Last day at home, work

packing light
Old photo from day-pack planning. Only these items, plus what i wear on the plane, for an 11-night trip to Glacier National Park. Plus, temps will be near freezing most mornings. Remarkable.

Personal leadership thoughts while rechecking my ‘travel parachute’.

That’s what i call my small kiddie daypack.

Why?

Because it’s a lifeline/lifesaver.

Literally want for nothing with its contents.

How do i know?

Couple decades of hands-on experience, around the globe as well as deep-in off the grid.

They’re going to Paris, work

Man Will Never Fly
A 2010 Rocket launch, from my office window. The pattern is well after launch and the winds did what they do.

‘They’ are Cheryl and me.

We’re going to Paris.

Wheels up in 48 hours.

Feels like hitting the career lottery.

Serve your future, work

The clock IS ticking!

Serve your future at work.

Blinding flash of the obvious, why wouldn’t i?

i’d be a fool not to.

Taking the day off, work

18-sec video: Florida Black Racer. Barely visible. But I spotted it while taking a short sit-down break.

Taking the day off from blogging seems like a ridiculous thought, let alone a ridiculous thing to type.

Yeah, like that is ever gonna happen.

But seriously.

The hours i spent today thinking about a simple, repetitive sentence. Unusually invested in ‘almost nothing’.

Anyway, am surprised to see the words flow well past one sentence copied and pasted on each blog.

Spent a lot of time thinking about how to blog with a single sentence for all blogs.

When doing manual and enjoyable labor, tending to your landscape (garden), there’s plenty of ‘thinking time’.

T-minus 5 days, work

“Purging-leadership” must confront, balance, and act on three compelling reasons not to purge.

It can be challenging to purge because our ‘stuff’ offers three benefits.

Our stuff…

  1. Reminds us of who we were.
  2. Reminds us of who we are now.
  3. Reminds us who we want to become.

Without stuff from our past and present, how do we manage our life’s meaning and our future identity?

How do we travel to the future without feeling unprepared?
