Are you on LinkedIn?

Mid Life Celebration book at Epcot
Interesting resumes do not happen magically

 

The most interesting thing about LinkedIn profiles is how good everybody looks on paper.

Seriously, have you ever spent 30 minutes and just read as many profiles as you can?

With rare exceptions they all sound like this:

I’m so smart, I’m so smart, I’m so smart.

It’s gutsy to put a resume out there that contradicts every piece of conventional resume writing protocol.

It’s also fun.

Better late than never?

Compliance and the comfort it provides

Mid Life Celebration at Epcot
The Circles of Life?

 

Stumbled upon this yesterday.

You can’t begin to tell a story without understanding why that story should matter to the people you want to serve.  – Bernadette Jiwa

Anyone who tries to please the mainstream deserves everything they get. – Hugh MacLeod

Life is not a dress rehearsal. Live like you mean it.

Why listen to America’s work life balance expert?

Because without balance there can be no peace.

Without peace, there can be no contentment.

Without contentment, there can be no peace.

The circle of life.

Nothing makes dreams happen faster than these four things

Am I wrong?

 

Tonight a friend retires at age 55.

How will the people gathered there to celebrate feel about her age?

Happy and ecstatic for her?

Bitter or jealous it’s not them?

We can wish and we can hope, but nothing makes dreams come true faster than these four things:

  1. Vision
  2. Focus
  3. Discipline
  4. Patience

How can we know for sure?

Guessing our friend doesn’t know for sure, but she’s willing to move forward anyway, with a disproportionately greater sense of hope than the average.

Be careful what you wish for dude.

In my line of work, I seem to see a lot more than most. – Jimmy Buffett

A seasoned, busy management consultant sees similar life scenarios played out in business.

The time for average is way past over.

Yet many business professionals slog on, in spite of the insanity of it all.

The only upside to this prison sentence is that most nights the prisoner can sleep at home.
