No slides for only the second time

Glacier National Park

No slides for only the second time. Ever.

Spoke with Amir yesterday and it was weird to tell him i don’t have any slides.

Am i crazy?

With 2,000+- speeches delivered since 1999, only once have i not used slides. It’s a Disney practice to be highly visual.

The TEDx Talk next week will be speech number two with no slides.

Risky?

Absolutely.

i love calculated risks.

Breakthroughs are attracted to calculated risks.

Who doesn’t love breakthroughs?

Risk like you mean it

As a kid, i listened to the Swiss Family Robinson album over and over and over.
landscape plan design flaw
In three months, the Panera sign will be blocked. It will be 10-15 years or more before these palms clear the lettering. Sable palms grow 3″ per year.

Risk like you mean it.

Take risks when the need is low. Failure then will not matter much, if at all.

This is a glorious place to be.

The key to making this a habit is to be organized so you have time to dream. When you are overwhelmed with a busy schedule, you lose this opportunity. In this case, you take risks because you’re desperate and disorganized.

When Your Life Changes

Just add action

behaviors trump intentions
Does this inspire or overwhelm you?

Just add action.

Learn like you mean it, but at some point you have to put more time into action than learning.

Learning can be a great excuse-justifier.

Unless someone presses you to see this in yourself (like i did with myself years ago), you never will.

It’s a vicious cycle of wanting to learn just a little more before you take your big risk.

But alas, risks may not work and you may lose your reputation, you may look like a fool, or you may cause a serious setback for your organization (and/or yourself).

As a bonus, all action becomes a higher-level learning curriculum.

Only one way to find out

IPad Pro models 2019
What would happen if i got one of each?

As technology changes, so does the way we use it.

The iPad Pro is a compelling tool.

The 11” has a smaller keyboard, yet fits well in the small day-hike backpack.

The 12.9” doesn’t fit as well in the backpack, but has a more user-friendly keyboard.

i will also have to abandon a wireless mouse.

Radical change.

Will it make everything exceptionally better?

Should i get one of each size?

Only one way to find out.

Carving Out A Life

You know what?

caring
Note from an interaction i had earlier this week. The source escapes me. it says, “You can pretend to care, but you can’t pretend to show up.”

 

You know what?

Every once in a blue moon, my schedule is so crazy that i can’t write until after dinner.

You think flossing when you’re tired is challenging, it’s no match for two hours of writing when you’re tired.
