Priorities and Calendar gymnastics

Facebook post screenshot
Wow, roughly nine years ago in 2016.
empty Facebook friends list
Creative decision to not yet delete my Facebook account. Instead, i deleted (unfriended, but i like deleted better) all 27 Friends, all linked posts, and all comments on the posts remaining. These 27 people…we can text and call each other anytime. We’re family and a few lifetime friends from hometown and college. No Disney colleagues in this account, btw.

Calendar gymnastics is the phrase that inspired today’s posts.

i prefer prioritization gymnastics.

Since our priorities drive what’s on our calendar, it feels synonymous.

Perhaps calendar gymnastics’ original definition is “balancing and flexing all the stuff we want to do with all the stuff other’s want us to do”.

To me, the best way to do that is to be crystal clear on your prioritized priorities.

Goals are everything

What do you know about goals, goal setting, and goal achieving? Can you teach it?

Without goals, you cannot prioritize your activities nor can you manage your time effectively.

The end of a decade means…

We avoid stairs in our early decades in favor of the escalator. If we ever make it to 100, we’d love to be able to take the stairs. Photo: yesterday at Lehigh Valley airport in Pennsylvania.

The end of a decade means…

The beginning of a new decade, which means…

What will you do with this special moment that happens only 10 times for someone who lives to be 100?
