Imagine it’s 2041.
Suddenly, you breathe in the aroma of a wood fired pizza.
Instantly, you recall a memory of a random Thursday in December…
It began with jumping in your Dad’s car.
Before you left the driveway, the Christmas music was on and together you began singing your favorite Christmas songs.
Smiling and laughing you and Dad made up funny words, and inserted friend’s names into the lyrics. You still sing those songs, with those same lyrics today 🤣
The first stop on your “secret mission Buzz Lightyear” was Dad’s shop.
He let you look at all the “broken cars”.
He carried you, Buzz Lightyear – Space Ranger into the shop to fist bump all the guys fixing those broken cars.
They let you hit them with your lasers.
Dad let you listen in while he had a conversation with a fellow business owner on how to grow each other’s business.
Then after all that was completed you ended your “secret mission”
But hold on…. the mission continued.
Your favorite pizza place on Wooster St. in New Haven was a surprise stop.
And despite the temptation of seeing and smelling the dozens of wood fired pizzas coming out of the oven….
You desired something else.
You locked in on it when you saw it going to another table.
A big streaming bowl of Italian Mac and Cheese.
Dad ordered it under a silly name…I think he called it Cacio é Pepe.
And now that superhero size bowl of pasta was yours….all yours.
It came out of the kitchen and to the table as advertised.
Cheesy, Steamy, Gooey…
You savored every bite, until you couldn’t eat another one..
You felt like a superhero.
And you were having lunch with your superhero.
You were in heaven.
Life was perfect.
Now here in 2041, Buzz Lightyear.
You smell pizza…
You and your Dad are back in that moment.
And for that moment… time has stopped.
This moment is priceless, and it’s yours.
To infinity and beyond.
I help business owners blend life and work to create the life of their dreams.
“Life of your dreams” sounds cheesy as that bowl of pasta.
However, if you’ve become a busy business owner with no time for the people you love the most, when 2041 comes, it will be painful knowing that you missed the best times of your life without even knowing it.
The dream, could become your nightmare.
You’d give all the money back just to have a fun day with your child.
Your 2041 child will rather have a memory of time with you than any material possession on this earth.
Your millions won’t matter because the money can’t replace the memories.
They want prescence not presents.
A billionaire once told me he “blew it” by not spending time with his family.
