Musings at Altitude

I hit max load over the last 2 weeks.  I had meetings beginning at breakfast to late dinners, and whatever non-meeting hours I had before passing out at night, I spent those precious moments trying to ease the load of the next day before hitting it again usually only 5 hours after ending the day before. 

During those tensest of times, the emotions about business rapidly rotated between shear excitement, then great despair, then sighs of relief mixed with a few “you got to be kidding me” moments. 

Unfortunately (to some), I live for that roller coaster, and with every dip in the track, I’m leaning forward anxiously to see that next big climb to an over the top experience in business ecstasy.

I’ve had all of these emotions in the last two weeks…and it’s still coming!  And the highs have been incredibly high with spiritual moments at times.  And the lows have been desperately low with the anxiety that any of us would feel when things seem so wrong and the rightness is just out there on that business horizon but seemingly so far away.

I’ve had folks tell me they want stability, and sanity, and a sense of normalcy in order to feel good.  I can’t live that way!  I need the intensity of high peaks and very low valleys, and in those most intense moments, you truly understand yourself.

It’s been an awesome ride these last few weeks – top 10 in business roller coasters for me!

I’m anxious to see what’s next…not months or years from now…but minutes, hours, or just a few short days from now!

These are the rides you dream of!  These are the ones you’d even pay to ride!
