Zoom positivity and hope

Used a stick figure to make the simple case for mind, body, spirit. We take mind, body and spirit to work and we bring all three home.

Couple weeks ago accepted Jody Maberry’s invitation to join him and Lee Cockerell in Dan Cockerell’s mastermind group. The event was at noon today. Jody gave 20 minutes which would be followed by Q&A. Dan said to take whatever was needed.

Talked big-picture about balance (personal vibrancy) for 12 mins and opened it up for Q&A.

Key points:

  1. Balance has five categories: mind, body, spirit, work, home
  2. Time is a flawed balance-metric
  3. Discerned that energy, not time, is the supreme metric
  4. Balance and personal vibrancy are interchangeable

Racism has to go

water lily
What we like or dislike in others is a reflection of what others like or dislike about us.

Racism, to me, feels like an extension of a larger issue, discrimination. i am not smart enough to speak expertly, only as a novice. A novice with 60+ years of observation experience.

Discrimination, in my opinion and from my six decades of experience, is rooted in strongly held stereotypes.

Ironically, stereotypes are nondiscriminatory.

There are many “categories” ripe for creating stereotypes.

Age, religion, ethnicity, sex, sexual preference, height, weight, hair color, hair style, hair length, the car (or truck) you drive (or public transportation you use), job experience, socio-economics, clothes, marriage status, kids or no kids, zip code, political affiliation, accents, glasses or no glasses, education level, hobbies, active or inactive lifestyle, and a litany of endless other categories.

The older you get, stereotypically, the more you’ve seen, learned, and experienced. You learn there are now things that matter that you didn’t think mattered before. You learn there are things that don’t matter that you once thought were written in stone (for example, marriage is between a man and woman).

Here’s to a future that’s not only better than now, but much better than now.

A future with no negative stereotypes, no racism, no hate. A future filled with positive stereotypes, unconditional acceptance, never-ending love.

Lead or be?

Disney Customer Service Keynote speaker name tag
Who carries a Disney name tag to Glacier National Park? A crazy person no doubt. Here’s to the crazy ones.

Do you want to lead the category or be the category?

Writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts for 13 years and counting, makes you a category of one.

Then you add no commenting, no social sharing, no email collection, no sales funnel.

You don’t promote your blog, and never have, even when you deliver Disney Customer Service Keynote Speeches.

You truly are a rare bird.

Rock on and never let your memories be bigger than your dreams.

safety sign
Three common sense requests. These are displayed because some people are not capable of thinking this way without a reminder. If they were, no sign is necessary.
Sometimes a brief video makes a “photo” location come alive.

Most Americans are entertained, medicated, and distracted.

We are hoodwinked. Tricked. Lied to.

By whom?

A long list of perpetrators.

At the list’s top is the person running your life.

Ouch. Of course ouch.

Fix this.

Please.
