Waiting to discuss money matters. While waiting there was time to flip though a bank brochure. The image above prompted the idea that mind, body, spirit, work, home create a continuous outer circle in life.

The second inside circle represents us. The very middle circle is our purpose.

Every moment of everyday we interact with, and filter, life’s (five) big choices. How we do this will direct, or not direct, our energy towards our purpose.

Bullseye, eh?

PS. Only three more days before the first month of retirement is over.

Is it okay to make stuff up?

Biltmore is nearby. Pretty famous, right. Not made up.

So what about Gibmore?

Not far from Biltmore. Not famous. Also not made up.

The Gibmore deck pictured above.

The name is made up but not the vibe.

Who says we can’t make stuff up and have it be as good as anything (maybe better) out there.

World’s first for profit non-profit?

Is five years enough time (or too much time) to lay a serious foundation?

 

What is this notion of a for profit non-profit?

Preparing to establish Mid Life Celebration, LLC in 2008, retaining an accountant was a top recommendation from other established small business entrepreneurial friends.

My vision was to create something that would raise a lot money and then give it to the folks dedicated to finding a cure for Crohn’s disease.

Calling the accountant, an unusual discovery – he didn’t do non-profits.

Immediately (must be deep Disney creativity) the notion of a for profit non-profit entered my consciousness.

The 10-year plan included five years to create the platform, become a brand, and most importantly, make money.

Four point nine years have passed.

Can I do it within five?

Insight: Dreams come true when we are flexible, creative, and determined to only accept success.

When is it appropriate to cough on the people around us?

The goal’s so big, it’s scary

 

When is it appropriate to cough on the people around us?

Never. Even more so when we’re contagious, and at the risk of an epidemic. Right?

But what if we spun it around and thought of our positive attitude as a virus, and contagious, and we wanted to spread it.

So yeah, go ahead. Cough away. And please don’t cover your mouth, nor use hand sanitizer.
