One Thing Series: Day: 752 Cock-a-Doodle Dooooo

Day 752: Cock-A-Doodle Doooo

Yesterday I explained how my uncircumcised friend stayed warm in the cold without a sleeping bag as ten random thoughts I had while watching Brady lose in the playoffs.

Speaking of random thoughts…

I’m concerned my wife and I are on different pages.

Example:

I fart…

She thinks OMG you disrespectful jerk.

While I feel like my fart says:

“Wow, you made some really great chilly”

In other news…

Bad decisions make great stories.

Anyhoo…

Your one PROFIT ACCELERATION THING today is:

‘The Voice’

Found this on FB from my good buddy Spike Humer.

So many lessons for a business coach below, it’s crazy.

The VOICE said ”Get Chickens”.

I said “That’s what the freezers are for.”

”Get Chickens”, repeated.

Oh chickens. Like chicken-chickens.

So chickens I got.

Here I thought with my big brain they would be to feed us. To nurture. I even put them in the yard to eat the pests in the garden.

They ate the pests.
Then they started eating the garden.
Then pooping e v e r y w h e r e.

Madness was coming upon me. Thus a chicken coop and run were built. No eggs though.

My frustration after months of chicken tending and a few sacrifices to the new puppies. A second set of chicks, more casualties and then a third set of six, we landed at 14 birds and one rooster.

Zero eggs. I got frustrated and called my friend Steve in Minnesota. As my chicken advisor he calmly eased my steam and gave me some additional education on curating my feed blend with moisture and fermenting to increase its nutritional biome.

I hung up the call.

I asked. “Great I AM, eggs?”.

“Go look.”

12:35 pm. I go look. 1 egg. Hope.
Magic. Miracle. Timing.

Frustration. Dispair. Ask a brother. Pray.
Answer.

I called Steve back. “You’re magic! I got my first egg.” We both laughed hard. Steve has become a very good friend over the past few years.

Now I’ll have eggs for us to eat, me thinks.

Next day. 7 eggs.

Weeks end 11-14 a day.

I gots eggs. But who really cares?

So my abundance of eggs floweth over and I learn they last for 3 months untouched and unrefrigerated. If it rains, chickens walk in poop and mud and they are filthy eggs. Wash those, wash the natural protection off… just use those first.

I freeze them in ice cube trays.
Pain in the ass.

So.

I start giving eggs away. I order crates on Amazon and little Swiss Flag stickers. We have one white bird that lays blue eggs, the rest go from beige to chocolate.

You visit us. You get eggs. 11 brown, 1 blue. We’re the Tiffany’s of eggs.

Neighbors get eggs. About once a month I get in the El Camino and drive around the area and deliver a dozen eggs to the folks that came to meet us when we moved behind the village gates. I use that car because it’s so loud I never have to knock, just deliver. Like a leprechaun.

Two types of people come when you move. The friends and the enemies. Super weird to me. You can instantly tell the difference in under five minutes.

There are breeds of folks that are compelled to come evaluate your existence and you can instantly tell the haters. They start by being over flattering and over sharing of their stature. They are critical of the other “bad neighbors”.

They essentially are letting you know there are two sides and you hopefully will submit to their established terms and be one of the good guys, under their leadership of course.

I smile. Take them all in. The great neighbors are always kind, quiet and generally have zero curiosity. They just want to say welcome friend.

So.

I thought a year ago I needed chickens and then eggs.

That was clearly not the case.

I needed relationships in my community.

Just as I was inspired with Intellihelp, I came to realize… food is community.

Eggs are connection.
Eggs are currency. Now more than ever.
Eggs are community.

When I was handing out eggs a year ago it was kind and cute.

Then the world changed around my eggs.

Today it represents real value and I have become the “Egg Guy”.

The GREAT I AM is looking down the road farther than you can imagine.

Noah was not a boat builder.
He was not handed a set of plans.
He was INSTRUCTED to build the most important boat in the history of the world… one plank… one beam… one notch… one peg at a time.

He wasn’t an animal trainer or zookeeper. He was a preacher. Yikes.
No wonder no one helped.

Today I have fed my potential enemies into friendship. Purely out of an abundance of eggs, I couldn’t think of what else to do with.

I used to eat eggs for 1.39 a dozen. Cheap eggs.

Now I distribute fancy dancy Swiss Consulate Organic Free Range eggs that are valued at $7 a dozen in the eyes of my neighbors and friends.

People wave at me when I’m walking in my exercise route like I’m Jim Carey living in The Truman Show.

You see.

There was a plan.

It was my plan. As in for me, not by me.

It was obedience and surrender.

It brought me to a place of acceptance, abundance and community.

The tithe of easily 60% of my eggs to directly benefit my friends and neighbors was HIS goal.

This is just a silly little thing that indeed has made my life better for having surrendered, listened, obeyed blindly.

It wasn’t about the chickens. It wasn’t about the eggs. It was about service, connection and, ultimately, love, care and grace.

Cock-a-doodle dooooo.

You heard it here first.

Now, pick up the phone and go help someone.
