Making your bed every morning speaks volumes

Buddha
Walking from College to Apartment we stopped to enjoy this art.

Context. We are standing on the side of the road where we walked. There was no sidewalk and the houses are literally 10 feet from the road.

 

Making your bed every morning speaks volumes.

If you don’t have the motivation and discipline, and satisfaction to make your bed, what are the odds the rest of your day will be filled with motivation, discipline, and joy?

i am not judging you, i’m simply comparing where i was and where i am now.

i like now better than the old me.

It starts with my choices first thing every morning.

Simplicity gets lost on us because of familiarity

Slow and steady wins the race.

 

If it’s to be, it’s up to me.

Not sure who said it, but it fits.

Bonus:

Slow and steady wins the race.

Simple.

Familiar.

Forgotten.

Your move.

The paradox of being inquisitive

Disney University
Yesterday at Disney University.

 

leadership quotes
While riding a bicycle to Disney, this thought came. At junglejeff.net today, you’ll see the polished version from more time to think about it.

Photo-bombing (Walt’s shoulder) myself at DU yesterday. Having fun at work is a personal responsibility.

 

Our questions proclaim (whether we want them to or not) what we value.

Shallow questions, for example, reveal a shallow mindset. Begging the question, “Why so shallow?”

Deep, thought-provoking (often painful) questions, for example, reveal our mindset too, and invite the question, “Why so much thought and focus?”

It doesn’t matter which we gravitate too, what’s undeniable is how our questions speak to our values, our hopes, and ultimately, to our intentionality in achieving peace and contentment

i wish there would have been a book like this when i was 21

Disney Institute Business facilitator jeff noel
Except from business workbook.

 

Mid Life Celebration: rethink • reprioritize • recommit is a short book that helped me make sense of my excuses and my regrets, and helped me prepare for the inevitable second chances that often arrive without warning.

i wish a book exactly like this would have been available when i was 21.

For most of us, where we are now is not who we are.

We have hopes and dreams on the back burner.

Can’t wait to read the book for the 31st time.

rethink • reprioritize • recommit

Irrefutable always lives up to it’s reputation

Flip flops on Sanibel Island beach
Three years ago this week, a good friend passed away unexpectedly. He was 47, a husband and a dad.

 

Irrefutable always lives up to it’s reputation.

We are all going to die.

Embracing this everyday, to me, makes living like you mean it a more tangible goal.

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.
