wake – Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker

If there were only six months left to live

Yesterday, experimenting with a potential improvement for Glacier National Park. This solar charger would fill the void for the lack of electricity at Granite Park Chalet.

If there were only six months left to live would you continue to make small daily improvements?

Asking you this under the assumption you already have the daily habit of small, daily improvement deeply ingrained. Safe to assume?

It’s so easy to dismiss the daily value of making slightly better choices.

Sticking with the basics is not impressive.
Being in love with boredom is not compelling.
Getting a fraction better isn’t going to be newsworthy.

So let’s say you have decades to live, would you focus on daily incremental improvement? Remember items 1-3?

Show me the money first

Walt Disney quote — Last night leaving Epcot after dinner.

Adults are worried about their future and their children’s (if they have them) future right?

Not really.

If people put their money where their mouth is, for starters, they’d be exercising regularly, eating a balanced diet, and getting adequate rest.

It seems, with few exceptions, everyone is concerned with what someone else will do while forfeiting their personal right to be a healthy, well-balanced human being.

Take control of your health first, get yourself in order before asking someone else to change.

Unreasonable?

How to know for sure

When we stop trying we stop caring.

Or is it, when we stop caring we stop trying?

Does it matter?

It doesn’t matter which we believe comes first. Either way it’s the same bottom line – we no longer care nor try.

No words after yesterday’s Orlando Pulse tragedy

Twenty-four hours ago, i woke up, just like i did a few minutes ago at 5am.

Like everyday.

And like every morning, i checked in on Twitter and this Tweet was the first one i saw…i only read the top part that says, “multiple injuries”…didn’t catch that the shooter was dead…

Then before leaving for Church this one…not sure what mass casualty means…

After Mass, this one…

Then we turned on the tv at home and learn 20 people died…OMG…

And then, to make this all worse than our worst nightmare ever…

Then, at the YuGiOh tournament in Kissimmee, this one…

May we all pause, think, cry, mourn, think some more, pray…and hope for some Heavenly miracle to reign down on humanity.

August 3, 2015

Podiatrist office patient chair — Yesterday morning, discussing someone else’s options.

August 3, 2015 (yesterday).

This is the day a Baby Boomer did three things on the journey to authenticity:

rethink • reprioritize • recommit

i witnessed the first day which was yesterday.

It will change this person from surviving (like the Herd) to thriving (like the Movement).

Being authentic begins and ends with the person in our mirror.

Authenticity has nothing to do with what others think.

Only a wake up call is powerful enough to get our serious attention.

But it may not be enough. Time will tell.
