Self-reflection is like bathing

Self-reflection is like bathing.

i feel better about myself if i do it everyday.

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.

 

This website is about our career health. To leave this site to read today’s post on my home health website, click here.

 

What makes you qualified?

What makes you qualified?

For starters, i do all the stuff i preach about.

Self-confidence and arrogance often look like twins.

And so it goes.

Another in a long list of challenges that are ripe with excuses for backing down.

We all have our biased opinions

Disney Leadership Speaker
Donations will come from speaking revenue, not from book revenue.

 

We all have our biased opinions. What is exceptionally intriguing is how and when we take action based on our opinions.

Anyone can form an opinion and secretly think it’s brilliant.

But will it work in the real world?

Wanted to reduce the Kindle price to between one and two dollars – the price of an App. Even contemplated offering it for free. Xulon Press, the Publisher, can go no lower than $4.99. So that’s what we agreed on.

It took one day to change that price.

Have been quietly and secretly working on reducing the Amazon price for the paperback version of Mid Life Celebration. Aimed for seven or eight dollars, knowing Amazon further discounts books – bringing the purchase price near five dollars.

But $10.99 is the lowest Xulon will go. It took weeks to get this answer and then weeks to have it go live.

Live is in six days, on April 4, 2015. See for yourself, here.

Opinions mean nothing without action.

The joy of being the boss

Pope Francis

 

(photo: A surprise, and astonishingly brave and inspiring speech just three days before Christmas: Calling out the hypocrisy on the vatican Cardinals.)

First Christmas in 30 years where there are no worries about getting time off to spend with Family.

The responsibility of being self-employed hasn’t fully sunk in.

But the joy of being the boss has.

You don’t realize the weight (of corporate tradition) until it’s gone.
