Neighbor’s new home is almost ready for the foundation cement pour. To have a beautiful home or a beautiful soul and only being able to pick one, which would we pick?
Playing it safe denies our desire to become authentic.
Denying our desire to be authentic poisons our soul.
Our soul and our attitude are inseparable.
Poisoning the soul means poisoning the attitude.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Walt Disney…you know he had to be thinking, “What if this doesn’t work?”
The paradox of self-confidence is that most (all the ones i know anyway) confident people have a quiet, yet relentless, battle with self-doubt.
You’re only as good as your last presentation, your last race, your last prayer.
No one cares what you did in the past, if what you are currently doing isn’t amazing.
It comes with the territory.
Confidence is like a fire, without constant attention to adding fuel, it will dim and quite quickly, extinguish.

After 25 years, the ground breaking yesterday, we are finally getting next door neighbors. i texted our future neighbors to share my excitement with them.
Being authentic could be addicting.
Why?
Because you never have to think about what you said or did. You are always leading with admirable behavior.
Or, as our Son recently said, “You come across as a goody two-shoes”. By the way, he said that immediately after reading the email reply (a promised agreement with John Jolin) i sent to John Jolin in an effort to take the high road and not get caught up in the negative press that has proliferated in the past few years.
i feel exceptionally healthy and well by always taking the high road. It does kinda feel addicting. Like sunny weather.
