We saw an ocean of well-deserved accolades for MLK yesterday, on every social media channel.
You have a recurring dream, right?
i too have a recurring dream – that we achieve a manageable life pace where lessons, virtues, and ideals inspire us daily, not just when prompted by the calendar.
Free at last.
Not talking about MLK right now, i’m referring to yesterday’s choice to not use slides for the first time ever.
A 20-year speaking habit of always using slides came to an end. Learned to always use slides from the best, Disney Institute. And followed my deeply-engrained habit the first five years out on my own.
But it’s a new year.
Breakthroughs do not happen in our comfort zone. Tweet this.
Free at last.

Having fun and being creative is so easy as an entrepreneur.
The early days, weeks, months, and years are challenging. You don’t know if it will ever work. By the way, it took me six years before i had any revenue.
No one hands you a written contact guaranteeing your idea will become good enough to change your life and the life of those you love.
The one thing about being an entrepreneur that is so cool.
You can do whatever you want, whenever you want, for whomever you want.
Of course, there’s a catch – if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is – you have to be able to earn enough revenue to cover everything so you can continue being an entrepreneur.
If you solve that, you earn the freedom to do what you love and the ability to do what you love in a way that makes our world a better place.

Yesterday 8:00am, Thanksgiving Day 2017, at Ocoee High School.
Volunteers line up to have their vehicles loaded with boxes of food.
Driving directions are printed up – one page for each Family. We received eight pages.
What began as a yet-to-be Father’s vision to do something to give back to those less fortunate – as a Family (with children) – has continued for 18 years.
Cheryl was not yet pregnant with our Son when we first volunteered on Thanksgiving 1999.
Miraculously – and at the time we didn’t know – Cheryl was pregnant when we returned a month later for Christmas Day deliveries.
And even on Easter 2000, we were still four months away from our Son’s birth.
The odds of us doing this three times a year, for 18 consecutive years, was a long-shot at best.
Something about serving less fortunate neighbors on days when American tradition has us focus on our own Families – this felt like something worth starting.
As we struggled to become parents from 1992 – 2000, we began shedding things that no longer served us.
Classic rethinking, reprioritizing and recommitting.
