Gratitude is your most powerful “weapon”

Booked a four-day trip yesterday, but mistakenly entered it as a three-day trip. Discovered the error 90 minutes after booking. Delta wasn’t going to charge a change fee, but to rebook it the fare increased almost 50%.

Yikes.

A 50% increase in less than two hours.

Sure.

Algorithms.

For only three nights, i decided to cancel.

So grateful i could cancel without a penalty.

Gratitude eliminated any frustration (for price inflation) i could have summoned because i focused on what i gained, not what i lost.

Does your work make you feel like you are part of something bigger than yourself? Something important?

At the airport by 4:15AM. Rental car counter at 4:27AM. No waiting at airport security check point.

Relaxing in the gate, i felt compelled to call Alamo, so i did.

The counter phone number and the location manager number wouldn’t allow leaving a voice message.

Third time’s a charm – Director of Operations worked.

Make no mistake, everything is business driven

Potential lead for 2018.

 

Apgar Village Lodge Cabins
Our Apgar Village Lodge tour of the cabins was scheduled the day before, after we stopped in and spoke with the Manager, Shirley.

The Manager toured us through two cabins.

The cabins we saw aren’t the configuration of my 2018 reservation.

 

Apgar Village Lodge Cabins
Simple. Clean.

 

Apgar Village Lodge Cabins
Simple, small, and handy.

Nothing fancy.

 

Apgar Village Lodge Cabins
Just to get a frame of reference.

Bigger kitchen, different cabin.

 

Apgar Village Lodge Cabins
My 2-cabin reservation for 2018 has five bedrooms and all of them are private. No bed will be in a living space like pictured here.

 

Make no mistake, everything is business driven

Because we didn’t have an agenda, taking a cabin tour was easy.

It was helpful to have Howard see Cabin 20 (next to Lake McDonald Lodge) and these two cabins (10 miles to the South in Apgar Village).

Karma attracts what karma projects.

Friendly people attract other friendly people.

Nature lovers attract other nature lovers.

A servant’s heart attracts other servant’s hearts.
