It pays to be sneaky sometimes

Was impressed with the technology that provided a list of all alternative flight choices.

It pays to be sneaky sometimes.

Context: Our Delta flights to Glacier National Park got canceled 20 minutes before i ordered an Uber, delaying our departure by one day and providing an unexpected opportunity for me to squeeze in a gym workout.

Snuck in a normal two-hour workout yesterday (a Saturday) because i had been in Spain for five days, and, immediately did a “turnaround” to head to Montana.

Weather made an unchangeable change – we need to fly today, a day later than scheduled.

Awoke at 4am today, with no time to write before scheduling a Lyft. So i write this from 37k’ on the way to Minneapolis.

Son, life is as we make it. It will always be challenging. Learn to control the controllables (like our attitude and our personal processes) and surrender to what we can’t control (like the weather and a cancelled flight).

What changes when something is worth protecting?

Of course, i am Disney. Of course, i am healthy.

What changes when something is worth protecting?

Everything.

Son, when you reach the healthiest state in your life, you’ll start to understand what i’ve been talking about all these years.

You’ve never known me to be woefully unhealthy.

That doesn’t mean it wasn’t so.

Was 40 before i decided to never again get out of a state of thriving wellness.

Protect your health like it’s a job you love

Disney Leadership authors
Grammarly, a writing app, provides users with three key weekly metrics. Imagine a health app doing something similar. Would we install it?

 

Protect your health like it’s a job you love.

PS. Even in jobs we love, there are parts that can be boring, painful, unmotivating, repetitious, and tempting to abandon.

Which makes the first sentence worth rereading.

After writing two hours, exercise for three more

After writing two hours, exercise for three more.

How hard are you prepared to work to live like you mean it?

Overwhelmingly grateful (positive attitude), vibrantly healthy (for someone your age), blessed beyond measure, doing work you love, and living with only what you need.

Ask yourself, “Is it worth defending?”

filet mignon
Dinner the night before the flight…coffee infused filet mignon and baked potato with butter. i forgot to order broccoli.

 

Stopped at the gym on the drive home from the airport yesterday.

Why?

Because it’s worth defending.

What?

My health.
