Eliminating paper (work).

Photos include visual evidence of:

Our first home had 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 1-car garage (1,100 sq. feet).

That house cost $47,400 in 1985.

Our first mortgage was $45,000.

When mailing our monthly mortgage payment, an extra principal payment of just $52 saved us over $700 in interest.

i burned dozens of paper files from our 35-year marriage’s history.

All Souls Day 2018

florida bug
Yesterday. This beautiful creature landed on a branch next to me. Didn’t have to move an inch to get this photo.

 

Knowing stuff is easy.

Doing stuff is hard.

Deep down in our soul, we know this.

Be an example, not a warning.

Quit it like you mean it

just do it
From an email i subscribe to. Yesterday’s in-box.

 

Quit making excuses.

Quit putting it off.

Quit complaining about it.

Quit dreaming about it.

Quit whining about it.

Quit crying about it.

Quit believing you can’t.

Quit worrying if you can.

Quit waiting until you’re older.

Quit waiting until you’re skinnier, richer, braver.

Quit waiting for conditions to be better.

Quit it already.

When the student is mentally ready

Digital learning (and teaching) gets easier and more significant every year. Photo: iPhone XS screen.

 

When the student is ready the teacher will appear.

Are you ready?

This is classic wisdom:

“You can’t control what happens to you, only how you respond.”

 

My five daily, differently-themed blog posts all carry this wise approach to life.

We think (MidLifeCelebration.com).

We move (Lane8.org).

We feel (JeffNoel.org).

We work (JungleJeff.net).

We dwell (JeffNoel.com).

When, or if, you feel ready, you have thousands (17.5k as of today) of posts to stimulate your learning.

Reflection is like money in the bank

Delta priority boarding receipt
Had forgotten i purchased priority boarding for the trip out.

 

Reflection is like money in the bank.

Being cash rich but time poor means you have money in the bank, but you are too busy to spend time on yourself and with people you care about.

Your time is spent on being excellent (a positive assumption) in your career, but not having enough time to get a decent night’s sleep.

So yeah, self-reflection is a special kind of wealth.

When you start sleeping well and start awakening early enough to self-reflect, you’ll still be busy.

A “healthier” busy.

And then you can be bold enough and brave enough to be true to yourself.

If not now (or soon), when?

If not ever, why?
