Happy Saturday.

Great to wake up in my own bed.

A new era is nearly here.

Days away.

Nervous.

Excited.

Disney map — Jungle Jeff’s favorite stairwell.

Commitment is the final Disney Leadership blueprint.

What does that mean?

It means making your 30th and final year at Disney (or anywhere) as amazing as your first, honeymoon-year.

Disney Institute Employee Engagement, home

red backpack in mountains — Cheryl in the background. Photo from late September 2021. This same backpack is with me in all three (consecutive) one-day Disney Institute classes this week. Note: The ‘ridge’ is the Continental Divide’s Eastern profile.

Someday, maybe, the 100-episode podcast called If Disney Ran Your Life might get released from the vault.

While still at Disney, i took everything i learned, did, and taught at Disney and Disney Institute and applied it to my life.

The transferable insight from this class is that you either have a life by design or a life by default.
