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?

Just a photo, work

mountaintop fire watch tower
Swiftcurrent Firetower. Best view of Glacier and the easiest to access. And when i say easiest, the easiest from waking up at Granite Park Chalet. Otherwise, it’s hard.

Beware of doubt

Beware of doubt.

Why?

Doubt has robbed me (and most) of pursuing alternatives to social norms.

Norms like closed-mindset.

Norms like a sedentary lifestyle, fueled with mostly processed foods.

Norms like being a Christian with our smile, but not with our heart.

Norms like sacrificing health and family for career ladder climbing.

Norms like living a life that’s architected by default, not by design.

Norms like thinking someone else is in charge of your life.

When was the last time you convinced yourself, “I’m the CEO of Me, Inc?”

Had a nice ring to it when i thought it up, and convinced myself, “Jeff, you are The CEO of You, Inc.”

Make success easy, home

Make success at home easy.

Spend as many years as it takes to identify your life’s priorities.

Once you have a compelling list, prioritize it.

Create auto-pilot habits to ensure all your decisions use your prioritized-priorities filter.

Eliminate all habits founded on unprioritized priorities.

Why do this?

To live with personal vibrancy.

Note: Personal vibrancy does not meaning the absence of pain, suffering, regret, disease, etc. Personal vibrancy means in spite of never-ending challenges, you’ve built a house of stone, not sticks or straw.

October 1, 2025, home

This was fun to play a bit with photo galleries again.

And exciting too, to scan ‘big-picture’ style at all the different hikes, days, locations.
