End of 2013, signing piles of my first book.

The promiscuousness of choice.

Tempting to not take the time, effort, and risk to decide for ourselves – out of all the noise – what our simple and guiding principles will be for our mind, body, spirit, work, and home.

At some point, we really should decide.

Growing up, it would have been great to have had a wise elder convince me of this through their own example.

Instead, becoming a Father in 2000, in my early 40’s, was the catalyst for personal transformation.

This one thing is harder than being organized

Tidying Up with Marie kondo
Four focused areas: 1. Clothing 2. Garages, closets, kitchens, bathrooms 3. Sentimental items 4. Everything else.

If you want the benefits that come from being intentional, guess what has to happen?

You have to become organized in order to become more intentional.

Being organized is hard.

But never forget, being disorganized is even harder.

Better late than never

Disney Springs
i remember when Disney Springs was vacant land, next to Disney Village Marketplace (DVM). My wife started as a Merchandise Hostess at DVM.

Better late than never.

You know why i always worked for a big company?

Because it’s all i knew.

It’s what literally all my friends did or still do.

And i believe that the experience gained was indispensable, i also believe i could have been more entrepreneurial working in a big organization.

Except for one thing holding me people back.

Fear.

Fear of getting fired.

Fear from taking risks that others were also afraid of taking.

At this point in my life, the thought of not being my own boss is nauseating.

Jesus was an alpha dog

limits on gifts to family
What’s the limit on giving? Death?

Jesus was an alpha dog.

How could anyone but an alpha dog step up to lead humanity to peace and comfort in an always troubled world?

Merry Christmas and Happy Birthday Jesus.
