Do you have annual performance reviews at work? Or if you’re retired, did you used to?

Do you, or did you, believe they had significant value to how you are/were paid?

Do you, or did you, believe that anyone ever looks at them after you and your leader sign it?

Boomers have ‘been there done that’ on many things and one of the realities we’ve learned is there are many things we do to comply with mass production.

With a positive outlook, Boomers could instead craft their performance review on the Internet.

If you are still a high-achieving professional, Google your name.

Or search your name on Amazon or You Tube.

There’s your grade.

Do you remember one of the most exciting times of your youth?

Do you remember one of the most exciting times of your youth? The anticipation of something that you knew would be mind-blowing, challenging, and spectacular?

Do those feelings ever return for an encore?

Praying it is so for you.

Yesterday made the first official call to learn about more structured planning for the future. Our attitude is what determines whether we think 10 years out is too soon to start planning.

Hoping incredible youthful feelings return for an encore.

It’s our responsibility.

Simplifying a complex midlife reality

jeff noel signing the book Mid Life Celebration
Wrote a book about the paradox of midlife crisis

 

Harvard Business Review ran an article eight years ago about how it is extraordinarily difficult for someone who has comprehensive knowledge to easily communicate it so someone else can see what they see.

It’s called the curse of knowledge.

Explained here: Tappers versus listeners.

Midlife crisis is finally arriving at the place in life we worked decades to get to, but in looking around we think to ourselves, “This isn’t what I wanted.”

There’s a book that describes the exact opposite mindset of a mind life crisis.

It’s called Mid Life Celebration.

Is it possible to forget how to complain?

Not everything is as clear as we would like

 

Is it possible to rethink things, reprioritize those things, and then recommit to the new order in a way that transforms us from who we used to be?

Yes.

I have forgotten how to complain.

This does not mean there is not a long list of things to complain about.

Shoot, my list is as long as anyone’s.

But you would never know.

(ps. rumor has it yesterday’s keynote was remarkable)
