Time away is good time
Luke Wendtlet is on vacation in Palm Springs with his family. Good morning to those east and west coasters on Cadre. There's the mountain, which he may not be able to get up to. But yeah, it's going to be a great time with my family.
When I go off on vacation, when I try to reclaim, rejuvenate, re inspire, reinvigorate, what am I going to do? Here are my five goals. Run 5 miles, one hike a day, one nap.
Beth. Colleen. Wonder again. Have a wonderful, wonderful week. Like I said, just be good to the world. We all need it. All right, peace everybody. Bye bye now.
Good morning, Cadre family. It's Luke Wendtlet here from beautiful Palm Springs. My wife and I and the family are on a little vacation, some much needed r and R. So good morning to those east coasters on Cadre here. It's always good to see you on. Good morning to our central time zone, folks. We love you. Good morning to our mountain peeps. And how about those west coasters, Pacific time? m. It's always good to see you guys. It's the best part of my week is going live. Just checking in with you all again from beautiful Palm Springs here.
There's the mountain, which I don't know if I'm going to be able to try to get up to that bad boy, but it'll be, be a wonderful stretch, good stretch with the family. Good morning, brother. What's up, mister Hugo? But yeah, it's going to be a great time with my family. But when I go off on vacation, when I try to reclaim, rejuvenate, re inspire, reinvigorate, what am I going to do? So I'm going to give you five goals that I have. I always set goals. I always set myself up with some goals before I go, what's up, nicki molay, she said, have a great trip.
We will. But I always try to set up five goals on any trip. And I know people are like, well, that kind of defeats the purpose of a trip, but actually it becomes very intentional. So here are my five goals. Ready for it? So the first goal of my trip is going to be that, right when I am done with this live stream, I go 72 hours. Hours completely tech free. So that's number one. Okay. So that's the first thing I'm gonna take my technology, I'll shut it down. I'll go 72 hours without. So it's just completely being bedded in my family, watching every single thing that my wife does, my kids do, and just kind of like, like living in the moment, like, be where your feet are.
Right. So that's number one. Excuse me. So 72 hours tech free. Number two, I will run 5 miles a day. Right. So number two, I will run 5 miles a day. I love running. For me, it's. I always tell everybody, it's not about the exercise. It's my think tank time. It's my meditation moment. I love it. I love just kind of like taking this all in, the beauty that is our world. So anytime I go out, yes, you get the other things from it as well. But for me, it's always my think tank time. Number three, we are going to go on one hike a day.
My family's going to go on one hike a day. I mean, when you have the beauty that is Palm Springs and you have the opportunity to go and walk and hike, we got to take it in. All right, you ready for this one? Are you ready for this one? One nap. I'm going to try to take a nap a day. Could be five minutes, could be ten minutes, could be 15 minutes. Right? My next one. Okay, so I love a good nap. My next one is going to be to read two books. So I got two books. I got the Robert Downey junior book, and then I got a business book that I can't wait to read.
It's actually business and life. It's with Peter Adia, my second favorite place in the United States. Yes, that's right. Palm Springs, baby. We love it here. It's probably one of my first favorite places in the world, to be frank, even more so than Minnesota. But naps rule. All right, so I see. So let's break it down again. I have 72 hours tech free. I have the two books that I brought down. I have my five mile run. I have a hike a day, and I have a nap. So between a little bit of exercise, a hike with the kids, reading out of my books, which I love to do, getting that awesome hike in, taking a rest, going tech free, I believe is going to actually become and have me become, when I come back, rejuvenated, a better leader, more patient ways in which I can.
Oh, there he. There he goes. He's got a mister Hugo. Tech free 72 hours. Run 5 miles, one hike a day, one nap. I may be an overachiever here. Books. Two of them. That's right, baby. So, yes, I am going to land on my goals. You don't set up those targets to not go after them. So my goal is to ultimately try to. To reach my goals on vacation, which is becoming very intentional, like everything I do in my life. I'm 42 years old. I have to live with intent. I have to be intentional with my time, my money, what I'm doing, how I'm doing it, why I'm doing it.
And so I want to be so present with my family and take this time in and become, when I come back, to be a better leader, a better teammate, a better colleague. So I'm going to go all in on this vacation and do just that. And I hope you all have the best week. I hope you all have the best week. Whether it's east coast, west coast, anywhere in between our Cadre, fear is growing. It is amazing. I love being here with you all. Like I said, this is the highlight of my day. But I am signing off and I will see you all next week.
I am going to enjoy this time with my family. Be here with them, see them, love them up, all the things. So I love you guys very much. Do right by one another. Be good to one another. Lift each other up. Lift up the world. The world needs it more than you'll ever know. Okay. Always good to see you speak wonder. Joe Padjoy. Beth. Beth Zobitz. Mister Hugo. Colleen. Nikki speaker. Wonder again. I always just, I always love seeing you guys. Have a wonderful, wonderful week. Like I said, just be good to the world.
We all need it. All right, peace everybody. Bye bye now.
