Las Vegas - that big adult Disneyland filled with too much smoke ;-)
Since I'm one to always look at the bright side, versus what I wish were there, here are a few of my take-aways:
People who visit Las Vegas come from everywhere around the world. Diversity is KING.
80% of them smoke, drink and gamble at least once while they are there. Cash is QUEEN.
Everyone is super friendly. Politeness is PARAMOUNT.
If you are the 20% that doesn't gamble you can still participate in one of America's all time favorite sports: SHOPPING.
There is great entertainment, clean and dirty. '-)
Everyone seems to LOVE it here, especially that 80%!
So what are they doing well?
1. Offering extraordinary customer service!
2. Charging for everything. $12 to use that in room hotel coffee machine.
3. Lots of opportunities to empty your pockets... gambling, shopping, food, drinking...more shopping followed by...
4. Easy access to all of the above and more than you ever wanted to know about.
5. Eye candy everywhere.
Great experience, Las Vegas!
Now, back my that 20% I love. If I could sum up in one image...

Drawing Your Dreams into Reality
If you aren't/weren't able to make my TEDxRainier talk I want to give you a taste of the idea worth spreading I'm sharing:
You can live the life you desire, but in order to achieve it, you must:
See it.
Believe it.
Act on it.
That means draw a picture of it...(download the template to help you)
Your Current State - where you are
Your Desired New Reality - where you want to be...one year from today.
Then, look at your picture, really soak it in, close your eyes, so your brain can restructure what it sees and mix it up with everything you have ever seen, heard, experienced or fantasized about.
Then ask, "What's the boldest three steps I can take to get from here to there?"
No matter how scary that first thing is that you get, write it down, because your brain will try to talk you out of it, but it is the right thing to do. (And you know it!)
Everyday...look at that picture, soak in that Desired New Reality, step into that life you already created, then do one small thing (of those bold steps) to make it happen.
Choose a symbol from the picture you drew, take a picture of it, and send it to me:
