Batter up

Disney Management Consultant
Yesterday.

 

Everything begins with personal leadership. Life is so incredibly challenging. And we are both broken, and beautiful. We hope, we doubt. We triumph, we fail.

The circle of life.

One day, one moment at a time.

Keep swinging for the fence.

Self employed sounded so lame

Less than 24 hours ago the substitute dental hygienist (filling in) asked, “What do you?”

Only the second day into retirement no one had asked this question yet so there was no thought about an elevator speech.

So it sounded like this, “Self-employed.”

Ha.

Whenever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision.
– Peter Drucker

Add another to-do to the checklist – craft compelling elevator pitch.

And check one off – make a courageous decision.

Getting around people who are doing what you are thinking about doing

(how is that possible?)

Christmas day in front of the tree

Imagine a great group of coaches. Coaches successful at helping others fix their work culture.

And then ask the coaches if they use the same principles they preach in their own internal work group.

Imagine the response.

The obvious answer is ‘yes, absolutely’. But imagine the obvious answer not being the answer.

Now imagine asking jeff noel if his son has read the book, Mid Life Celebration. It was released eight months ago.

The answer would appear to be obvious.

In both cases, what if the the answer included…

Nothing is as it appears to be. -Albert Einstein

In one case, the results are not intentional.

In the other, leadership is using patience as strength.

The prayer is for those among us who hate their job

You are the CEO of You, Inc, and in charge of appropriate disruptions to change things

 

This blog is about our career. Our job. Our money maker.

But today everyone is being held up in a special prayer.

The prayer is for those in the world who hate their job, their boss, or anything else upon waking up.

Will you promise to begin to find a way out?

We pray for that.
