Gratitude-aholic

I work as my father drank.

George Bernard Shaw

Of all the things that have consumed me for years, decades, or a lifetime, my current favorite is gratitude.

Four against one and they lost

Disney legacy Award
The comment by Jeff is not me. Pretty sure it is J. Jeff Kober, former Disney Cast Member, Disney Author, consultant, and Founder of Disney At Work.

Best Buy last night for one wifi lightbulb. Easy peasy. Get up to the front of the checkout que easily because it was empty. Four cashiers at the registers.

i waited to be called by one of them.

Crickets.

It was fascinating.

When i was finally called, the cashier kept talking with the cashier next to him, as if i wasn’t there.

Seriously, this fascinated me so much that i remarked about how four cashiers with no customers in front of them and i had to wait.

Gave a free customer service riff in hopes it will help them up their customer service game.

Not unhappy nor disappointed, but definitely pointed.

Son, wake ups calls, of any duration or magnitude are gifts. In the choice to be grateful or angry, choose grateful.

PS. i wrote you a book and published it in 2013…it’s the antithesis of a Mid Life Crisis wake-up call.

Plan for it to end

Daisies
Anomaly? It happens. A few days ago driving Going-to-the-Sun Road for the final time before heading home.

 

Plan for it to end. Literally a four day notice. Thankful for the time we had and what we accomplished together in 90 days.

Is there a chance it will continue?

Of course.

Remain optimistic, keep moving forward, and expect the unexpected.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

Seeing the upside is the only option

Some perspective. The town of Waterton is the peninsula on the right.

Waterton, Alberta was a delightful mountain lake town. I’d go back in a heartbeat. They had “city deer” that roamed freely in front yards and were kid friendly.
