Priorities shift

The backstory is incredible. Sparing the details for now (and maybe forever). Serendipity and karma made us interstate friends in our son’s college town.

Like a broken record, everyone is going through a hell know one knows about.

Through tireless parental efforts and parental advocacy, even a 30-something non-social, non-verbal child has managed to adapt and live a unique, yet incredibly different life.

Imagine the life these parents dedicated to supporting their special child. In the future, Andrew is going to face challenges the parents will likely not be around to advocate for.

Forgive reprise

Forgive unhealthy habits. We all have them. Ensure your good habit batting average is “hall of fame” worthy.

Everyone is going through a hell no one knows about.

If you doubt this because you are an exception, you are one blessed human.

Who isn’t going through a hell no one knows about?

Fame and success bring a set of hell-issues you and i can’t fathom. How do i know? i spent a lifetime around fame and success at Disney.

Yes, even Brady is going through a hell no one knows about. How do i know? i know you’re going through one right now. How do i know? Because we all are.

Who isn’t going through a hell no one knows about?

Easy.

No one.

Everyone is going through a hell no one knows about

perspective
How much money do you need, and where do you need to go to get new experiences? At 21, i left Pennsylvania on a bicycle with $75 cash and no credit cards and no checkbook. Saw many things, places, and people outside of my Pennsylvania hometown.

 

There is a great equalizer in life.

You’ve probably heard of the prince (“rich”) and the pauper (“poor”).

Here’s the equalizer, no matter your place in society…

Everyone is going through a hell no one knows about.

 

Excuses are simply a crutch to justify feeling stuck.

You don’t have to hold on to a dream you think you’re supposed to have.

Seriously, i had $75 to my name and traveled 1,100 miles through nine states – on a bicycle.

In my opinion, the person’s comment in the photo is either trolling-bait for a reaction or an excuse to justify not taking risks.

Creativity is your gift to modify, challenge, and raise your expectations.

PS. As a bonus, another no-cost option: talk to everyone you meet…on the bus, on the sidewalk, in line at the store, in the library, etc, etc….you don’t even need to travel to get diverse perspectives.

Are thrivers immune from hell?

Motivational speaker jeff noel
The upper left corner starts with “Some”…torn a corner of a magazine (probably while on an airplane) to write down a thought.

 

All of us are:

  1. Currently going through a hell no one knows about
  2. Just came out of a hell no one knew about
  3. About to unknowingly go into a hell no one will know about

Those of us who don’t talk about these things aren’t lucky or immune from “bad things”, we just choose to not dwell on where we’ve been, instead we give thanks for making it through and making it back.
