Lane 8 Vision

Lane 8 Vision. What’s the vision for Lane 8? I’ve shared it over and over with people, one at a time.

It hit me. Record a Lane 8 You Tube video and post it as a PAGE for first time visitors to Lane 8.

This is the first of several jeff noel midlife You Tube videos, sharing the vision for Lane 8.

Now, hopefully, you have a clearer picture. But this is only the beginning. Stay tuned.

As soon as I can, I’ll post the followup to this one.

Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂

Who’s more passionate?

Who’s more passionate about your health than you?

In case you haven’t noticed, the answer is no one is more passionate about your health than you are.

If this comes as a surprise to you, please hang up and dial 911.

Hey, I’m joking. Sort of.

The emergency you may have, like I did, was a wake-up call from a routine blood test from my 1999 annual physical.

My “good” cholesterol was dangerously low. It was lower than the lowest acceptable level. This got my attention. It got my mid-life attention because it was something I never, ever thought would be an issue.

Guess again.

So I decided to be the most passionate person I know about my own health. This had made an enormous difference. Like night and day. My HDL is now consistently 56 – 60.

I’m still struggling with my overall cholesterol, but am currently maintaining 190 – 210.

I ran a nice and easy five miles this morning. Worked out at the gym yesterday – to strengthen my core, and then parked at my Church and ran four miles on Apopka-Vineland Road, near Conroy-Windermere Road. It’s decently hilly.

As the Mastercard commercial saying goes, “What’s in your wallet?”

Translated, it means, what did you do today or yesterday to prove you are the most passionate person about your health, on this planet?

Make it a GREAT day, because if you don’t, who will?

Carpe diem, jeff

What is the vision at lane 8?

humble servant

Humble servant? Yes. humble servant

To help others do the right things, and in doing so, help make the world a better place, before my time is up.

Throughout my 25 years as a Disney leader, I’ve been taught to understand that the purpose of vision is to set the course for what you want yourself, or your organization, To Be.

A vision is lofty, hard to articulate, and you may never explain it the same way twice. It may even be, unachievable.

At www.lane8.org , the challenge is: Dream Big. Get There. Stay There.

May I please challenge you to do something GREAT?

Make your vision something impossible.

I worry about setting the bar too low, achieving it, and then wondering what I could have, should have, or would have done. If only I had dreamt a bigger dream.

Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
