Do it will before you need to

vitamins
Got these yesterday at grocery store. It will be a few weeks before the current bottles empty. Plan ahead.

 

 

The time to “worry” about things is before you have to.

Your health.

Doing things now that won’t pay off for 10, 20, 30, 40, or even 50 years from now is not at the top of anyone’s to-do list today.

What if it was?

It will take weeks for the current vitamin bottles to empty.

Got the replacement bottles yesterday.

Didn’t need to.

And therein lies a great habit.

Never get bored with the basics. Scout ahead and plan accordingly.

Only an hour away, Two Medicine and East Glacier were firsts for all three of us.

Comparing the real thing to the photos is a great way to judge for yourself instead of taking the photographer’s word (lens angle).

Making future reservations sight unseen could lead to disappointment when photos are misleading.

Adult learners are easily bored and distracted

Audience with hands raised
Having fun. Adult learners are easily bored and distracted. i have a millions ways to ensure it never happens.

 

i always tried to run before heading to the venue. Often, it was freezing outside. Over the years, i learned to plan my rest days for that week to coincide with the teaching days at University of Iowa.

i also plan my speeches to be full of interaction and state changes.

Had the guts but didn’t have the time

Top Disney Leadership Speaker
Yesterday’s date is in the upper right. i love when there is tangible proof of the facts.

 

Calling an audible. This blog is about our physical health, but i’m using this space today to continue a business story from yesterday.

Will i have the guts to use this example?

That’s what i asked yesterday. Yes, i was prepared to use it. But no, i didn’t.

Here’s why.

Time.

There wasn’t enough time.

Why?

Because something unpredictable happened, and since the client and i were clear on the vision (end goal), i flexed to take maximum advantage of the unplanned opportunity.

We stumbled upon something that really resonated with the client and it happened 75% of the way through our agenda. It was glorious. Not only because we discovered it, but because we agreed to sacrifice the remaining planned agenda to take advantage of the amazing, unplanned opportunity.

Note: i did not intentionally take the Apple Watch photo above. Somehow, it happened though, right as we had solidified unity on a tangible group goal – a clear, concise, and compelling roadmap for leadership alignment.

Gaining Weight

Gaining weight is easy for me.  Almost as easy as breathing.  This is a scary proposition.

Why?

Because of the ease of putting on pounds, I have to work extra hard to counteract this natural tendency.  Most humans do.

Once, two friends who were talking about their current diets, looked at me and said, “You’re lucky, you don’t need to worry about your weight”.

In reply, “I worry about my weight every single day, that’s why I don’t have to worry about it”.  Ya with me?  Stay focused.  Fight a good battle today.
