Prioritized priorities are an incredibly vibrant way to run anything. A company. A personal life.

Doing this trip trumps any sort of financial efficiency.

Why?

Because time is sometimes more valuable than money.

The clock is always ticking.

Note to self…

Please be careful.

And intentional.

Happy present moment.

HE is Risen, home

Food for Families — Our 19th consecutive year delivering “Food For Families”. Yesterday morning at Ocoee High School.

A Publix Supermarket produce manager started “Food For Families” because he saw so much edible, but just-expired food get thrown away.

Don’t let what you can’t do stop you from what you can do.

‘Only’ three times each year for 19 years. Not a lot in the big picture.

But 57 events is better than zero, or five.

We did what we could do, without becoming clergy or full-time volunteers.

Noteworthy: Three giant American Holidays in Easter, Christmas and Thanksgiving. Historically, these days do not start out by serving others. Not only were we donating time, but also focus. It’s humbling to change a lifetime routine. For nearly two decades, we received more than we gave on those mornings where others came first.

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.

Be the person, home

The greatest reward in life is teaching yourself how to live vibrantly.

And in doing that, you teach your family.

A parent’s two jobs are to protect and to teach.

To teach is to learn twice.

Be the person that encourages others to .think .differently about personal vibrancy.

These rare people are important.

Hope you enjoy unwrapping this glorious gift.

Exiting should be art

Exiting should be art.

Why?

Because if you truly knew how much time you had left and it wasn’t as much as you thought it would be, you’d probably rally like Tom Brady with two minutes to go in the Super Bowl.

Note: Not a football fan anymore, but definitely a fan of excellence. And Tom Brady won seven Super Bowls. Some of them were come from behind with only two minutes to go.
