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.

Balance regrets and accomplishments

hand held phone
Can’t remember the last time i held a phone to talk. Last night it happened because my Air Pods died and the backup pair (yes, i have two pairs) took too long to synch.

 

When it comes time to die…

Balance your regrets and your accomplishments.

Got this nugget from a new parent at Windermere Prep.

His and his wife’s grandparents are in their 90’s, and one is a centenarian.

Would it be weird to start a conversation on Facebook exchanging tips on preparing to die?

Honestly, it seems like a brilliant idea.

Will Summer 2018 be my last?

Disney Executive Coach
i remember taking this photo at an airport sundries shop. Small stones with inspiring words in a little box by the cash register – impulse buy. Didn’t buy any.

 

Will Summer 2018 be my last?

i’m planning on it.

Also hoping i’m wrong.

Regardless, i know i absolutely don’t want to live the mainstream life where people think they have many years ahead and put off the important things now for when they’ll have more time “later”.

Following the well-worn path leads to predictable outcomes – look at the people in your Family.

Doing something that’s never been done by anyone i know is exciting.

Embracing death makes me come alive.

No joke.

The odds of me following through were close to zero

Couple weeks ago.

 

The odds of me following through on that crazy 2008 post and starting a business and leaving Disney…

In reality, close to zero.

But here we are.

  • Nearly a decade into it.
  • 3,201 consecutive blogging days.
  • 16,005 posts
  • 3 years post-Disney – thriving personal business
  • Living with peace and contentment

i like it.

This claim is not socially acceptable

Not gonna lie.

Feeling tinges of guilt for wanting to spend as much of Summer 2018 in Glacier as i can.

Feeling anxiety for the audacious goal of living my life as if i had only ten years left.

Why?

Because there are less than 18 months for the “deadline”.

(Remember, i made this visionary statement six months before my 50th birthday, when i officially incorporated my business on January 1, 2009)

To arbitrarily call Summer 2018 my last is socially not acceptable.

No one is running up to me reassuring me i’m on to something extraordinary, brave, and inspiring.

No.

One.

PS. My “deadline” is June 8, 2019 – my 60th birthday – and therefore Summer 2019 is not an option.

PSS. Obviously, life may grant many more years and Summers. And yet there’s the remote possibility – for any of us – we won’t see this Summer.
