Showtime, home

Showtime.

Huh?

Showtime. It’s showtime.

Began saying it in my 40’s, shortly after starting a 25-year keynote speaking career at Disney Institute.

Now, 27 years later, still saying it.

The context now…

It’s time for the retirement show. The final season of life.

Prioritized priorities just reshuffled.

Exciting times.

Uncharted territory.

Adventure is out there.

Get moving.

This website is about our HOME. This is the fifth of five daily, differently-themed blog posts about: (1) mind, (2) body, (3) spirit, (4) work, (5) home. To return to Mid Life Celebration, the site about MIND, click here.

Still cleaning up and hoping, home

Still cleaning up and hoping.

Work falls to the fifth of five priorities.

Why?

Because we work for two reasons:

Sustenance
Contribution (if we’re lucky, and present)

So…

Sustenance has been baked in, by design, for the past four decades.

Contribution, never ends.

Adventure awaits.

Now that you’ve officially retired, home

breakfast plate at outdoor cafe — Creativity: How can i (we) pause while walking 8-ish miles per day and enjoy an affordable power breakfast, and then finish the daily walk. Note: There are two breakfast places near us. This is one of them, this past Friday (48 hours ago).

Now that you’ve officially retired, will your priorities change?

Of course.

Why?

No more working in exchange for financial gain.

What do i think will be the biggest change or adjustment?

Candidly, and literally immediately, the thought of rarely (perhaps never) using LinkedIn is the first thing that comes to mind.

All the posturing, FOMO, selling, bragging, “hey look what I’m doing”…

Mental, spiritual, career freedom.

After that, creative brainstorming on how to capture my life’s professional wisdom in forms that benefit our Son.

And after that (most likely simultaneously), figuring out how to scale and sustain an adventurous, and grateful, way to enjoy life’s sunset phase.

Final Keynote, home

Final Disney Customer Service keynote speech.

Life changing?

Of course.

And as Walt says, “Keep moving forward.”

Looking forward to the next (life) stage.

My priorities are prioritized.

Adventure is out there.

A new day is dawning, home

A new day dawns, everyday.

Without fail.

We’ll spend the day organizing.

What a gift.

Everyday.

Organize like you mean it.
