Never get bored with the basics

Disney note card
Sent client a thank you note from Walt Disney World, home.

Never get bored with the basics.

For example…

A simple, timely, sincere thank you.

Appreciation is ‘Church’.

Basics: Be grateful

One room at 8,200′ has everything a person needs. An outhouse is nearby.

Never get bored with the basics, like gratitude.

Be grateful constantly.

Why?

You will find it impossible to be unhappy while you are grateful.

Always get bored

Are we there yet? How much longer?

Always get bored?

Yes.

What?

Always get bored with unanswered questions.

Become so bored with unanswered questions that you take action to become un-bored.

Figure things out well enough that your poor habits and rituals make you ill and impatient to transform.

Never get bored – motivation to transform is an inside job.

i know you know this.

Yes, and…

Knowing and not doing is the same as not knowing.

Critical to being a great leader is to be crystal clear and use simple, key, repeatable messages.

The world is crazy and we are busy enough with everything we are supposed to pay attention to.

Therefore, make the most important things habit.

Engrained.

Automatic.

Habit.

Non-negotiable.

Something worth defending.

Are you exceptionally comfortable building a fire?

Using what we found in our backyard, we built a great base.

After the initial large flare up, the fire will settle into embers and small flames.

Yesterday was the coolest Orlando day in seven months.

 

Are you exceptionally comfortable building a fire? We built a “cooking” fire last night in our backyard. Making a fire in a residential area is a piece of cake for me. Why? i’ve been making and using “campfires” for close to 50 years. It’s easy for me.

Then i got to thinking this morning. Are we exceptionally comfortable building a daily fire in our heart? A fire for loving a God we cannot see?
