Get Out of the Car

\\xa0This episode has nothing to do with cleaning, but it may save your life. I'm going to share a story that happened to me recently while I was driving in between houses. Some of you will hear this story and just say, "Ken, that was dumb! I would never do that." Others will say, "Ken, I needed to hear that. Thank you." In the moment, I felt in the right. But for the rest of the night and week, I felt an unbelievable amount of gratitude. I could have been killed in broad daylight at a stop sign in a safe, suburban area and left my wife a widow at 40 and 5 kids fatherless. And for what? My ego!? I hope this story helps you to view the potential dangers other pose at all times. Don't provoke others to anger. Don't get puffed up that you are in the right. We have NO idea what is going on in other people's heads. It's not worth it. I have shared that safety is one of my 3 core values. Excellence, Ownership, and Safety. On this occasion, I failed miserably at my own core value and learned a tremendous lesson. I've heard it said that experience is learning from your own mistakes and wisdom is learning from others. Please gain wisdom from my mistake as a result of this podcast episode.\\xa0
I have continued to pray for that man. I have no idea why he was so filled with so much hatred. Maybe he lost his job or a loved one. Maybe he just had a bad day. Maybe he is a man with a short fuse that erupted in instant rage. Road rage is real. Avoid it. Avoid it. Life is already too short. Don't make it shorter.
In this episode, I shared some Road Rage statistics. Here's the link to the full article. Please drive safe!\\xa0
