2020 T & me…

2020 vision with 20/20 clarity is clearly my focus.  I’m not getting off this one anytime soon.  Sorry.

I loved what Brownie clarified about 2o2o visions in his post, dream on.  Here’s my brief and personal “and”…

2020 visionaries with 20/20 clarity always remember that the point of the process is real simple and real hard.  The point of gaining clarity for designing your next decade is so you can do something about it.  The point is to productively ACT in the direction of your dreams.  Think of this as Happiness 101.

We call this process dream and do.  

My 2020 vision is mostly around my loved ones.  It’s not that I don’t have big dreams for BTL and for other people.  I do.  The greatest clarity, however, is around my most precious relationships.  My God, my bride, our children, and our extended family, friends, and clients.

In 2020, my son Taylor, will be 25.  My big dream for our relationship is to for he and I to be “best buddies” even then. This won’t happen without a ton of productive action between now and then.  It just won’t.  2020 vision with 20/20 clarity requires thousands of productive ACTIONS.  That is the recipe… 

I can’t control this dream either.  I can only design my half of the equation and leave the rest “in peace.”  I can only include him in my plans, I can’t force him to join.  I can only invite him to “race me up Mount Lemon,” I can’t make him want to do it.  I can only ask him questions, I can’t force him to speak.  I can only listen and give him my full attention.  I can’t make him stop giving me only part of his.  I can make him one of my top priorities and I can give him my love from a full heart.  I can’t make him love me back. 

This week, he and I have made some great memories together.  

I’m not sure he’s even noticed.  And, I’m ok with that…
