Yes, we are open

Fear and open-minded are not mutually exclusive. But fear and action usually are. Be open minded for action.

Yes, we are open…minded.

Mental momentum

A person at lakeshore is the size of a spec. The lake is already a mile high. We are well above the lake and climbing.

Mental momentum.

Ever been on a roll with something, getting into a euphoric, yet calm flow state?

Congratulations.

Happy for you.

Busy people only hear about this from others who have intentionally slowed down to speed up. This used to be me, for 2/3’s of life.

Said that to say this…

The coolest thing about writing prolifically – which includes taking writing risks that may not work – is that there’s rarely an opportunity for anyone wondering…to know when the post was written.

This is weirdly (but not weird to me) the coolest thing.

Obviously, dates and references are occasionally made. But the distance is growing between pinpointing where i am currently, based on what you read on any given day.

Being unpredictable and willing to do things that might not work attracts growth mindset opportunities i never knew existed.

Super believable

Most of the world hates war, that’s super believable.

Super believable.

Four super believable growth mindset behaviors:

  1. Being disinterested can make you seem non-threatening
  2. Being invisible can make you seem normal
  3. Being quiet can make you seem harmonious
  4. Being noncommittal can make you seem likable

These four growth revelations are only possible from:

  1. Being present
  2. Being mindful
  3. Being motivated
  4. Writing like a beast

Unbelievable

Disney Cast Member Sevice Awards
Being helpful, being a leader, being creative – these traits are in my DNA. These traits were developed and honed less a mile from our home.

Unbelievable.

Four unbelievable growth mindset aha’s:

  1. Being a helpful neighborhood elder can make you seem nosey
  2. Being an avid photographer can make you seem suspicious
  3. Being a driven professional can make you seem pushy
  4. Being honest can make you seem naive

These four growth revelations are only possible from:

  1. Being present
  2. Being mindful
  3. Being motivated
  4. Writing like a beast
