Don’t let the sun go down

unique mountain ridge formation
In a few minutes the stunning light fades. We drove from the East over Logan Pass. Literally 300 meters from the Pass this view suddenly becomes available. Our timing to see a setting Sun find a small opening to set this section on fire is humbling.

Never count on random people to transform your life. However, sometimes it happens. Enjoy the karma you project.

Meeting Steve and Stacy Wahlberg on the backside of Reynolds Mountain at 8,600′ is absolute randomness.

World-class randomness for sure.

We saw something in each other, without trying.

The Universe aligned us that cold, windy, yet brilliantly sunny morning.

We were the only three people on the mountain.

i was hiding from the harsh wind behind the lone boulder in the expansive scree field.

They were heading up for their 12th Reynolds summit, in honor of Stacy’s father, a true mountain man.

California dreaming

Being in Disney’s California Adventure, for business, after a two-year Covid hiatus reminds me of California dreaming.

Business travel, twice in three weeks, reminds me why i started a business in 2009…

To have more control over being away from home.

Which resurfaces a dream, but not a California dream.

An Orlando, jeff and Cheryl Noel dream.

A dream to travel with Cheryl as a business partner.

And the easy to forget original dream…

To be an Orlando Disney Customer Service Keynote speaker.

Leave and return to my driveway on the same day.

Night notes to self

Mid Life Celebration book
New York City subway wall.

Middle of night awoke with this self-conversation…

2 questions…

1. Does this sound unreasonable?

2. What are you prepared to do to achieve it?

Unpacked…(remember, it was 2am)…

1. Wouldn’t it be great to live with mental vibrancy, physical vibrancy, spiritual vibrancy, work vibrancy, and home life vibrancy?

2. Now, what’s your answer?

Assuming your answer is yes, what are you prepared to do to achieve it?

Because, you do believe you deserve it, and, that it would be wonderful to live that way. Then the only question really, is what are you willing to do next? And for how long?

Couple weeks ago.

 

The odds of me following through on that crazy 2008 post and starting a business and leaving Disney…

In reality, close to zero.

Don’t keep wishing for it if you aren’t willing to work for it

Don’t recall why i took the screen shot two days ago, but it fits perfectly with today’s post.

 

Don’t keep wishing for it if you aren’t willing to work for it.

 

Serendipitously, the photo above illustrates how many days in a row you can go with your foot on the brake as you chase your dream.
