Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
You are responsible for everything as an entrepreneur.
Not saying this to discourage you.
Saying it to enlighten you.
Know in advance there will be a steady stream of things requiring your attention.
Some of them are predictable.
Others are not – see photo notes above.
Master simplicity or the “busy-ness” will overwhelm you.

Being busy lets you do this one thing to literal perfection.
Hide from your mission and purpose in life.
First, you refuse to be clear, concise, and compelling about your purpose.
Second, (insidiously) without clarity, you hide from your real work – the risky stuff that may not work – the stuff that makes others uncomfortable – but if it worked, it would triumphantly change everything.
Because you aren’t clear, you and everyone else, can’t tell what success looks like.
Hiding.
Safe.
Can’t be a failure, right?
Can’t see the bullseye, so missing it goes unnoticed.
Safe.
We like safe.
Safety adds insult to injury.
Without clarity, you lose all sense of urgency.
Without urgency, distraction trumps focus.
Without focus and urgency, being busy comforts you.
And exhausts you.
And everyone around you.

When we walk out our door into the busy world each morning, what’s on our mind that inspires us to no end?
Is it one thing all day long or a series of small things, constantly changing before our very eyes.
Is it the morning sun illuminating the flowering weeds next to the unmaintained street?
Is it the decision to slow the pace of life down and walk instead of drive?
Is it the decision to fly all day to meet someone versus just speaking on the phone?
The answer, it would seem, is always “Yes”.

Who’s the CEO of “You, Inc”?
We transition from one busy, ordinary day to the next, mostly driven by our good intentions of getting to the important stuff “tomorrow”.
Friendly reminder to your CEO. Today is yesterday’s tomorrow.

What is the traditional side effect from our prosperity?
Sorry, we are just really, really busy. This is a traditional side effect to prosperity.
And in our prosperity, we have the opportunity to savor it or rush headlong in the pursuit of more.
A 25-day notice. A patient, eight day wait until his leader announced it to the team.
But last night the email announcement finally allows for some personal choices on how the future retiree will share his news with people he cares about.
It will be fun to read this in 100 days and look back on this prosperity.
