You can tell what someone is by the crowd they keep.

Do you remember what an outlier looks like…

You can tell what someone is by the crowd they do not keep.

Outlier.

The only difference?

The way they stand out in a sea of same.

It’s an obvious lack of conformity.

Rubs many the wrong way.

Generally the only way to leap from dogma and or tradition is to listen to an outlier.

Carry the lightest tools

Two work computers. One is a backup. Two tiny audio speakers.

Carry the lightest tools.

Every day.

At home.

While traveling for work.

And while hiking in Grizzly Bear Country.

Today’s simplest headline, March 16, 2022.

Jesus-level leading?

Yes.

When was the last time you were willing to die for who and what you love?

May God have Mercy on Ukraine, the Ukrainian people, and their brave leader.

(John 3:16 is the closest thing to what President Zelenskyy has inspired his Country to to)

Pretend you’re new – reprise

Ukraine is not new. War is not new. Where do we go from here?

Pretend you’re new – reprise:

Your 40-year old neighborhood is moving into it’s next phase.

This phase represents what happens when you (meaning your town, city, State) become famous. Everyone wants a piece of the special goodness you discovered decades before the masses.

Our Publix grocery store is reputed to be the busiest in Florida.

Every cashier i ask estimates no less than half the grocery shoppers are tourists.

There are thousands of homes in every style and category within a five-mile radius.

It’s like living across the street from Disneyland’s property. If you’ve ever stayed in the Disneyland Hotel with a high room and a balcony facing West, you see the adjacent residential neighborhoods. Can you imagine?

Yes.

Why?

Because we live less than one mile from Walt Disney World.
