Fear is one of two things for everyone

Lyft rides summary
After a lifetime of driving myself to the airport, enter Lyft. i will never use a taxi again. Doubtful i will ever drive myself and park at the airport again.

I have lived my life according to this principle: If I’m afraid of it, then I must do it.  – Erica Jong

Fear is one of two things for everyone.

  1. Discomfort
  2. Invitation

Discomfort doesn’t nurture nor feed our comfort zone, so we avoid or escape it.

Invitations are opportunities for the taking.

Daily distractions and “Squirrel” are synonymous

Disney speaker jeff
Yesterday walking home from gym.  Distractions are everywhere. Reasoning (excuses?) is easy. Can you say, “Squirrel!”?

Yesterday and this morning:

Did you hit the snooze button?

Did you get at least an hour of outside sunlight?

Sleep late?

Exercise?

Floss last night?

Driven by digital notifications?

Wakeup without a plan?

Dwell on problems?

How much quiet time did you get?

Dinner at least three hours before sleep?

Good breakfast?

Sugar intake?

Help someone who will never know you helped?

Can you imagine saying the appropriate yes, or no, to these? Every day?

i think you should.

What are you afraid of?

Reflections from the longest (timewise) trip ever (Orlando to Vail) a few days ago…

air travel
Leaving Orlando the other day.

iPhone deconstructed
First class seats.

Denver snow
Look closely and it will make sense….Denver snow on a field as we near the runway.

Westin Vail
Westin Vail…checked on airport to Westin shuttles. There are none. Hadn’t heard from the client regarding my request for pre-arranged airport transfer.

Denver snow
De-icing. A medical emergency on an arriving flight put the airport on hold. The backlog for de-icing after the plane landed took our plane two hours to recover from.

Colorado
Colorado…a road and a river.

Colorado
Colorado…the plateau gives way to massive erosion for thousands of years (or more).

Colorado
Colorado plateau remnants.

Colorado
Grand Junction, Colorado. We deplaned and the regional pilots bought everyone pizza and snacks. It was a 16-hour day door-to-door for me.

What are you afraid of?

In life or three days ago?

Three days ago.

i was afraid i wouldn’t get to the speaking venue by 8am the next day.

All told, it took 16 hours from door to door.

In life.

i’m afraid there are people who are afraid of life and there’s nothing i can do.
