Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites - Geeking Out With Billy Joel
Does your 14-year-old self still live inside you?
In an interview, Billy Joel shared a story about having a picnic lunch with Paul McCartney, Jon Bon Jovi and Jimmy Fallon. That would be a pretty mind-blowing experience for most of us – can you think of a parallel in your life? Something that maybe you might have taken for granted and others would have loved to experience?
- Maybe you were a straight-A student.
- Maybe you networked your way into a fabulous career without ever having to interview.
- Maybe you found a $495 Brahmin bag with the tags still on it at a garage sale for $20.
Did you let the 14-year-old version of yourself geek out inside you or did you take it in stride and take the accomplishment for granted?
My favorite part of that Billy Joel interview was the point he was making by name-dropping his picnic companions – he acknowledged that 14-year-old version of himself, who would have been over-the-moon excited just to see all those stars in one place, and to be among them. As he enjoyed the lunch, he also enjoyed the awe of a life that let him have lunch with other luminaries.
