We have three choices when we hear statements like this

Stupid, ignorant quote about balance
Bullcrap! As CEO, you can do whatever you see fit to blow the roof of conventional ‘wisdom’.

 

We have three choices when we hear statements like the one in the above photo:

1. react

2. respond

3. initiate

The challenge is time, and energy, and determination, and goals, and fear, and blah, blah, blah.

Do something instead of killing time. Because time is killing you. – Paulo Coelho

Figure it out. You’re are the CEO of You, Inc.

PS. We all want each other to succeed.

Insight: Some habits are embedded as children. Taking pictures of everyday life has been a habit of mine since my very first plastic camera that came free with a the purchase of a full tank of gas circa 1968.

Never owned a Jaguar, nor plan to.

The weirdness of thinking differently than the general masses is habit forming.

How can we tell?

Well, for starters, if we feel tinges of guilt, embarrassment, repercussion, teasing, or potential banishment, we are weird.

No?

Anything we do everyday is a habit.

Mental floss?

Check.

Now for a little exercise here?
