We think, we move, we feel, we contribute, we dwell.

Everyday prioritizing accumulates into a life.

Happy winter 2024, home

Winter happens every year. It’s never a surprise. We always know it’s coming. The closer you are to the Equator, the more blurred the seasonal lines become. Let’s think about how we traditionally spend our winters…

Ever think of yourself as the CEO of You, Inc?

If yes, why?

If no, why?

Let’s assume a few things:

Only one person is in charge of your life
Who do most people think is in charge of their life
Who do you think is in charge of your life
Everything in your life is your fault
Everything in your life is your success

We become what we think about.

Intentionally or unintentionally.

Can you imagine the difference between the two approaches?

What’s in your calendar?

small child in wildflower patch — Looking back two decades ago. It’s fun to do the math. The math is my vision back then and how that vision manifested over 20 years to today.

Decluttering frees you to get to the important stuff.

The personal leadership stuff.

The stuff that makes you happy.

The stuff you will never regret doing or getting better at.

What will you get today?

What if today all you get is what you were grateful for yesterday? -dad

Will it be enough?

Insight: Gratitude is one of my daily priorities. For decades i’ve been working hard to remain present in the moment. The moments are never-ending. That’s an ocean of gratitude.

Saying yes means no

Saying yes means saying no to something else.

Blessing or curse?

Depends.

The key to this conundrum is being intentional.

Intentionality depends on focus and discipline.

Focus and discipline is fueled by prioritized goals.

Personal vibrancy demands that you reach higher, care more, think deeper, and work harder.

Status quo, dogma, and tradition must be eliminated from your decision making.

Happy present moment.

Todays blogs took all day to write.

Why?

Blogging isn’t the only priority on my daily radar. Today is a Sunday. We visited neighbors until nearly midnight last night.

No rush to jump out of bed on this Sunday.
