Holding on to too much, we are weighed down

You can see the coolest things in this Orlando town called Walt Disney World Resort.

 

Will you push the day or will the day pull you?

Holding on to too much, we are weighed down. And the drag on our potential joy today is severely inhibited.

It does me.

Big time.

The behavioral psychologist’s words from two days ago are still ringing in my ears. Long story short:

  • 90-minute flight, random pairing
  • a behavioral psychologist on his own for 18 years
  • looked to be in his mid to late fifties
  • worked for big-name consulting firm in Philly prior
  • was reading a book about habits
  • we talked about habits for 10 minutes
  • he concluded he should take his own advice more often

As a professional speaker, it was a golden moment to reinforce a life in a world class culture. One that can stand the test of time against the best in the world.
