Foundational rule number 2 – never take yourself too seriously. Yes, and…always be the deepest thinker in the room.

Being in the speaking industry, foundational rule number one is become an author – your book is your business card.

Was not in shape

Shirtless, and soaked man sitting on rock
College reunion, probably 2008.

Christmas 2008 with our second Lab, Carter.

Wanted to write a book but wasn’t in shape to be a writer. A writer has to write, the same way a runner has to run.

Outdoor seating area at Disney University
Completed three sets of a personal workout from here. Did a business call too. And a 6-mile roundtrip walk from home.

Let’s assume at 18 (or 21), we are in a natural state of youthful vibrancy. As the decades pass by, can we maintain our high school weight?
