Time flies dangerously fast

College president quote
Inspiring, right? That’s a President’s job. Every leader’s job, really.

 

Some people can’t wait for 5pm, some can’t wait for Friday, others can’t wait for the holidays at the end of the year, and some people can’t wait for their lives to settle down so they can finally pursue happiness.

But you don’t have to be one of them.

Please don’t wait until your life is almost over to realize how good it has been.

Because i don’t doesn’t mean i don’t want to

excuses, regrets, opportunities
Excuses, regrets, opportunities…used Siri to text me the above thought while biking yesterday,

 

Because i don’t doesn’t mean i don’t want to…

Just because i’m always positive doesn’t mean i’m not tempted to be negative.

Just because i exercise regularly doesn’t mean i wouldn’t rather relax at home.

Just because i rarely eat sugar doesn’t mean i don’t want to eat chocolate all day, every day.

Just because i go to bed early and awaken early doesn’t mean i don’t want to stay up late or sleep in.

Just because i consistently go to Church doesn’t mean i’d rather use Sunday mornings for something else.

Just because i do not get angry doesn’t mean i don’t want to get angry.

Just because i work so hard to be amazing in my profession doesn’t mean i’d rather spend less time studying, networking, writing, and chasing impossible goals.

Just because i’m decently organized, doesn’t mean there are many days where it is so hard to make decisions on what to keep, what to donate, and what to recycle.

Just because i love technology doesn’t mean i love all the time it takes to keep up with it.

Years ago, i purchased the domain name www.ExcuseWhisperer.com

Wishing everyone the best today.

Courage is contagious, yet some are immune

Disney Keynote Speakers
Retired from Disney, but not from working.

 

Disney Customer Service Speakers
This was a piece of trash i picked up at Magic Kingdom a couple days ago. Courage and Magic travel together.

 

Facebook algorithms auto-populate “memories” from updates – “on this day xx years ago” – here’s yesterday’s:

Courage is contagious. Jealous, negative people can’t catch it, but passionate, ordinary people can. We all get 24 hours. We all have the weight of the world on our shoulders. Put up or shut up. No?

Courage.

But some people resist courage.

i know i did for far too long.

Something incredible happened during the 2008-09 economic tsunami.

Prompted by Disney layoffs that didn’t have a logical or predictable formula, i found myself compelled to .think .differently

Two ways of looking at Christmas (or everything)

 

Two ways of looking at Christmas (or everything).

Same words.

Different focus.

This is what our life looks like to outsiders.

Pick one way to see things.

Merry Christmas.

Happy present moment.

These things are feedback for you

Disney Institute teachers
May each of us be considered worthy of “best teacher” status. Some people dislike their teacher(s).

 

The thing about a positive mental attitude is this – the people who have an exceptionally positive attitude have worked hard (probably a lifetime) to hone this seemingly gifted persona.

So, please know it’s like exercise, or any other skill, you get better results the more you apply yourself.

Anger, jealousy, excuses, apathy, and any other non-helpful activity is feedback for you – you still have miles to go before you sleep.

Wishing you the best. You deserve it, but it doesn’t matter what i think.
