Logan Pass view cloudy
The cold and clouds are unique to this visit.

Waiting outside the public restrooms, i noticed this – a “hidden smile”.

Had to take the obligatory photo for first-time visitors.

 

Mt Oberlin
The two snow patches (almost touching the American Flag flagpole) are noteworthy, but we didn’t know it at the time.

 

Mt Oberlin
The two snow patches are noteworthy because we hiked to the left one before returning back to here.

 

Live in intentionality every moment of every new day.

Learn to over-focus on things you used to under focus on or ignore.

Case in point…it’s the only reason yesterday happened the way it did.

Find a million ways to stay professionally motivated

Bear Grass at Glacier
Some in full bloom, some still pushing for fullness.

 

Find a million ways to stay professionally motivated.

Read.

Study.

Write.

Design.

Prepare – the workday begins the night before.

Dream.

Make your vision clear, concise, and compelling.

Watch videos.

Observe.

Take notes.

Make connections.

Teach.

Volunteer.

Forgive.

Travel.

Walk.

Initiate.

There is a fine line between continuing and quitting – passion will serve you well, lack of passion (or half-baked passion) will not.

Lean into discomfort.

Have fun.

.think .differently

Be remarkable.

Mentor.

Mentee.

Balance convictions with flexibility.

In matters of principle, stand like a rock.

In matters of style, swim with the current.

Pencil or broom. (In your career, you’ll use your brain or your body, pick wisely)

Taking risks is risky, so is playing it safe.

The best thing i ever did was start my own gig.

The thing that prepared me for my own gig was working for a world-class company.

How do you scale career excellence for an entire lifetime?

How do you scale career excellence for an entire lifetime?

Find a million ways to stay motivated.

Live as if every day is a new day (because it is).

Live in deep gratitude every moment of every new day.

Live as if you and the people you work with have a mission to make our world a better place.

If you can’t find people or an organization to make the world a better place, start your own organization – be an army of one if you have to.

Do work that is challenging and often difficult, yet simultaneously rarely feels like work.

See money as the reward, not the goal.

Glacier National Park trip four, work

Divide Mountain and Wild Goose Island
Divide Mountain and Wild Goose Island, dusk, July 2014. Just past Divide Mountain the Great Plains’ western border ends.

 

Glacier National Park trip four, work.

All nine days are focused on writing like i mean it.

Not a single day on the agenda that calls for zero writing.

Nature is like leadership: beautiful and brutal

Bear sighting near Hidden Lake Overlook from jeff noel on Vimeo.

 

Nature is like leadership: beautiful and brutal.

Many wonderful things are visible when great leadership (or stunning Nature) is present.

What’s brutal is the harsh reality of survival.

Glacier reminds its visitors that there is a food chain and death is a natural and necessary part of the beauty.

Leadership reminds us that some companies thrive for decades and others suffer a quick, or lingering, demise.
