Entrusted in midlife to spark the change we wish to see

Disney has taught me (for over 30 years) to over manage things that others either under manage or ignore.

This builds trust and trust is a differentiator anywhere there’s a crowd. We can see the same thing two days in a row and yet they appear different. But only if we are “present in the moment”.

Otherwise, we can go through our day and never notice the clouds.

Heading to the Nicholson Center in an hour. Have been entrusted to be a catalytic speaker for a long-time client.

What if there was less than a week left, then what?

Because there is a law such as love…

 

What if there was less than a week left (for something monumental), then what?

Dear Son, believe it or not, the past four days have been some of the most monumental days in our relationship.

How can so much happen in such a short time?

Why did it take so long or was it perfect timing?

Has this been the ultimate test of patience and payoff?

Our attitude toward relationships doesn’t have to wait to blossom

Clock ticking
Time is the great equalizer – we all get 24 hours each day.

 

Do the other kids talk to their parents the way we talk?

No.

Do you think they wished they could?

No.

Huh?

They don’t care about this sort of stuff.

Years later when they get closer with their parents, they’ll wonder why they waited so long for it to be this good.

Seriously. Why wait?

Oh yeah, because we’re busy.

When was the last time our attitude changed this much?

When was the last time our attitude changed so dramatically because we made a scary, expensive decision that cost us more money than we were comfortable with?

But saved us precious time and worry –  something we had only dreamed of?

When? Maybe too long ago?

We create a certain magic when we are decisive, creative, and daring.

We’ve all been there a few times in our life. Maybe it’s been awhile.

Man, feels great, right!

I often wonder what would happen if we did it more often?

This afternoon when the Housekeepers arrive and become a regular fabric of home life… maybe it will be a game changer.

Similar in a different sort of way

George Washington

Similar in a different sort of way, a thought from George Washington that is part of the hope at Mid Life Celebration. That you would come to trust this place for reassurance that the long way is the short cut:

“Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence.” – George Washington
