Our similarities are different.

Yogi Berra

Zero workouts ain’t the same as zero inbox.

Well, technically it is. However, zero workouts stinks. Zero in box is bliss.

Trust the process.

Leadership jargon

It’s been over four months since the first surgery. Over three months since the second.

In three days, i see Dr Kumar for another in a long list of follow-up exams.

Three days.

That’s 72 hours.

i end every Disney Keynote speech with a 72-hour challenge.

Most audience members (business leaders) are too busy and too overwhelmed to commit to a 72-hour challenge.

Why?

Unfocused.

i am directly focused on patiently, optimistically, humbly waiting for another encouraging update from Dr Kumar.

Hold ‘em

Traveling in a car, looking out the windshield from the backseat
Two hours of darkness.
Traveling in a car, looking out the windshield from the backseat
Sunrise at 7:20 AM. Grateful for daylight.

Hold yourself accountable first (and forever) before you start projecting judgement on others.

dad

Have worked hard over the decades to stop judging other drivers’ behavior. It’s paid off. Now, i pray a lot. Figuring every driver is going through a hell no one knows about.

Extend Grace, not the middle finger.

Reps are not original

Google map
Travel time is a vision of the path in the moment you ask. The moment you ask has no knowledge of what’s gonna unfold as our big rock spins.

Reps are not original, they are hard. Reps are hard until they aren’t.

dad

Reps, in whatever domain, form habits.

New habits require serious adjustment.

But once you succeed, through repetition, the adjustment becomes the new normal. No extra effort is required once the new habit is normalized.

i cannot recall a time in my life where this wasn’t true. It’s always true. Bank on it.

Ps. And to hell with your excuses.

Pss. Remember, this is me talking to me.

To Santee, SC. Our overnight stop. We are not driving straight through. We will be driving roughly 10 hours due to breaks, traffic, etc.

i love traveling. i hate being gone.

dad

Teaching at Disney Institute was always a “get to do”.

Traveling was always a “have to do”.

Traveling meant i was gone from my Family.

Today we hit the road as a Family.

Yee-haw!!
