What’s your attitude regarding impossible?
What’s your attitude regarding doing seemingly insignificant work year after year?
Just realized 150 days ago the 14,000th Mid Life Celebration, LLC post went live.
Such a small, meaningless event in world history.
Such a brilliant testament to slow and steady, the journey of a thousand miles begins wth a single step, and a year from now you’ll wish you had begun today.
Rock on with your slow and steady self.

Serendipitous quote yesterday from LinkedIn. No individual writes 5 daily, differently-themed blog posts every day of the year, year after year. But since April Fools Day 2009, that changed.
Fool, stay different, it’s the only way to keep your freedom. And the only way to avoid fitting into someone else’s standards.
.think .differently
Easy as heck to think about. Hard as heck to live out every day.
It remains difficult until the point where it no longer becomes difficult.
Today is year nine’s first post.
Post number 14,611.
Day number 2,923.
From, “Never in a million years” to “i can’t start a day without it.”

News of Walt’s death in 1966 spread quickly.
And today (the 50th anniversary of Walt’s untimely death) reminded me of something many people don’t realize…
Frequently while facilitating “leadership vision” at Disney Institute, class participants would comment how sad it was that Walt never got to see Walt Disney World.
Early on, i created a simple response to illustrate the power of leadership vision:
Walt saw Walt Disney World clearer than anyone, that’s the only reason it’s here today.
He painted a picture of it that was too compelling to walk away from after his death.
We bought nearly 43 square miles (27,443 acres) for less than $200 an acre.
We bought it cheap, we could sell it cheap.
To transform 43 square miles of alligator, snake, and mosquito-infested swampland into the “Vacation Kingdom of the World” was borderline hallucinogenic.
At 73, Roy O. Disney (Walt’s older brother) came out of retirement and for five years, led the initial development – Magic Kingdom, two Resort Hotels, and a Campground.
Two months after dedicating Magic Kingdom to the World in 1971, Roy passed away.

Something i cannot explain because it was never a goal, never a desire, never even the smallest thought.
For the past 2,779 days, five daily, differently-themed blog posts (on 5 separate sites) have been written.
Not one day off.
Ever.
In 21 more days, this will equate to 14,000 blog posts.
Feeling incapable in describing it, and inadequate in explaining it.
Note: Since today’s post was written 90 days ago, 450 additional blog posts are added, pushing the total well past 14k.

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.
