Dear Son, don’t let this temptation stop you

Parking lot
Qdoba’s parking lot is microscopic compared to the local Theme Park parking lots.

 

Dear Son, don’t let this temptation stop you.

Don’t let what you can’t do stop you from what you can.

Man outside of Qdoba last night: Hey buddy, I’m kinda homeless, can you spare anything?

Dad exiting with his dinner to go: Sorry, i don’t carry cash.

Man: Ok, thanks anyway.

Dad, walking to parking lot turns around and goes back to the man: Have you eaten dinner today?

Man: No.

Dad, explaining it’s a simple children’s chicken quesadilla meal, with chips and guac.

Man: I don’t want to take your dinner.

Dad: i can buy another one.

Man: Gratefully accepts the to-go bag, grabs his small backpack, and walks away.

Dad, returning to his car notices the cashier who rang up his meal – she was watching the whole thing go down.

She seemed surprised. And maybe a little heart warmed.

So what benefited two, actually had a ripple effect for a third.

Unintentional.

That’s how powerful actions are.

Intended or otherwise.

Please forgive anything that appears the antithesis of humility

Please allow humility to flourish.

An entrepreneur needs to be extremely confident and driven. An entrepreneur is borderline delusional. An entrepreneur is in charge. An entrepreneur may come across as self-absorbed.

This is ugliest part of having a crazy dream and being hellbent on seeing it through.

Please forgive anything that appears the antithesis of humility.

Humility and hidden talents

Humility and hidden talents surround us. They’d overwhelm us if we knew them all.

It’s a very cool realization.

And even crazier, we already know this.

Yet forget this daily.

What if we didn’t?
