How are your daily habits and rituals?

hand held phone
Can’t remember the last time i held a phone to talk.

How are your daily habits and rituals?

On a call yesterday with a 40-something client.

He still holds his phone to his ear.

This fact surfaced when we had to stop talking for a few seconds while i switched to a backup pair of Air Pods.

Really, you haven’t switched to a better way?

And we wonder why young people don’t embrace our “wisdom”.

It’s because from where they stand, they don’t see too much wisdom.

Don’t believe me? When was the last time you exercised regularly and for at least 10 consecutive years?

This photo added today Feb. 17: 15 days ago, i tallied this “official” blog post total. Some days i wrote more than five posts. There are also 682 posts written on my second tier blogs.

Being organized has a dirty little secret.

You can never coast.

PS. Since this post was written on December 17, 2018, the numbers have grown by 60 and 300 respectively to 3,606 and 18,030. And astonishingly (to me), the actual total as of today is 19,102.

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.

Where you set the bar is always an obligation

Best Disney Keynote Speakers
Daylight when i arrived yesterday and dark when i left.

 

Most people don’t aim for a great life because they settle for a very good life or even an ok (average?) life.

Remember, there is no harm and no foul with where you set your life’s bar.

What is critical for happiness – and most people ignore this – is that you can’t wish for more or better and leave the bar set where you set it.

Also, a high bar doesn’t automatically equate to happiness either.

If the habits and rituals you carry aren’t serving you – no matter where your bar is set – how will you respond long-term?

The “bad” ones keep deserving people away from having any idea

delta airlines service failures
Notes summary from recent Delta One experience. One more thing i need to take care of that i wish i didn’t have to.

 

i love being organized to go to bed early enough (most nights) so that by 5am, i can wake up with eight hours of sleep.

With a consistent (but not perfect) regiment, i’m positioned to enjoy the morning because i’m not in a fog.

i already knew last night how the first two hours of this morning (Nov 21, 2018) would go.

Habits and rituals.

Bank on the great ones.

The “bad” ones keep deserving people away from having any idea what i’m talking about.
