Go get ’em Greta

A hidden gem, this angle. Heavy Runner (middle right) from an angle no one sees. Even the people who climb Mt Reynolds have no reason to hike to this place.
Panorama. Glacierally-carved. Yesterday morning.
Blackfoot Glacier. From 150 glaciers in 1850 to 23 glaciers in 2019. Forecast is for all 23 to be declassified as glaciers by 2030.
This flat “peninsula” was an easy and stunning walk.

This group sold us on walking out there.
Same group, upper right. Zooming out for context.

Go get ’em Greta.

A 16-year old Swede is making our World uncomfortable with our collective apathy towards global warming.

Supremely courageous leadership is rarely popular because, while the cause almost always has unanimous agreement something should be done, almost no one will act.

For example:

Mental illness, gun control, obesity, opioids, divorce, sex trafficking, internet addiction, etc, etc.

Greta’s guts to call people (particularly policy makers like the UN) out inspires the heck out of me.

It makes me question my convictions too.

This is comfortably uncomfortable.

Thank you Greta.

Great work can be lonely if…

Stumbled upon this on the descent. Brittney just so happened to be descending right after i said goodbye to Shane and Jeremy. She solo-summited Reynolds and followed behind me so i could learn. It was scary until it wasn’t.
In the light on the left is Swiftcurrent Mountain with the fire tower (you can see it). In the center is Mt. Oberlin. Have summited both of these 8,200’ peaks. The only two summits so far.

Great work can be lonely if…

You don’t teach others. 

It’s impossible to be a great leader if those closest to you don’t benefit from your experience, wisdom, and teaching.

The challenge is you have to have faith because you may not live long enough to see your most cherished loved ones reach their highest potential and purpose.

Stand out

Brightest shirt i could find at WDW. It will be my outer layer on every solo hike.

Stand out.

Figure out what this means to you and then be true to yourself.

Know that as you age and experience life, your priorities and goals will change as you change.

Embrace and welcome this.

Be amazed and be amazing.

If Disney Ran Your Life what would you do differently?

What would be optional and what would be mandatory?

It’s gauranteed your life would change if Disney ran it.

Everything would get better.

If Disney Ran Your Life is on iTunes Podcasts.

Or just Google it.

How scary can it be?

Working to win or working to not lose?

Either choice is scary.

One is filled with doubt, but possibility.

The other with stability, but regret.

It’s critical to be clear about this.

(If you want to live with peace and contentment.)
