Mental inaction

Social media image and quote — After this quote yesterday, reflecting on my decades-long journey.

i pray i am on the best path from all the path choices.
dad

You may think your life is good.

But how do you come to any sort of reasonably accurate evaluation?

Use observation, education, and teaching to expose your reality.

Do your thoughts cage you?

Do your thoughts free you?

Bonus question: Is it possible to be both caged and free?

Mental Rock & Roll

It’s only Rock and Roll, but i like it.
Rolling Stones (and dad)

Led Zeppelin names their first three albums 1, 2, and 3.

That’s it.

Just a number.

Technically the first album wasn’t called Led Zeppelin 1, it was simply entitled Led Zeppelin.

Society coined it Led Zeppelin 1.

Makes sense.

And then their 4th album was untitled.

But since it was their fourth, everyone just calls it Led Zeppelin 4.

Btw, 4 features Rock and Roll’s greatest song, Stairway to Heaven.

Interesting to me is the band intentionally named their second and third albums, 2 and 3.

Disney DNA can’t unsee

Chair used as a door stop — A low bar (or desperation) rationalizes what we call this at Disney as “bad show”. There’s not a single door widget in the entire restaurant? Or perhaps put something creative (and fun) on the chair.

Responsibility frightens people.
dad

Humans are perfectly imperfect.

Speaking from experience, accountability is scary when the bar is set super high.

A low bar, not so much.

Low bars are kinda like happy hour when you’re on vacation.
