You can’t be serious

Disney Keynote Speaker Jeff Noel
Halloween, 2014.

If Disney ran my retirement, Disney would insist i have daily habits and rituals that bring me joy, purpose, and laughter.

dad

You can’t be serious.

Right?

You’ve been writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts for how many years without missing a single day?

Yes.

Why?

Daily, balanced writing brings me peace and contentment.

The late and long-lasting snow last night cancelled my plan to fill the tank this morning. Closest gas station is six miles. Airport is 100 meters away. Roads are icy.

We’ve been to Goat Haunt near Canada. Not many visitors know about it. But this Goat Haunt is new. Part of Glacier Airport’s expansion.

The first time i retired from Disney is also the last time.

Weird yet accurate.

Haunting even.

But not like a Goat Haunt.

The long way

The shortcut, as you know, is the long way.
Funny quote card
Many can relate. Reminds me that ignorance is bliss, in the proper context.

The long way is the short cut.

dad

There are no short cuts.

Wisdom comes from experience and experience comes from making mistakes. This takes a long time to learn enough to be wise enough.

Time and change waits for no one.

dad

Over focus on observing how others do and don’t anticipate and or react to change.

Benchmark what helps and what hurts people’s outcomes.

Knowing you are blessed is different than being constantly ‘present’ in your infinite blessings.

dad

Like every habit, you shape it into autopilot through repetition.

Being constantly grateful is a habit.
