What do we see in the reflection?
Vibrancy?
Panic?
Physically or spiritually.
Love yourself. Take care of yourself.
It’s the bridge to everything beautiful.

Is our fear alive and well?

Cross it and it could backfire
Allow your child the opportunity to do anything, but don’t provide so much opportunity they do nothing.
Both the child and the parent will sweat it out because the line between the two is not well defined.
Cross it and it could backfire.
And so it goes.

Prayers for the desperate and afraid
This is a little riff about being prepared before you ask for a life changing huge favor:
It’s been her project for the past 15 years. Her baby. The thing she has dreamt about and believes will make a difference in teaching Baby Boomers how to fearlessly navigate and use technology.
i agreed to talk with her, and generously committed to an hour. About 20 minutes in, a hidden agenda was discovered that was awkward because it blindsided me. It was uncomfortable.
She wanted me to be her ‘pitch’ man. Me.
She admitted that her book desperately needs to be updated. A contradiction to her commitment.
The premise before the call was to share advice, not become an ’employee’.
The call went ten minutes longer than scheduled, but i still had enough time to click on the email link Apple sent (after i easily scheduled an appointment) so that i could enjoy a 45-minute personal online tutorial.
Good luck to anyone trying to compete with Apple.

Ever feel guilty for feeling great?
Feeling guilty about feeling so good?
Ever feel guilty for feeling great?
Crazy thing though, the problems challenges faced in midlife are bigger than in our previous decades.
What’s different is our wisdom, strength, and patience to manage the stuff that’s in our control.
Self confidence grows through strenuous self examination.
It’s our job to master this and hone what works best for us.
Self examination can be steadily grown, even accelerated. Writing and speaking help.
And what helps even more is the time consuming preparation required to write and speak authentically.
How i do it and how you do it could be polar opposites.
Pretty cool huh?

When someone dies what do we say?
When someone dies what do we say?
- So sorry.
- Sorry for your loss.
- Praying for you and your family.
What if:
- You were so lucky to have her in your life.
- What a blessing he must have been.
- Treasure the wisdom you gained.
We are all going to die. Maybe the best defense is a good offense:
Live like you mean it.
Death isn’t what we fear. We fear that we waited too long to start living fully in our mundane, routine, daily-grind moments.
