Hard to see the fine print so here it is enlarged for everyone’s convenience:

Be well and remain amazed.

Organized to maximize vibrancy

Beginning a one-week vacation tomorrow.

Originally scheduled to relax and return to North Carolina to visit college friends.

Instead, it’s pedal to the metal to get retirement logistics buttoned up.

Health care.

Pension.

401k.

Plus some change-the-world kind of stuff.

The thought of being the visionary feels vibrant.

Decades of thought. Six years of serious foundation building, including $80k on “bricks”.

Who wants to look back on their life and wished they had given everything?

Knowing is never enough

Space Mountain

 

(photo: Space Mountain on the drive home from work last week)

Having a back up plan requires one of two things:

  1. A mountain of preparation.
  2. A complete disregard for the realities about to ensue.

Only one logical, world-class choice.

We know this.

Knowing is never enough.

Nothing counts unless we take action. Six years worth in this case.

We know this too.

So sure of ourself one minute, so afraid the next

We can only be or have one or the other, not both

 

When we set a big goal and prepare for it for several years, something obvious happens. Time passes.

And the closer we get the reality gradually amplifies.

To a fever pitch sometimes.

Ranging from feelings of separation (like from a sudden death) anxiety to unbelievable excitement for the next greatest adventure in life.

Not uncommon to change your mind several times in a single day. And each decision seems final, until it doesn’t again.

It feels like insanity sometimes.

So sure of ourself one minute, so afraid the next.

Why?
