Running quotes
Today’s Sunshine State games is a special workout.

 

Today is Father’s Day 2015. Heading out the door before sunrise to drive to Punta Gorda for the 2015 Sunshine State Games.

Good health is the gift i give my Family.

Motivation is the gift i give myself.

Ever think of your life that way?

Three days ago in Ft Lauderdale, the USA Today caught my attention.

 

Donald Trump speaker fee
Who commands $1.5m per speech?

 

Disney Keynote Speakers Orlando Based
Three days ago from the Marriott Harbor Beach.

 

Hoping that Donald’s success in business rivals his success with his physical health.

Currently offering a world class keynote speech featuring the Disney Way in exchange for $1.5m $21k.

As business gets busier, the exchange rate will have to increase, simply because of demand and supply.

Disney Corporate Keynote Speaker
First thing i see on LinkedIn at 530am yesterday. My speech’s message is their new wheel.

 

Are mistakes really gifts in disguise?

Yes.

Success is built upon a foundation of failure.

Mid Life Celebration, and yesterday’s Leadership Keynote speech was fertilized with failure.

The long way is the short cut.

Simplicity is operational genius

Quote on truth
Yesterday, during High School campus tour…”Truth is ever to be found…”

 

Yesterday began with a third, and final, High School tour.

This was a moment many don’t experience because the default option is the closest public school your address says you’re zoned for.

That’s what we had planned for originally.

If you had a more compelling option, but it came with a price, would you take it?

Today and tomorrow are especially big days

Yesterday morning’s meeting at Panera Bread. Just because it’s front and center, doesn’t mean we should eat it.

 

Today and tomorrow are especially big days.

Do you ever categorize your days or rate them on a scale of importance?

Maybe on certain big days, right? But not everyday. No one does that. Do they?

Often, we are on auto-pilot. Going through the motions. It’s just easier to adopt the societal norms.

Here’s the paradox though, what should be normal rarely is.

Why?

Because its too much work. Too much focus. Too much discipline.

Really?

Yes.

A clear, concise, and compelling goal – with a deadline – is the key to being fully alive day in and day out.

That should be the norm.
