Compliance and the comfort it provides

Mid Life Celebration at Epcot
The Circles of Life?

 

Stumbled upon this yesterday.

Telling a great story is what a brand does.

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.

Four things they have that the others haven’t mastered yet

Stack of Mid Life Celebration books
Most people dream of publishing a book.

 

When we think about how lucky someone else is in their career, know what happens to our psyche?

We sabatoge it.

We stifle it.

We do many things, except get a grip and understand that at one time, they were exactly where we are now.

And admit that why they are where they are is because they refused to let mistakes, embarrassment, pain, rejection, ridicule, and exhaustion stop them.

How does one know such things?

Tenacity, perseverance, determination, and milestones.

Obvious. Important. Then buried. Invisible to everyone but ourselves.

 

Our greatest opportunities for self improvement are those moments when we catch ourselves thinking negatively about someone.

It’s a weird (cruel?) reality.

The revealing of our blind spot(s) should be joyful.

Because now we know.

And we can train ourselves to change and become better.

What makes us smile because we’ve worked hard our whole life to reach a certain point in our life?

And does anyone know?

Does anyone even care?

In the big picture, it doesn’t matter.

Because we do it for ourselves and the things it allows us to do for others.

Heading to Disney’s Magic Kingdom Park today. And tomorrow.

Shoot, can go there seven days a week if desired.

Talk about miracles, no?
