An out of office message for you

Over the last ten weeks, I’ve stuck to a consistent publishing schedule with Life is NOYOKE recipes and video demonstrations.

I’m darn proud of this (despite other work-related missteps over this period of time).

As such, I’m going to the beach for a few days to celebrate and recharge.

Here are the 10 recipes (and vids!).

Here is the latest LINY email.

Here are the answers to any (hopefully!) Vitamix-related questions you may have.

See you next week.*

*Unless, of course, I happen to read your email and can’t help myself but reply before then.

The fun part

Is usually not the fruits of your labor. It’s the labor.

And if it’s not, you’re after the wrong fruit.

What a joke!

If your reaction is, “What a joke!”, you have two choices.

  1. Get upset at the absurd, complete, and utter failure to meet your expectations.
  2. Laugh.

Your call.

Lenny Gale thinking, is that a joke?

Too

Someone look super human to you?

They’re everywhere, doing all the things, making all the moves.

Well, surprise surprise. They’re just human.

You can do it, too.

They just helped you

Listen to people’s words about what you do.

If it doesn’t sound good to you, change what you do.

Small tweaks. Big changes.

OR, if you’re doing the right thing, be more clear about what you do.

If they’re confused or not excited or mistaken, embrace it. They just helped you.

Creatin’

Find a creative outlet.

Maybe it’s Instagram. Maybe it’s painting. Maybe it’s cooking. Or woodwork. Or photography. Or landscaping. Or gardening. Or writing. Or whatever.

Few good jobs leave room for much creation.

So do your job. But also do some creatin’.

And smile

At checkout. In your Lyft. At dinner.

Outside of your home, there’s a good chance someone’s watching.

A good reminder to be kind. And smile.
