Praying for Earth, body

Artemis II is returning to Earth after sending humans farther from Earth than ever before in history.

Artemis II traveled around the Moon and lost contact (it was planned for) with NASA for a brief period.

Extraordinary accomplishment in human history.

And as i type this (4:15pm April 7, 2026) we are three hours and 45 minutes from our President’s Iranian-peace-deal deadline.

i will wake up tomorrow and go about my morning routine, including walking many miles, without fear of bombs nor destruction.

i wish this for everyone on Earth.

A good day for a Friday, body

sleep score from app

So common to rate our day on how much exercise we did or didn’t get.

Have always been challenged with sleep during a 15-year Hotel career, and a 25-year traveling keynote speaker career.

So seeing results like this on a Friday morning…

Today is def a good Friday.

Give me some good news, body

Was averaging 8 miles M-F. That’s 40 miles walking per week, excluding whatever happens on the weekend.

Give me some good news.

Ok.

Making consistent mental and emotional progress on adjusting my physical vibrancy expectations as i get closer to 70.

This is a big deal.

Why?

The mind still says go, go, go.

The body says become a master at avoiding injuries that create lasting pain or require you to stop doing something that you’ve done since you were in high school.

Shit you didn’t know, body

Dear Son,

Shit you didn’t know…

How could you?

You were just a kid.

What you didn’t know is…

How being your dad inspired and guided everything i did (and why i did it)…

Like getting and staying healthy even with a new career (speaker), frequent travel, and a history of health peaks and valleys. Because when i started at Disney Institute at 40, it was the same year i received a health ‘wake-up call’.

You’ll never recall me being unfit. Why? Because i began a physical vibrancy journey that’s now 26 years old and counting.

Now that you’ve officially retired, body

The AV check, March 8, 2026. A Sunday.

Now, i’m officially retired not only from Disney in 2014, but also from my own personal business for the past 12 years.

Cheryl and i spent today (a Sunday) finalizing travel plans.

A rest day from exercising today, we poured our creative mental, spiritual, and organizational energy into committing to Europe and the Northeast United States.

Ps. This Summer’s Glacier trip has been locked and loaded for a year. “Only” a month in 2026.
