Each day we have the option of living like we mean it, or postponing that for another day, when, theoretically, we’ll have time, energy and courage for it.

The value of one ordinary day
“How was your day?”, we often get asked.
Yesterday waiting for the Apple Store to open, my reflection in the lower right quadrant, and a team meeting in the upper right quadrant. There for a one-to-one personal tutorial.
Later in the day:
Family movie outing to see Tomorrowland at Disney’s Pleasure Island AMC 24 theaters. It was over-the-top inspiring.
Driving home, a dinner stop at Contempo Cafe.
Arriving home, another client check arrived in the mailbox from a speaking engagement two days ago.
Perfect timing of the Belmont Stakes to see American Pharoah win the Triple Crown.
Then finally, watched audition number two of America’s Got Talent, a show about people chasing their dream.
All that inspiration made it challenging to want to go to sleep.

Does the way we start our day have a direct impact
Does the way we start our day have a direct impact on our ability to excel?
Duh.
Focus and discipline shape our attitude. We know this. But do we champion the cause?
Do we?
Honestly?
Do we overmanage daily details that others either undermanage or ignore?
Do we?
Are we being intentional where others are unintentional?
Are we?
The woman asked the recent retiree, “Are you allowed to talk about Disney?”
He replied, “Not going to be talking about Disney. Going to be talking about my career, and life. You know, lessons learned, wisdom gained, joyful and painful experiences, people, challenges, triumphs, etc. Coincidently, the past 30 years have been spent at Disney.”

How do we improve without these special, daily moments?
Here’s to hoping today provides us multiple moments of undistracted, unmedicated, peaceful introspection, in spite of the heavy burdens on our shoulders.
In these moments, our attitude is adjusted in a more deliberate way.
An intentional, good way.
This basically is a daily habit we master or don’t master.
PS. The photo above shows a bar set dangerously low. How about:
“Go a lifetime without complaining and see what happens.”

Does our attitude drive our decision making. (Pick one: no or yes)
We think today is just another ordinary day. As we think, we become. One ordinary day at a time.
We think today is another wonderful gift. As we think, we become. One extraordinary day at a time.
Choose one.
Everyday.
