Join us in the Northern Colorado area for an unforgettable event!
Also, you won't want to miss the spectacular drone show liftoff at 5:30 PM.
Judgment ends influence; curiosity extends it.
How could you show up as a beginner today?

@SVVSD @ICSVVSD Agile Cybersecurity class — every high school in the district was represented, both in person and virtually, along with three out-of-district students! Incredible to see the opportunities available to students! @SVVSDsupt @joemcbreen

At the IC, students innovate and program robots to benefit the community. From socially assistive robots, competing in VEX Robotics, or an underwater robot aiding the environment, the Robotics Focus Area encourages creative problem-solving. Learn more: innovation.svvsd.org

The moment feels heavy. It usually isn’t.
Zoom out before you react.
Ever notice how some moments feel BIGGER than they REALLY are?
I came across a question that helps me, and wanted to share it with you:
“If you remembered this probably isn’t as serious as it feels, what might you do differently today?”
Perspective changes everything.
Most of the pressure we feel is self-created. Step back, breathe, and zoom out.
When we see things in context, we lead better, think clearly, and act with more grace.
Go be awesome today.

Number 2 in the "Stop Riding the Monkey" section is challenging for me and most people, I suppose:
Become a self-observer.
Step outside yourself.
Watch your behaviors from the corner of the ceiling.
leadershipfreak.blog/2025/10… Thanks, @Leadershipfreak

Have you heard the phrase "Rejection isn’t a verdict. It’s data. Use it."?
Every “no” tells us something IF we are willing to listen.
In that sense, rejection is not failure as much as feedback in disguise.
If every setback contains information, the question becomes whether we will treat it as judgment or as the lesson that gets us to the next level.
Make it a great day and stay awesome.
