15-second video: Yesterday. Friday. Quittin’ time for most people. Still thinking, past quittin’ time. Thinking is my highest priority work task. The “Severance question” has to do with an analogy from a recent client conversation.

The pinnacle work effort is when your effort never feels like work.

The top photo is an illustration of what can happen when you love doing something that doesn’t feel like work.

i wrote five daily, differently-themed blog posts for five years while i worked and traveled the globe full-time at Disney Institute.

Every time i thought about starting a morning by skipping writing due to a demanding schedule, one thought always convinced me to not skip a day.

The thought?

This is what i’d be doing if i wasn’t doing this

Can’t imagine there ever being a morning where i don’t feel like reflecting on what i learned yesterday, what i get to do today, and what i hope for tomorrow.

i knew when i was at the pinnacle of my Disney and Disney Institute career…i’d need/want to start every morning expressing my gratitude for another day by thinking and writing about it.

Will i do it until the morning i don’t wake up for?

Seems like a safe bet.

Today begins year 16.

Never missing a day.

Since April Fools Day, 2009.

Five daily, differently-themed blog posts.

Mind, body, spirit, work, home.

Just wanted to get writing practice to build my confidence so i could write, and publish, my first book, Mid Life Celebration: rethink • reprioritize •recommit

Note: Technically, i should be back in Glacier, however, still in Orlando recovering from emergency eye surgery.

Thinking well is a privilege

Thinking efficiently is useful.

For lifelong, repetitive, common purposes.

Thinking effectively trumps efficiency, however.

Why?

Doesn’t matter if you’re making great time through life if you’re heading in the wrong direction. Common sense, eh?

But thinking well – deeply and broadly – bottomline, is where your life energy emanates.

Dwell on this.

Meditate with this.

Dream with this.

Act on this.

Never waste your glorious privilege.

22-second video: Heads-up about blog layout changes.

Favorite growth mindset video…6:10 video…watched many times before bedtime with our son.

Glacier National Park is in my top five favorite places on the planet…35-minute overview…

Culture = habits. Habits = results. Therefore culture = results. A simple way to break a bad habit TED Talk.

These three videos have been removed from this blog’s footer section.

Why?

The upgrade from WordPress Twenty Twenty-One theme to Twenty Twenty-Two.

But why?

Seamless theme upgrades where a click away. Now, this upgrade is beyond my experience level. Once my experience catches up, i might resume footer videos.

Note: This is going down November 11, 2022.
