All my personal posts 2008-2016.

Zero expectations, home

Examining and reflecting on myself, i ask…

What expectations are needed at home (HQ)?

What HQ expectations are nice to have?

What HQ expectations are unnecessary?

What HQ expectations are harmful?

Thoughts control habits.

Habits control results.

Therefore thoughts control my results at home (HQ).

And what happens to my habits and results if i reduce or eliminate unnecessary and harmful HQ expectations?

Glacier’s greatest hits

Mountains from a distance
Where the Great Plains meet the Continental Divide. Along the highway from Browning to Babb. Left horizon is Reynolds Mountain. Center is Going-to-the-Sun Mountain.

Glacier’s greatest hits.

Of course, trails, hikes, overlooks, etc.

Also, certain regions: Swiftcurrent, Many Glacier, St Mary, Two Med, Rising Sun, Logan Pass.

Keep on keepin’ on

CNN Tweet about Bangladesh's ousted Prime Minister
Shocking. Had to read this Nov 17, 2025 CNN Tweet three times to understand it. Have never heard of this. Death penalty for a country leader. Stunned.

Keep on keepin’ on.

That’s it.

Plain and simple.

My simple, key, repeatable yearly plan, year after year…

Have fun.

.think .differently

Lean into discomfort.

Prioritize fearlessly

Prioritize.

Fearlessly.

Win.

Enjoy.

Note: Everyone is going through a hell no one knows about. Even winners.

What time are the fireworks?

two men at small cafe
Dinner. Across the street from Disney’s Magic Kingdom Cast Member parking lot. Disney University is in view too.

What time are the fireworks?

It was dark, but it wasn’t even 7:00 PM yet.

We confirmed what we thought, fireworks at 9:00 PM.

Sometimes Magic Kingdom fireworks are at 6:00 PM or 7:00 PM.

Different timing will make viewing the fireworks effortless. Closeup. Free. Stunning.

All part of our “palm trees and sunshine” community perks.

Never gets old.
