for anyone.

Why the customer service world hasn’t embedded this as a non-negotiable is beyond my comprehension.

Apple Watch message from Apple
Never owned a new car. Not to save money although you do. And yet i’m always wanting THE most excellent work tool. Not trying to spend frivolously although it may seem so. Ps. The green medical bracelet comes off in mid-November.

Know what indulgence you can justify.

dad

For the first time since 2009 i seriously considered passing on the newest iPhone.

After thoughtful consideration, it got ordered.

Private.

Members (residents) only.

Every day is Super Bowl Sunday at Disney. Transfer that to your attitude and see what happens.

It was weird driving to Disney’s Golden Oak today.

Why?

Because i prefer to bicycle there.

But on the two-week anniversary of eye surgery #2, Doc still wants me to be a couch potato. So i drove this morning.

Post Op Day 13, mind

16-second video: Last night. A glorious, soaking rain. Standing water remained this morning. When the ground is saturated tree roots are thoroughly watered.

Rain is good. Except when you have an outdoor picnic without cover.

dad

Started today thinking about how lucky i am to be a citizen.

Confident the international media frequently paints us as buffoons to other countries.

All i’m saying is if it looks like a circus, sounds like a circus, and smells like a circus…it’s probably a circus.

Personally, i sure could use a break. For like…forever.

My growth mindset tells me a kinder, quieter, gentler world is in the future.

i cannot change the world but i can change my world.

18-second video: Couch-potato-ing is challenging. Doing what i can. The best options are scalable. This video shows a scalable option.

Condensing thoughts is challenging. Practice helps. Obviously.
