For what it’s worth

Have intended to do this for years. Still haven’t done it. But i have left a trail for our son.

No one builds a life on what they’re gonna do.

If you read these blogs, you should know something that may not be obvious…

Have been teaching our Son since he was two about everything i write about on these blogs.

It dawned me yesterday that that may not be obvious.

Today’s ‘quote’ is from a recurring theme in the If Disney Ran Your Life podcast.

Disney Decade Retirement

Today, right now as i write this. Airport.

My original Disney retirement plan was after 40 years, not 30.

dad

Retired in 2014.

Thought it would be 2024.

Grateful to have been in the right place at the right time. Was able to make the early-retirement decision without sacrificing a Disney pension.

i know Disney colleagues that “retired from Disney” before retirement age. Some sacrificed 20 or more years of service and a bona fide Disney pension. Starting something new trumped a forthcoming Disney pension.

Today is our last full day in Glacier.

With freezing temps and cloudy skies, it would be cool to sit fireside, outside. A rip-roaring’ fire, good company, food and drinks.

Since that ain’t happening today, we go to a more relaxed agenda.

First time here. Have had several years of eating next door but never setting foot in here. Today changed that math.

The generosity of mental improvement is in showing others what is possible.

Improve like you mean it.
