My last 7 years in corporate life I led a great team doing great things. People left us alone. We were in a great and growing bubble. When I retired corporate swooped in and burst the bubble. Fortunately I had helped several of my stars move to new areas to start bubbles anew. Enjoy it while it lasts.
That sounds like such a wonderful time. You were a kind of bubble shepherd! Managers who can create and keep the bubble intact are rare and invaluable. Thank you for this reminder.
I LOVE THE BUBBLE!! I wish it would come sooner than later but in the last 48 hours I've had six hours sleep because I STAYED IN THE BUBBLE!! So many thoughts bursting the bubble - in a GREAT way!! Thank you!!
Thank you so much for reading, Clark. And you're so right -- every time I write a newsletter, I do feel like I'm in a safe and cozy bubble! Wishing the very same for you.
"Bubble Life!" Poignant post! It takes disciple to stay in 'bubble' energy but the results are a serious celebration at the end!
You are so right about the discipline -- and the eventual celebration! Cheers to a bubblin' 2024.
Fantastic!
Thank you, Meg!
Yes!! It's so cool the way these things line up. Have a great week too!
This and a message from Steven Pressfield titled "leave the world outside" landed in my inbox today. Eerily similar and all the more resonant for it.
I'm a big fan of Steven's books, so am thrilled to know we are operating on the same wavelength right now. Hope you have a very good week!

I retired after 7 years in role. Great way to finish.
