Get busy living, mind

Mid Life Celebration the book
The book that almost didn’t happen and didn’t have to happen.
the last lecture
Wanted to leave a trail for our young son in case something bad ever happened to me.

Dylan (Bob) said, “He who is not busy being born, is busy dying.”

Spring Break is a time for celebration and relaxation.

i think it’s also a time for bathing suits.

And if that’s too constricting, skinning dipping.

.think .differently

Have fun.

Lean into discomfort.

Memory a day, mind

Glacier National Park (GNP).

There’s a scene in The Madison when a character says, “My goal is to make a memory per day.”

Call me a dreamer, but…

Why settle for single digits?

Spring break, mind

Six years ago at Cheryl’s Disney retirement party at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort and Spa.

Spring Break. From Wikipedia…

“The tradition offers a break from studies and a chance to relax or celebrate.”

Spring Break. From jeff…

“A growth-mindset focused on slowing down to speed up. Moreover, an opportunity to break from six-plus decades of following American-life’s traditional path. Now it’s time to relax and celebrate for making it this far. While still possessing mental, physical, and emotional coherence, make the next however-long phase of your life a vibrant, celebratory party.”

Be prepared, mind

Being prepared is challenging.

Why?

Life.

Today’s posts are themed, as typical: mind, body, spirit, work, and home.

Be prepared to harvest, daily, and for a lifetime, the thoughts you sow.

The closer to death, mind

A critical slide in my signature Disney Customer Service Keynote. The slide summarizes the content below.

The closer to you get to death, the less you give a hoot what others think about the way you think and what you think about.

Why?

You finally realize you cannot control others’ thinking. Plus, most of us don’t know what others truly think — another late in life revelation.

Review: We live our life the way we want. None of us is gonna change who we are. (yes, exceptions exist)

To be clear, we probably have a few exceptional people we would actually change for.

So why stop caring what others think?

Because you’ll be dead soon and none of it will matter.
