What Does It Take For These
Thursday, January 28th, 2010
Best of the Best = Gold Medal
What does it take for these accolades:
- Person of the Year – Ben Bernachi
- Athlete of the Decade – Tiger Woods
- Top You Tube views – Susan Boyle
The last one, top You Tube views is amazing because of the staggering odds against it ever happening.
- 120,000,000 views
- More than 2nd, 3rd, & 4th most viewed combined
- Before last year, who the heck is Susan Boyle?
For everyone who isn’t embracing the Internet, you still have time.
Yesterday’s announcement of the iPad is just another indication the world is changing.
Embrace it or ignore it?
Pick one.
Longfellow Quote

Is More Better?
“Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.” — Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
This Longfellow quote came to me in a most unusual way. A piece of mail from Senior’s First, a Central Florida charity to help seniors who can not help themselves.
But what is so powerful is recently, I was talking to someone about what happened on Christmas day, while we where doing our 11th annual Christmas day tradition – delivering Food for Families.
The month before doing the same thing on Thanksgiving day, we had a van full of food, and got lost, spending several hours making deliveries.
But on Christmas morning, as we pulled away from Ocoee High School, Cheryl said all the deliveries were on the same street. We found the street in about 15 minutes, delivered the food and were done.
Cheryl asked if we should go back and do more.
And I said, “No. We shouldn’t let the amount of time determine the value of our efforts. We should feel good about what we did to help.”
And so it goes, the constant battle to listen to society’s stereotypes and what’s in our hearts.

Strength Is Your Responsibility
Friday, January 22nd, 2010
100 Years Old
“Strength is something you forge from within.” — Eugenia ‘Jean’ Finnegan Biden
Watching (not really, more like listening) ABC Evening News a few weeks ago, Vice President Joe Biden spoke of fond memories and important lessons he learned from his mother.
She had died the day before.
Of all the things Vice President Joe Biden said, it’s his mother’s advice at the top here, that resonated the most.
Why?
Personal responsibility is really the key to success. I’ve known this all my life and you have too.
Having a ten year plan has really helped me see what’s still possible, but not guaranteed.
Not six months. Ten years.
PS. This is the first dupe post. By accident. Seems it posted January 9 at Lane 8, but for some reason it also sat in jeffnoel.com It is a major rule to not recycle content here. I’m gonna let this one ride though.
Why? Because one dupe post ain’t gonna end the world. Besides, the endings are different, unbeknownst to me.
Carrie Underwood Change

Just A Fool?
“To live without my music would be impossible to do, because in this world of troubles, my music pulls me through.”
The other day, I heard Carrie Underwood’s new song, “Change“.
There’s a line in the song that goes like this:
“Just a fool, just a fool to believe, you can change the world.”
Maybe. Maybe not.
