Fight hard

Glacier National Park
GNP.

I count him braver who overcomes his desires than him who conquers his enemies; for the hardest victory is over self.

You control nothing

LinkedIn message recently.

As an Executive Coach, my job is to teach Executives to fish.

A CEO literally controls nothing, but influences everything.

It’s the same for the parent of a teenager, you control nothing but you can influence everything.

Your example.

Your vision of the future.

The simplicity with which you live your life.

No one listens to what you say, they just watch what you do.

Nobody is going to tow you to success

Disney's Eyes & Ears
Eyes & Ears is the Walt Disney World Company newsletter. In English and Spanish.

 

Disney University
Yesterday’s lunch spot.

 

 

Nobody is going to tow you to success.

In this case (at this blog), we’re talking about personal peace and contentment.

You must do the heavy lifting to shed what doesn’t let peace into your life.

You must do the heavy lifting to eliminate distractions, medications, and entertainment that feels addictive.

Nothing in excess and know thyself

High School Graduation
Dr. Brenda Fields gave an inspiring and practical speech.

 

Nothing in excess and know thyself.

Our Son’s Latin teacher has a remarkable reputation at High School, and she was overwhelmingly chosen by the students to deliver the 2018 graduating class the commencement speech.

A significant part of her speech revolved around the Enid – with the two main point being:

  1. Nothing in excess
  2. Know thyself

Sound wisdom back then.

And still today.

Surrender like you mean it

Gapingvoid Art
Most people don’t exercise. Most don’t surrender either. Photo: yesterday’s email.

 

Surrender like you mean it.

My job as a business consultant and advisor is to evaluate.

To look, listen, and feel what is obvious to outsiders.

Why?

Insiders are too close.

They can’t see things with the clarity and unfiltered impressions a complete outsider sees.

This skill transfers – whether i want it to or not – to family, friends and colleagues.

To have valuable insight into undiscovered opportunity is a burden.

i surrender to what i can’t control.

Surrender requires a deep and complete letting go of the good choices never made.
