Halloween Quote

Time management is a fallacy!

It's choice management. OK, so you know I love to quote myself and this is right out of my Whole Life Trilogy. Last time I checked we all had 24 hours so when you say "when I have more time..." or "when I make time...." it really is ludicrous. We makes choices on our time every day...you choose to get up an hour early and workout or you choose to sleep in. You choose to stay up an hour later and read a book or you choose to go straight to sleep. You choose to go to work on the weekend or you choose to stay home and play with your kids. We make choices everyday about how we spend our time, we don't manage it, we choose how we use it. Listen to the Cat's In The Cradle if you want a sobering reminder of what's important to balance your life.

Age is just a number!

I had the pleasure of speaking to one of the first CEO groups in WI, where it all started. The group has been together 36 years and average age in their 70 and 80's. Their fearless leader (and the owner of TEC-WI) is Harry Dennis (in the pink shirt which proves he's a very secure male:-) and one of the members, Jay Smith. Most are retired and instead of meeting monthly they now meet quarterly with spouses for a speaker and social event. I spoke to them with part 1 of my Whole Life Trilogy about a week after 9/11 and they came to Chicago this weekend and I presented part 2 and was invited to join them for dinner. They are absolutely delightful and full of joie de vivre!
