Road Trip day 6, spirit

Caricature
Denver roadtrip…2015+-…and by roadtrip i mean trip. No driving. Why would i drive? Airplanes are insanely faster.

Roadtrips often replicate a masterclass.

dad

Traveling extensively (perhaps even, intensely) for two decades for work educates you on things that casual, regular travel never reveals.

In the grinding repetition you move past travel’s romance and enter travel’s darker side.

“No place like home” is a saying because it’s true.

The dark side?

You ain’t home when you travel.

Disney Keynote Speaker, Jeff Noel and his wife Cheryl
1994…busy climbing the corporate ladder…far too little time to reflect.

i spend all my waking hours hustling to be in the present moment.

dad

Slow and steady wins the race.

Wisdom is lost on youth.

Wisdom is lost without self-reflection.

Self-reflection, if it gets done at all, is often painful: regret, guilt, self-loathing to name a few pain points.

Disney Keynote Speaker Jeff Noel in the mountains
Jody Maberry sent this to me yesterday. From a 2022 hike we did.
18-second video: Random and blind video upload. The video i shot this morning will not upload. So this is the short term compromise.

Do your best with whatever hand you’re dealt. Be the most creative and intuitive ‘problem solver’ you know.

dad

Over-focus on everything.

Structure.

Process.

Idea generation.

Patience.
