Give them roots and give them wings.

Organized for the last 9 hugs

LinkedIn direct message — Because of my Disney association, i cross paths with many people and speak with many of them. Here’s a screen shot to capture a small moment in time last night. My message to Rafik is un-noteworthy. Rafik’s, on the other hand, is enlightening – he still remarks about “going the extra inch”.

Organized for the last 9 hugs.

We have five days next week, and four days your final High School week – the fifth day that second week there’s no school because of the evening graduation ceremony. So, nine hugs remaining.

Son, the few seconds it takes us to engage in an after school hug is perhaps the greatest of all the extra inches we could do.

Remember, we never let what we couldn’t do (something that required much more time and much greater effort to be memorable) stop us from what we can do.

Wisdom Day 2017

Halos — Lunch appetizer after returning home from biking and gym.

All Fruit spread — All Fruit is made without added sugar and no high fructose corn syrup.

milk and water — All i drink is water and milk.

Wisdom Day began March 6, 2017.

That was yesterday. Last night to be exact.

Made sure to create a calendar event entitled “Wisdom Day for Chapin”.

Last night’s conversation was significant. Chapin was on point, articulate, and grounded.

He also surprised me by saying, “The photos and written descriptions don’t align with who you are.”

Everything he said made sense and was spot on.

i told him to remember this day.

This is the day your wisdom begins for you.

PS. i posted all those photos (above) on facebook yesterday. That alone was not bad, what was misaligned was my motivation for posting them. It leaned to the side of sarcastic humor.

i removed all the photos and updates.

It was the right thing to do, even if Chapin was the only one who probably noticed.

How organized do we have to be in order to be this?

(photo: Life is tough and then you die… figure it out. You’re in charge of this. And life is unfair to all of us. Period.)

How organized do we have to be in order to be a very effective parent or leader?

When was the last time you gave (or received) meaningful, heartfelt feedback to a co-worker?

Yesterday?

Eighteen months ago?

Never?
