A wonderful client. A fond memory. Being on the mailing list and getting random emails like this one is fun. Smile-worthy.
When a client describes your keynote using words like phenomenal (my fav), incredible, unbelievable, it sounds too good to be true. But sometimes it is true.

Don’t bequeath dreaming to people you don’t know before bequething dreaming to yourself.
Don’t bequeath dreaming to yourself and then doing nothing and half-baking your desire and efforts.
This is what i believe.
At peace, and content, with only the highest bars for all five of life’s big choices.
Ps. Did i mention we are heading back to Glacier (tomorrow) for a second time before Summer? A Winter visit and a May (Spring) visit are firsts in our lifetimes.

It’s easy to tell what people want. Their results come from their habits. So if they want different or better results, they need different or better habits.

Our house Guest last week discovered i am a daily blogger, because Cheryl told her.
And i added some context to that story, so she heard i write because i love writing and want to leave a tangible trail for our son.
By the way, our college freshman Son is the only reason our relationship with Paige grew.
We attended a student and parent’s weekend “writer’s workshop” during the first parent’s weekend trip we made to our son’s college.
We met our son’s favorite professor, Phaye, and asked her if she was a Disney fan.
Phaye was/is not.
But!
But Phaye’s assistant is one of the biggest Disney fans on the planet. So much so that she once worked at a Disney Store.
Months after we met Phaye, Covid began and our son came home for Spring Break in March 2020, he (nor anyone at his college) didn’t return until 18 months later, August 2021.
At some point all students needed to clear their dorm room for the new school year. To be clear (again), there was an 18-month gap between students going home for 2020 Spring Break and returning for Fall Semester 2021.
Worth noting that a majority of students are an easy round trip drive to campus from home.
Paige single-handedly packed our son’s dorm room belongings and stored them in her office.
Eventually in August 2021 we flew up for the world’s (most of the world anyway) return to on campus living and moved his stuff from Paige’s office (and home) to a his new dorm room.
She used our sons two suitcases plus one of her own as ‘boxes’ to pack up his stuff. There wasn’t enough room in her office to store the three suitcases on top of the other items.
Note: The two photos are unintentional, out of focus Magic Kingdom fireworks photos.

A rare day but they do happen…using the same picture twice in one day.
Insist your love for your passion is greater than your fear.

Insight: Treat culture as a management tool designed to embed (operationalize) new-thinking habits. These changed habits and mindsets lead to predictable, habitually intentional decision-making and better results.

Limits serve a purpose. Some are critical, some are stifling. Embrace and adapt to both, as appropriate.

What was your onboarding experience?
Who’s your trainer?
Who’s your go-to person(s).
What delighted you most at work during your first couple weeks onboarding?
Note: This post’s title (50% of previous efforts) is inspired by today’s one-week post cataract surgery followup exam. Grateful Dr Callaway is blessing me with a return to ‘50% of previous efforts’ for pre-cataract surgery physical routines.
