What do i see in the mirror of my lifetime at home?
Casual.
Curious.
Shy.
Active.
Sports.
Cross-country, solo bicycle ride with only $75 cash and no tent.
Married.
Poor. But won a low-interest mortgage lottery for low income, first-time homebuyers (1985).
Health was almost always top priority – it’s the only thing i was really good at.
Then work at Walt Disney World became top priority.
Parenting looked hopeless.
Then a priority realignment.
Then teaching at Disney Institute, 1999 start (1999-2014).
Then parenthood, 2000.
Converted from (inactive) Lutheran to active Catholic, also 2000.
Then daily writing in 2009.
Then early retirement (2014) from Disney to start my own (risky, never-guaranteed) keynote speaking business (2014-2026) to have more control of my global travel schedule.
Empty-nester.
Personal vibrancy.
Sunset of life.
