No one has ever planted a seed and held on.
You have to let it go.
Plant.
Let go.
Plant.
Let go.
This is the pattern that accelerates the serendipity of our lives.
As this serendipity accelerates, you then begin to swap your close-fisted expectations for open-handed anticipation of what just may start to flow your way.

Here’s a quick glance at some interesting things that came my way this week.
Ryan Holiday’s 50 (short) rules for a better life. This is gold and worth a daily glance.
Jim Collins interview @ The Tim Ferris Show. It’s long, but I’ve gone back multiple times this week to write down some notes. Grade your days and go back to look at the trends over time and you’ll find yourself experiencing better days.
I interviewed Dr. Leidy Klotz on his book Subtract: The Untapped Science of Less at Good / True / & Beautiful Podcast. Click here for the interview. Takeaway practice, consider – before +.
Lastly, I’m halfway through Will Guidara’s book, Unreasonable Hospitality. I plan to take the wisdom gained and cultivated at Eleven Madison Park and weave it into my life, relationships, and businesses.
Warren and Charlie offered their annual insights for five hours. For over fifty years, they’ve kept it simple and quiet with peanut brittle and coca-cola.
David Whyte’s poem, Everything is Waiting for You, fits perfectly in any season of life.
Angela Duck confirms that curiosity has a direct correlation with positive feelings in our lives and relationships.
“Simple, not easy.”
This is a great note and a reminder for everything you could ever want to be, ever want to do, or ever want to have.
Small road.
Narrow gate.
Few find it.
