Be exceptionally comfortable with death

Hours after a 12-foot closeup Grizzly Bear encounter. Could have died. This is exactly where I was when it happened – a few steps away from Granite Park Chalet’s water station.

Being exceptionally comfortable with death is a gift you give yourself.

Your comfort with death is also a gift you give to your family and friends.

Peace and contentment is the new wealth.

Top 5 regrets of dying

Social media, yesterday, provided this image. i am thankful for today.

Top 5 regrets of dying.

Regret flourishes when we insidiously believe we have plenty of time to do things later.

Regret becomes real when we unexpectedly run out of time for later.

Next level

One of my favorite photos of us.

Next level spiritual and emotional core.

Is it possible to completely eliminate fear from end-of-life thoughts?

There’s only one way to find out.

This is the spiritual part on my Next. Well, that and spending as much time with Cheryl as possible.

My next is getting inspiringly clearer

Jeffrey Gitomer’s email message arrived yesterday. To which i have been espousing this personal mantra since 10th grade (1975), “Repetition is the mother of all learning.”

My next is getting inspiringly clearer.

Do you have a “next”?

What is your next?

Congrats on having an immediate answer. That’s a powerful self-signal.

My next is a three-year goal from June 8, 2019 to June 8, 2022. This means i’m five months into it already.

It is a reprise of the audacious and inspiring 10-year goal from June 2009 – June 2019.

What is inspiringly noteworthy is the fact that i’ve already made peace with life from that decade-long goal to do everything in life i wanted to if i lived only to my 60th birthday.

No male on my dad’s side lived past 60. i am the first.

This “next” is sharper, more poignant, and 70% shorter, making the urgency heightened.

A deadline (urgency, if you will) is a remarkable decision-making tool.

There’s no time to put things off.

Saying no, saying maybe, or saying later is no longer acceptable.

This inspires the heck out of me.

He’s dying with Grace

This is the last Sanibel sunset photo from our week-long trip. Was aware that Joel’s Sun might set before we returned to Orlando.

He’s dying with Grace.

Joel is the one who suggested our after-daycare hug in 2003.

We just concluded this tradition after Chapin’s final day in High School.

Today would be a perfect day to visit and thank him in person (again) – had the glorious opportunity to thank him six months ago when Disney Institute (DI) colleagues gathered after the funeral of another beloved DI colleague, 51-year old Sara.

Joel cried happy tears when i told him we were finishing a 16-year tradition, thanks to his simple idea.

Want to know the value of a single day? Talk to someone who’s counting theirs.
