Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker
One million+ people globally while at Disney Institute.
Yes, I’m writing today’s fifth blog sitting here in Disney’s Cinderella Castle.
Or, this may all be some strange dream or fantasy.
Did I hit the Florida Lottery?
Social Media, Apple, passion and just plain old fashioned hard work have placed me here in this dream state.
What an awesome way to start summer vacation, whether it’s real or not.
Congratulations to Donna. She correctly answered yesterday’s “trivial tradition” question. Donna won a free prize.
Traditions are a critical success factor for a great corporate culture. And the same principals translate easily into our personal lives.
As a corporate professional speaker, for a fortune 100 company, I know well the secrets of being world class.
In fact, I applied my company’s strategies and tactics to running, of all things, just to prove to myself and especially others that the concepts I teach everyday can be applied anywhere, to anyone.
Can’t put our finger on things sometimes, can we? Stuff happens. Some good. Some not so good. Why? Who knows.
This particular Saturday (today) has been very productive, personally and professionally. Why? Who knows.
It’s funny how our physical health has nice ripples to the other dimensions in Life’s Big Choices. I’m leaning that way.
My running has been getting better, and foot pain has been getting less. I know, who cares? Guess I could say the same thing about Seth Godin’s recent post, “The Wrapper Matters“.
Being busy is really just a part of life. People have always been busy. Yet, we live like ours is the first generation to face such challenges.
Listen carefully when older people talk. Pay attention to history. You’ll discover times have always been tough, and always very busy.
When we accept this as never going away, we can begin to live. But not until then. Once we accept it, we can work real hard to figure out how to survive well, and to live well. It doesn’t require much.
Find it challenging to get motivated?
Or maybe getting motivated isn’t the challenge for you, is it the staying motivated part that challenges you?
And then there are always people who can get and stay motivated, but not for the long haul. And by the way, the long way is the shortcut.
You must be able to kick your own butt.
If you don’t have the guts, passion, determination, or any other ingredient you need, to kick your own butt, your big dreams will remain elusive.
These five daily blogs are the foundation of a community, of a movement. And as this “community” grows, we will all find creative ways to increasingly be here for each other. You good with that?
