  1. TED Talk

DNS means Domain Name Server.
GoDaddy admin screen
Yesterday’s experience was the nudge i needed to delete my GoDaddy Legacy (2008) account and the four domain names and their associated URL’s.

There’s pain in negative work experiences, disappointments, and unproductive work sacrifices.

Pain teaches us.

The more pain we experience, the more education we get.

We can learn which pain is an investment and which pain is bankruptcy.

Investment pain is pain we welcome because we know believe it leads somewhere good. Perfect example is the 2008 decision to start my own business so that in 2014 (after 30 years at Disney) i could retire from Disney and go out on my own. Doing the same thing i did at Disney Institute, but being in charge of everything, especially my travel schedule.

Christmas vs Easter

Christmas vs Easter.

Which is your favorite holiday?

Christmas seems to be more festive, more fun, more celebratory. More decorations, songs, food, trees, presents, Santa, etc.

Christmas brings humanity a Messiah (in Christian doctrine).

Christmas is such a beautiful and humble love story.

Yet.

Yet Christmas means nothing without Easter.

Nothing.

Easter is hands down the most important day in my life.

Jesus-level Love.

Jesus-level redemption.

Jesus-level forgiveness.
