There are moments in time that change everything

Mid Life Celebration keynote speaker — The upper right quadrant represents our body. – our physical health.

There are moments in time that change everything. And if we are intentional, we’ll control when many of these moments happen.

And the reason we want to control when they happen is so it will be easier to remember them.

The easier it is to remember them, the more likely they are to perpetually influence how we live moment to moment – most of us dream of being in the moment more often.

April 15, 1999 (income tax deadline – a day every working American is familiar with) i began running one mailbox a day for a week. Less than a month ago, on Halloween, my wife and son began doing the same thing.

Never have any more unremarkable days?

(photo: Yesterday morning’s run… tried to capture the Church sign’s address… Flint, MI… for posterity… camera didn’t cooperate)

Can we get to a point where our days are no longer unremarkable?

Driving to Detroit in 90 minutes to fly home from what is now officially the last business trip as a Walt Disney World Cast Member.

Yesterday’s run was the next to last road trip run and in a few minutes, this morning’s run will be the last as a Cast Member.

Our lives click by one unremarkable day at a time.

The opportunity is to work hard to get to a place where we never have any more unremarkable days.

Lane 8 Business Cards

Lane 8 business cards have a unique beginning.

Do you have interesting stories about important moments in your life?

If so, then you realize that if we don’t find a way to capture that moment, it will disappear and be forever lost.

Great companies do this. Great Countries do this. Great religions do this. Holidays, milestones, traditions.

Three days before flying to Helsinki, Finland, it dawned on me that there were going to be 5,300 athletes from 80 countries and untold spectators. I needed business cards. Lots of business cards.

“Okay, you don’t have much time”, I said in a panic. “But you do have an enormous opportunity.”

I cut out a handful of business card size pieces of card stock (my wife always has stuff like this on hand).

In only three tries, I had what I wanted.

My wife commented that even the edges I had drawn weren’t straight. “Perfect“, I said.

Two days before the leaving the United States, I asked Kinkos/FedEx how much for 1,000 or 3,000 cards. And then I said, “How much for 5,000?”

The rest, as they say, is history.
