Every time you make an exception and lower your standard

Ben Towers
i sat in Ben’s seat while he spoke. As a professional speaker, he nailed it. As a 20-year old, he’s definitely in the prodigy realm.

 

What we accept by default becomes the standard.

Every time you make an exception and lower your standard you are chipping away at your new, lower standard.

Taking a stand is what sets a standard.

Not taking a stand also sets a standard.

One standard builds strength.

The other standard doesn’t.

PS. The good news is the same thing happens in reverse too.

There are multiple hells in our lifetime

Loaded up the MiFi since the logic says, the East side will be your best bet with the Howe Ridge fire. Glacier National Park. Verizon is accessible several miles into the Park.

 

The things each of us has to deal with would make the next person weak.

And so it goes.

We think others are luckier, more privileged, smarter, less prone to bad things, and so on.

Everyone is going through a hell no one knows about.

There are multiple hells over our lifetime we must deal with.

Same for everyone.

This is not a valid reason to neglect the things we have control over – our choices.

Life has five big choices

Disney Culture Speaker
The ripple effect helps or hurts – be constantly aware and be intentional.

 

Life has five big choices.

Balance isn’t about time, it’s about energy.

There are two non-negotiables called work and sleep…

  1. You’ll work 50 hours a week.
  2. You’ll sleep, ideally, 56 hours a week.

So the 168 hours you start with has 62 hours remaining.

Mind, body, spirit, work, home.

None of these will get anywhere near 50 hours each (work is the exception).

You must decide how to spend your time and energy.

Be strategic, be intentional, be focused, be disciplined.

For example, can you volunteer as a Family so that you feed your spirit, relationships, attitude, and personal organization?

Years ago i decided to never leave my Family in order to volunteer.

Work already kept us apart enough – hence, we only volunteer together.

Ten years ago i began a small business so i wouldn’t have to travel (be away) so much. Now i work from home.

Five things everyone does

Disney Culture Speaker
Listen to people who dedicate their lives to something important.

 

Five things everyone does:

  1. We think
  2. We move
  3. We feel
  4. We work
  5. We dwell

Understand the big picture and then fill in the details that allow you to thrive in all five.

Get better at one, the other four benefit.

Neglect one, the other four suffer.

It’s that simple.

You can pretend

caring
Note from an interaction i had earlier this week. The source escapes me.

 

You can pretend to care, but you can not pretend to show up.

 

Go.
