Life is not a career desk job

quote about habits
Habits are what define every human.

Habits are what we think and do without thinking.

Auto pilot.

Some habits are intentional and some are formed by accident.

And the weird thing about habits is, habits don’t care if you meant to or didn’t mean to. You’re gonna be doing that thing for the rest of your life.

Take work for example.

Been working my whole life. And now being semi-retired for the past decade, the thought of not working at all makes me feel guilty.

Definitely not a fan of feeling guilty.

The thought of waking up and having the whole day be about what i want to do and what i want to enjoy, it almost seems hedonistic.

Working on a resolution.

Have fun

Snowman pillow next to Christmas tree
Snowmen are fun in Florida. Why? The juxtaposition. Makes us smile because Winter weather here is awesome. With all the blue, clear skies, sun, and warm temps.

If there is such a thing as a leader harvest or leadership harvest, have never heard of it nor seen it demonstrated.

Love the concept though.

First heard of it 20 seconds ago in my mind.

In jeff-land, the fruit of the leader harvest is a byproduct called fun.

Guessing you only get one shot at pro-level. Pro-level is where you transition from a busy career to an intentional exit off the career superhighway.

Just off the highway is an oasis most speed right by, never knowing.

It’s dreamy.

Surreal.

There you get to do what you want, when you want.

You receive a Royal compensation for this crowning-few-years of transition from top of your game to no longer competing.

Americans hardly ever retire from business: they are either carried out feet first or they jump from a window.

Retirement at 65 is ridiculous. When I was 65, I still had pimples.

Living on the edge

The business case for culture. The fact you can’t read it all is good. This stuff is my IP.

Living on the edge.

Aerosmith was my first concert in 1974, as a high school sophomore.

Totally feels like COVID-19 has people the world over living on the edge.

For the first time, i’m unemployed for the foreseeable future, this may be the first honest work break i’ve had in a lifetime. And thank goodness for our rainy day (year) plan.

Gotta admit.

It suits me.

All i’ve known is work.

All i know now is no deadlines, no travel, no contracts, no invoicing, no planning, no followup, and no client calls.

Not gonna lie.

In no hurry for it to end.

In today’s world, is that living on the edge or what?
