Apple fascinates people like few other businesses can

 

Spent yesterday in class with 30 extraordinarily bright business people learning why being insanely intentional about the operational details of a business is key to outperforming the competition.

And then during a break, in the midst of a casual hallway conversation, “But you don’t need to worry about your weight”.

Knowing full well it would fall on deaf ears, said it anyway, “I worry about my weight every single day, and am insanely intentional about the details, that’s why it looks like there’s no need to worry”.

Sigh.

And then smile.

Forget everything you’ve been told about getting healthy and start with a blank page in 2014.

Then start ridiculously slow with one caveat – you will never (ever) stop being active.

How is it possible to go another year not exercising he said to himself?

Staring into your mirror, what do we see?

In a conversation yesterday someone adamantly and negatively critiqued a leadership group as not practicing what they preached.

And without trying, an immediate question, “Has this accuser ever looked in the mirror? They are the antithesis of health and wellness. And yet they claim health is critical”.

So bloody obvious it almost chokes me.

Since then, been staring into that mirror, scouring for my blind spots.

The devil wants us to believe aging is a downhill process.

And yes, aging is what it says it is – aging.

Once we accept that, we can learn to be experts at it.

Instead of victims.

Everyone good with that?
