Bearded men really disagree with my take here.
Also, that’s not what happened.
He rolled over, and I said good morning. Then I said, “There’s stuff in your beard. And there’s beardriff on your shirt.”
Woke up this morning, rolled over, told my wife I loved her.
She looked lovingly into my eyes and said:
“I’m over the beard.”

If you think the problem you need to solve is that your employees spend too much time in the bathroom, you are solving the wrong problem. This is likely to decrease their level of engagement even further because you are giving them signs that you don’t trust them.

Today marks the first day I was able to do a 10 second handstand. Unfortunately, I didn’t get video, but I’m in my enthusiasm to recreate it, I did record this gem. This is attempt 2,311.

When I read this tweet, all I can think about is this scene from Overboard.
Tell the Democrat Governors that “Mutiny On The Bounty” was one of my all time favorite movies. A good old fashioned mutiny every now and then is an exciting and invigorating thing to watch, especially when the mutineers need so much from the Captain. Too easy!

I'd like to start a new tradition on October 2 each year, to stop something that's getting in the way of my own physical and mental well being. We start a lot of things in life, but we don't stop very many on purpose. Who's with me? What are you going to stop today?

This is attempt no. 1,025. You could say this is failure 1,025 and you would be right. But I’m not discouraged. Far from it. I know that if you want better results, you just need to ask better questions. That’s what’s going to get me across the finish line.

I have a new tool for handstands. The wall was too much of a crutch so we created a support that has give. Lesson learned: don’t just do the same thing you’ve been doing if you want different results. Iterate your approach to continue growing and improving.
