Chamber of Commerce weather

Thankful we got this view from the Grinnell Glacier Overlook hike two days ago. The weather couldn’t have been more conducive to great hiking conditions. 

Chamber of  commerce weather is a phrase used to describe ideal weather in the Chamber’s heartland. 

That’s the weather Djuan and i experienced the day we hiked up to Granite Park Chalet. 

Yesterday, however, was the opposite weather, had we stayed last night. 

Approximately 8:00 AM yesterday. 
About 9:00 AM. 

Neither of us wanted to leave behind our second night – and the final night of the Granite Park Chalet 2019 season – yet we knew it was the right (tough) call.

Personal leadership requires focus and discipline. 

Same at work. 

Be amazed and be amazing.

Like a girl

Brittney solo-summited Mt. Reynolds and ensured i descended in a safe manner. i never saw her as a girl, i saw her as an expert.

As a member of Dan Cockerell’s leadership group, his newsletter hits my inbox once a month. He shared this video…

Like a girl means something inspiring and bold to a new generation of girls.

Thank goodness.

Their vision of what “like a girl” means is a game-changer.

Hey men, wake up and stop the unconscious biases. i have work to do to eliminate unconscious bias in every area of my life as an older white male.

You’re privileged when your privilege is invisible to you.

Shining a bright light is key

Clouds carrying rain arrived just after i took this photo. Tested a pocket “emergency” poncho on the descent yesterday.

Shining a bright light is key.

What?

As a leader, shine a bright light.

Light is energy.

Energy is growth.

We can manage under low-light conditions, or even in the dark, but not as well as when things are brightly illuminated.

As CEO of You, Inc, you are in charge of high energy lighting.

Marvel

This postcard Grizzly looks like a lighter version of the one i came face to face with one week ago.

Marvel.

Even though i came face to face with a Grizzly last week, i still feel anxious hiking alone.

Bears are on a feeding frenzy now, beefing up before hibernation (or they’ll die).

Hardly anyone on the trails.

You are literally on your own when you hit the trail.

Some trails are 10-20 miles.

No wifi.

No cell.

i marvel at it all.

Write the next book

Lake McDonald is 10 miles long, plus another 6-7 miles to the Garden Wall.

Write the next book.

Write it already. 

i’m tired of waiting.

Turn your fear into history, jeff.
