Younger and less experienced comes with a price

Do you know exactly what you want without having to do research, compare statistics, ask questions, etc? Generally not when we are younger and less experienced.

Working hard in an admirable way for a long, long time has an upside. You gain more control of things you had less control of when you were less experienced younger.

Walked into a dealership yesterday after the Saturday school festival and a few hours later walked out striking a fair deal on a new van. Same van we bought 11 years ago. A vehicle and company we trust.

Didn’t even test drive the vehicle. Why would you need to?

PS. Trusting the maker and trusting the seller are two entirely different propositions. Car dealerships have negative, long-seeded stereotypes. It would be great for the sellers to rupture them.

Attitude and expectation go hand in hand

Rocky Mountain National Park east entrance

 

Attitude and expectation go hand in hand.

It looked good on paper, but really, the days are long, focused, and tiring.

Time and energy for anything other than dinner and rest seemed logical, but uninspiring.

The thought of being so close to Rocky Mountain National Park and not making a fair and decent attempt to find time to make it happen seemed wrong.

The toughest job before us is this.

Being the CEO of You, Inc.

Leading ourselves is our number one responsibility.

And it comes with every emotion under the sun.

There is an illusion that the people who seem to have figured this out are lucky.

False.

Everyone is going through a hell no one else knows about.

Every. One.

Handle it.
