Who’s your attorney?

This is a scary high place. An innocent slip can cost you your life. Knowing the risks and studying what causes them and how to prevent them is pure common sense. We had a fascinating conversation about feeling too safe at home because the risks aren’t obvious with something as trivial like HOA liability.

Our conversation drifted away from HOA liability to our kids, life post-Disney, and a potential global WWIII. Later, as usually happens, thought more about insurance liability coverage and had an obvious first question, and then an immediate second question.

  1. Do they have a Real Estate/HOA attorney?
  2. What’s their HOA budget for legal fees?

Most small HOA’s would be defenseless against a personal injury attorney. Or any attorney for that matter.

Guessing that most HOAs are run by Property Management Companies and have an appropriately insured HOA.

Why?

So the Property Management Companies do not expose themselves to the liability of under-insuring an HOA client.

Career F&D

Morgan Wallen impressed me as an artist well before learning he is a star. What Musician cuts a double-studio album on their sophomore release? None. Ever. But Morgan did. Gutsy. Gutsy is art.

Career F&D.

Career focus and discipline.

This is how your art is honed and mastered.

Crazy is

How many Bead Jars have you seen on TED?

Crazy is as crazy does.

Crazy is in the eye of the beholder.

Having a vision of your future that’s not only better than now but much better than now – sounds crazy to many.

Having a vision of your future that’s never gonna be better than now and probably gonna get worse as you age – sounds crazy to me.

Crazy is like a shoe. If it fits, people wear it.

Always wear the best shoes you can afford even if you are barefoot.

Words, tone, body language

Presidential rhetoric is a contrast in style and personality. Biden vs Trump. Biden vs Putin.

Words, tone, body language.

Words are important, but typically only 7% of a message’s meaning.

How words are said (tone) and the manner (body language) in which they are said constitute 93% of what the receiver interprets.

Communication is overwhelmingly more than words.

Retiring from work makes sense

Perhaps it’s time to let the water run downstream, never to be seen again.

Retiring from work makes sense.

Spend decades earning a living and eventually retire to “enjoy life” before the final curtain closes. Makes perfect sense.

What about retiring from writing?
