Once a year is better

No breeze at 6:30 AM yesterday.
On yesterday morning’s pre-sunrise walk, a moment to admire our neighbor’s front yard. John is a Marine and was a Gunner in Vietnam.
Later yesterday.
John is proud of his service to our Country. Old Glory fueled by a warm November breeze.

Veterans Day 2019 was yesterday.

One day a year to honor our Veterans seems disproportionate to the blanket of Freedom we sleep under every night.

Here is a way of realizing that honoring our Veterans once a year is better than not having an official day…and what you might do starting November 12, today…

We come to know the true meaning of Veterans Day when we learn to celebrate it every day.

Hate the war, love the warrior.

Can we handle the truth?

1-10 written on a post-it note
On a 10 scale with 10 as high, how much truth do you want today?

Can we handle the truth?

In reality, nothing will help us move forward better than the truth.

Personal growth is transformationally facilitated through truth.

Why would we avoid personal growth?

Lean was my word for the year

Legacy Box note
Going the extra inch.

Lean was my word for the year three years ago.

A work in progress.

Lean meaning material things, processes, structure – everything it takes to live and manage our life.

Lean is a classic battle cry for less is more.

Expending serious effort so far in 2019.

Feels awesome.

The test we’d all like to pass but few are willing to take

The test we’d all like to pass but few are willing to take…

Be willing to put yourself in a real position where you may have to die to save someone else.

Today is Veterans Day 2018.

Facebook is flooded with people reminding their friends of this (did any of us not know?) and sharing photos of their parents and grandparents in uniform.

Are there any of us that didn’t have Family and relatives who served?

My Father-In-Law in WWII and my Dad in the Korean War, for starters.

In preparation to fly to Santiago, Chile tonight, i will fly over some of the least desirable places to raise a Family.

i start every day on my knees – since our son was born in 2000 – because we come to know the true meaning of Veterans Day when we learn to celebrate it every day.

The paradox of packing everything you think you’ll need

Disney Keynote Speaker
The weight isn’t from material things.

 

The more stuff we have, the more we have to focus on how to carry it, store it, protect it, organize it, clean it, and possibly even how to insure it.

The paradox of packing everything you think you’ll need is that we spend so much time and effort on our stuff that we can be too distracted to see what’s in front of us.
