Don’t judge a book by it’s cover

jeff noel Disney Speaker on training run

 

We let our guard down and pay the price. Yesterday’s 75-minute run didn’t begin until 11am. Shoulders sunburned. Covered in bugs.

And then as luck would have it during the cool down walk on our street, got to meet our future neighbors for the first time. Sweaty, bug ridden, shirtless. We never get a second chance to make a good first impression.

Right?

The antidote to “poor timing” is simple – a joyful, joy-filled spirit.

It never fails.

What’s on the inside is far more visible than what’s on the outside.

Kamar and Anita could see it clearly.

Be the change.

The gift of an ordinary day is now

jeff noel and Mike Attardi
Last night at Holy Family Catholic Church’s PREP class pep rally.

 

It’s easy to allow being moody to be okay, but it shouldn’t be.

Dropping by the middle school at lunch yesterday for an impromptu visit, the teen asked his dad, “How are you so happy all the time?”

“Gratitude”, the dad answered without hesitation.

Later that evening was PREP class and coincidently a pep rally for the “Soup-er Bowl Challenge”, with former NFL player Mike Attardi as the keynote speaker.

Mike saw the Pixar tee-shirt and introduced himself and his young son. We know many of the same Disney legends. Mike is an NFL legend to football fans, and to non-fans, he’s just another Parishioner.

Even legends must manage their mood.

And Mike was the perfect gentleman. With me, and then with the entire cafeteria full of middle-schoolers.

Newest YuGiOh card release.

 

When was the last time you were bullied? Last night?

Do drunk people get excused for their passive aggressive bullying in public?

After the conversation went deeper, the cashier at the tournament yesterday shared how a group of Saturday midnight movie goers threatened the lone movie goer (the tournament cashier) if he didn’t give up his seat.

He arrived 45 minutes early to get a great seat in the center of the theater.

In the blink of an eye, drunk people can get violent. He moved.

A $600 pen makes total sense

(photo: Who needs a $600 pen? Important, successful people probably.)

Orlando’s Mall at Millenia is decadent.

Material things are great at giving people a sense of something because we can see, taste, hear, touch, or taste them.

This tangible proof wouldn’t lie.

Right?

Three stages of life according to the VP of Sales

Orlando Speakers Bureau

 

(photo: To everyone who makes a career of doing meaningful work, thank you.)

Three stages of life according to the VP of Sales:

  1. Learn – life preparation for a career
  2. Earn – a career
  3. Serve – meaningful work after a career

Makes sense.

Wondering though.

Do the last two need to be mutually exclusive?
