I have no idea why anyone would want to know what my favorite–least favorite–and most annoying things are in my life, but for those of you who care, here they are:
Bill Caskey
Favorite Sport
Tennis. To play. Like to watch. Fave men’s player–Roger Federer. Fave women’s player–anyone who doesn’t scream when they strike the ball.
Favorite Food
Anything chocolate. Although I’m starting to like anything healthy–edamame (I’m sure I misspelled that).
Favorite Podcast
Well, other than ours, I like Managers’ Toolkit and anything by Tom Peters, John Jantsch, Paul Colligan and Seth Godin.
Favorite Bands
Well, country I like Brad Paisley. Have seen him a few times in concert. Like Rascal Flatts but not in concert. Rock band? Probably America (not really rock are they?); Moody Blues are good too. Voices are still pretty strong. (Isn’t it interesting how bands become your faves when you see them in concert?) Saw Michael Buble a few days ago a benefit show–he was actually quite good.
Favorite Football Official (Doesn’t everyone have one?)
Bryan Neale, of course.
Favorite Quotation (It’s a long one…so get ready)
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”
Most Annoying Human Trait(s)
- When people talk incessantly and say nothing meaningful
- When people talk incessantly and ask you nothing
- When people who are struggling in life do not reach out for ANY advice (guess if they did they wouldn’t be struggling, right?)
- Leaders who can’t lead
- People who tell me details far beyond my tolerance for them
- People who are there physically–but not mentally (Yes, that’s me quite often. That’s why it bugs me)
