A photo to inspire your artistry

Go the extra inch
A 2025 client made a packet of these for all 400 leaders. Its design is inspired from my 2019 TED Talk. They gave me a ‘recognition’ packet too. Months later i took it to Glacier. We rented eBikes before Going-to-the-Sun Road opened to vehicles. Then i took this photo.

Life is kinda funny

A decade after the previous classic photo, here’s another classic photo: The real-life version of my vision from that $2.99 K-Mart poster.

Life is kinda funny.

Different opinions.

Different values.

Different beliefs.

Different actions.

Different outcomes.

Finalizing your return

You know the saying, “Feels good to be done.”

Set a new world record for filing our income tax return.

So what?

Mid-February. Have you ever done it that early?

If yes, you know what i’m talking about.

If no, there’s still hope for you.

Note: Being done early with this annual chore will never piss you off.

Work patience

Work patience.

Have always worked, my entire life.

Said differently, i have never not worked.

Been patiently waiting to nudge myself into not working anymore.

Why?

Because not working is a milestone i’d like to experience.

Note: There are clients easy to work with, no patience required. There are clients that consistently test my patience to the max. Being sucked into corporate urgency, corporate complacency, and the corresponding ‘swirls and fire drills’…not worth it anymore. Don’t need to be in that space. A front porch rocking chair is in my future.

Don’t look back

1977. 440. Finish-line string (tape) visible across my waist.

Never looked back.

Looking back was said to shave a fraction of a second off your time.

In hindsight, turns out my races never were that close.

Yet the commitment to produce the fastest time was unshakable.
