We opted to save this leg of our hike for another time.

i over-focus on questions, paradox, and common sense.

Those three offer the opportunity to think differently, see differently, and do differently.

Different is often transformationally better.

Day 5 CCL, work

mountains
One of my favorite hikes.

Great leadership is how people survive.

Poor leadership is how people die.

Everyone knows this.

Extraordinary leadership is how people thrive.

As CEO of You, Inc, everything is your responsibility.

Rock on.

Day 4 CCL, work

mountains
Unaltered. Un-enhanced. Real life in real time. Just past Wild Goose Island. We stopped and looked where we had just come from.
Pixar social media post
Less than a week from now, we can watch this in our cabin. Or we can wait until we return home to Walt Disney World.

Personal leadership is doing what you want to do, when you want to do it.

Growth is mastering the habits.

Wisdom is discerning the most vibrant habits.

It ain’t rocket surgery.

You’re welcome.

Rock on!

Got to visit twice in 2024, but only one night each visit.

Over-focus on the same contribution you currently (and habitually) under-focus on or ignore.

How do you become an artist, a category of one?

Day 2 CCL, work

table top card game
Playing strategy-based (and some luck of the draw) card games is a rest day for the body. And a ‘work’ day for my mind.
intricate table cloth
Bilby (purple), and a stealthfully designed ‘love’ tablecloth.
hearts pattern on a table cloth
Changing what we see changes everything about what we think we see.

Hearts, hearts, hearts.
31-second video: One of my favorite questions, “What’s it like hiking in Glacier?”

Do what you love.

Commit to getting-to-do more than you have-to-do at work.

Evolve into a career you don’t need a vacation from.
