The days seem too short too often…

 

At the Happiest Place on Earth for eight days. So far it’s looking like there will be very little opportunity to see much of it.

Making eight hours sleep a priority cuts into available free time. Making time to exercise also cuts into it.

Note: Did have the coolest backstage tour yesterday which was unplanned and remarkably treasured.

Organize our leadership priorities or suffer the consequences

Organize our leadership priorities or suffer the consequences of not being crystal clear and consistent:

  1. Honesty
  2. Behave admirably
  3. Self control
  4. Personal responsibility

With the goals as follows:

  1. Peace and contentment
  2. Confidence

Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Knowing it and not doing it means we do not yet know.

Q. What are the things you would grab if your home caught on fire?

The Cloud has automatic backup of important things, but paper, not so much.

 

Q. What are the things you would grab if your home caught on fire and you could only save what you could carry in one quick exit?

A. The iPhone is probably already in a pocket, so yelling for Family and pet to exit would be first. If there was any chance after ensuring their safety, it would be two three-ring binders full of wisdom collected since the teenage years.

Insight: An exercise like this is fun and as a bonus, a vulnerability was exposed. There is no backup for those 40+ years of paper treasure.

Note: Back-up was kept at work up until 2.5 years ago when the opportunity to work from home was offered.

 

The one phrase that haunts us

Find a million ways to have simplicity inspire us

 

The one phrase that haunts us:

But we may need it sometime.

This is true.

And rare.

The percentage of things we have that we never ever use again is astonishing.

Same with the percentage of things we will eventually need.

What we go through life never knowing is would the risk to shed our stuff lead us to a freedom and joy that is incomprehensible?

Anyone hoping to find out?

We were convinced they were in the right order

What is karma? And is it important? And how or why/why not?

 

Ever have a few days with a string of events reminding you of the difficult nature of managing our priorities?

Our exposure to things we normally aren’t exposed to challenges the order of our priorities.

The very same priorities we were convinced were in the right order.
