The walking track near my house is a great Facebook Live spot!
I learned so many great life lessons when I was in Army and worked for the Government.
It was great setting involved in that part of civilisation, where as a young 20-year-old, I fashioned myself as James Bond (which was Pierce Brosnan in those days).
One key lesson you learn in the military, surveillance and investigations repeatedly is, “Take Advantage of Your Environment”. This is where you use your terrain or those around you to get the upper hand.
I did that this morning. I left my keys at home and went to the gym and had lots of trouble getting back in. My wonderful wife was about 10 minutes away, so I had two options:
- Get grumpy and blame myself
- Go for a short walk and do a great Facebook Live that will be seen hundreds of times
I picked the smarter more profitable option of course, went and did a really good Facebook Live that kicked butt.
My advice and thinking? Take advantage of what happens around you for the better or worse. It was annoying I got locked outside, but it made me do a great FB Live.
Love your work, thank you friends and take your keys with you!
