Career mediocrity

A couple sitting high in the mountains — Nathan, from Granite Park, took this photo with his self timer. Wilbur front and center.

Mountains from a summit — Nathan also took this photo on the walk to Iceberg Peak where they were sitting in the previous photo. One of my favorite places in the world, Swiftcurrent, fire tower, Is in the center.

Good enough for government work.
Mediocrates

Career mediocrity flourishes if we never discover our purpose. Or, when we slowly get bored with our purpose and drift away, uncaringly.

What you owe the world

Tray table on a first class lunch — Lunch yesterday in Air Canada’s First Class Cabin was chicken parmesan and a Caesar salad with carrot cake. And i had a glass of red wine to go with the Italian theme.

You owe the world nothing.
dad

When your expectations are exceeded, remember how you feel. Strive to be an “exceeds expectations” factory.
dad

It’s easy to consistently exceed people’s expectations.

How?

Go the extra inch.

Ps. The universe doesn’t care, but it does feel the karmic energy that you put out into it. And the universe appreciates all the good energy. The Universe also looks, with disdain, on any negative energy you offer.

Why?

Honestly, i don’t know. But i want to believe that even the Universe doesn’t like a complainer.

View from third-floor apartment window — From my windowsill desk, you can see the back half of Paddy’s brewpub.

Travel reminds me how much i love our home.
dad

It’s called a honeymoon effect for a reason.

Understand the insight, and transfer it to everything about life.
