The text came in last night that i had hoped wouldn’t

It took eight hours of incline peddling to reach the mountain pass.

 

The photo above is from my Honeymoon. It was a 17-day trip with $200 dollars in our pockets. We covered 600 miles. Not most 20-somethings’ vision of a Honeymoon.

.think .differently

Thinking, and more importantly doing, differently wasn’t learned at Disney, it was glorified.

The text came in last night that i had hoped wouldn’t.

We are somewhere close to being 100% apart on cost.

i am rationally realistic that i must begin to accept that walking away is a distinct possibility.

It will be a last resort.

But here’s the interesting thing, it will not take much longer to reach this decision.

Part of my brand is offering a value that is remarkably easy to take for granted.

My product holds a rare position in the management consulting business advising marketplace.

If a client can’t see it intuitively, it is likely to be a deal breaker.

Now you’re on to something

Who’s taking care of your fears?

 

There’s only one comfort zone that seems useful.

Getting comfortable with fear.

Dancing with fear.

Falling in love with fear.

Because once the relationship is rock solid, we understand there is nothing to fear.

Get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Then soar.

And thrive.

Plagued by our own potential

Some haven’t seen each other in 20 years, or more.

In a way, it’s almost like we haven’t been apart.

The conversation is still lively.

Some played cards after dinner.

 

Plagued by our own potential.

If we could slay our fear and doubt, we’d literally astonish ourselves.

This applies to work, of course.

And it also applies to something we no longer think about…our health.

For the past 48 hours, being with my ‘”brothers”, i can’t help but feel compelled to think about how we will age, if given the privilege, for the next 10, 20, or 30+ years.

Ever work invisibly on a game changing idea?

Quote about being a visionary
Photo: an hour ago from a friend’s Facebook update.

 

Have been working invisibly for the past week to create the right questions and the right vision to help someone who wants to change things.

My mission is to convince him to take an expensive risk that has no guarantee.

Why would anyone spend either side of $250k for something that cannot be guaranteed to work?

Why?

Because they want to become the category, not be the best in a category.

Taking risks is risky. So is playing it safe.

If we do nothing, we know what to expect.
