The growth mindset daily habit of noticing.

The easier a mental habit is to do, the more likely it will last a lifetime. Good habits and not-so-good habits. Obviously, pick the best habits. Minimum effort, maximum results.

Massively productive mental habit is discerning good from not-so-good.

New dress for success

8-second 2020 video: Fun video revealing the two new dress for success rules.

New dress for success:

  1. Passion
  2. Enthusiasm

This is for work success, and, home success.

Organizational vibrancy, and, personal vibrancy.

Now and later

Now.

Later.

Now and later…

  • Living in the now.
  • Leading for the later.

Learn how to ‘learn for a lifetime’, with a caveat.

The caveat: learn how to maximize results and minimize effort.

Transition from student to teacher.

From knowledge consumer to knowledge creator.

Surprising win: to teach is to learn twice. As you prolifically create, you prolifically learn.

There’s a knowledge-karma few know about. Fewer still experience knowledge karma. It’s rare.

Transforming yourself to this place may be the only way to ‘know’ someone who has it.

You’re getting inside intel from a 60-something human. A human willing to walk alone for the greater good – encouraging others to pursue personal vibrancy.

If all i do is influence the two most important people in my life…

Awesome.

Oh, that’s right

A milestone in 2022: 62 days in Glacier National Park. Previous record was 50 days – in 2021 (and in 2020).

Oh, that’s right, resolutions always never work.

But you’re reframing that.

Resolutions always work.

We must become comfortable knowing that resolve takes time.

We must also become comfortable that belief morphs into faith, faith morphs into action, action transforms into commitment, and commitment blossoms into purpose.

Didn’t reach 22 years of sobriety overnight.

The original act was simply to make December 31 the first day without a single drop of alcohol.

The next act was to repeat that accomplishment (an entire 24-hour period without a drop of alcohol) a second consecutive day.

Pro tip for 2023: Pick a calendar date that has an inspiring personal narrative. Hint: January 1 resolutions are bad karma.

Personal examples: Have used April Fools Day, Tax Day (April 15), Halloween, Thanksgiving, and New Years Eve. Personal narrative is amplified when you intentionally pick a memorable and meaningful milestone launch date.

  • April Fools Day – began blogging
  • April 15 (Tax day) – began running one-mailbox-a-day
  • Halloween – retired from Disney (scary)
  • Thanksgiving – announced my first book was published
  • New Years Eve – quit drinking on world’s biggest drinking day

Honor some limits

Went as far as allowed, about nine miles to The Loop, from Avalanche Creek parking.

Honor some limits. Like official road closures.

Never honor dogma and tradition limits.

Respect historical limits.

Then ask:

  • What do I want?
  • How bad do I want it?
  • What price am I willing to pay?

High odds limits won’t help you.

So don’t have any.
