Have you ever launched something big, yet secretly worried if you covered all the bases?

Buffer’s 11 tips for creating engaging content that you’re audience will appreciate has me zeroed in on the very first one.

This new website’s voice will be completely different than these five daily personal blogs.

How exciting is it to move forward doing something completely different?

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Mid Life Celebration versus Disney

Yesterday on the walk back from the ATT store.

 

The paradox of two loves.

Mid Life Celebration versus Disney.

For three full days (today is the fourth) we’ve been surrounded by 80 and 90 year olds.

Mid Life Celebration (MLC), while on the back burner since retirement due to unexpected Disney content demand, became even more important.

Aging well with a balanced approach to mental, physical, spiritual, work, and home has never been so clear.

The one year absence from MLC has exposed me to something with greater certainty…

The original vision to challenge 80 million Baby Boomers “to do something great” before they die is what the world needs.

An illuminated mind thrives on learning

Yesterday morning, client meeting.

 

An illuminated mind, like an illuminated hotel, can be a joy to behold.

Learning is like light. And often, learning arrives at our doorstep when we practice exceptional listening.

Yesterday, our 60-90 minute meeting went 4.5 hours. It flew by. Mostly because of the wonderful and fascinating storytelling by the senior executive i was meeting for the first time.

Can’t remember the last time i was such a gracious listener. It was illuminating. Priceless really.

The value of enterprise and the secret to success

Middle School graduation playbill
This only happens once for each person.

 

Last night was a once-in-a-lifetime moment.

What advice can we offer an 8th-grader?

We need something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for.

Make the assumption these three are lifelong goals.

Suggestion:

Over-manage the same things others under-manage or ignore. Focus and discipline only fail when they are under-managed or ignored.
