What are you doing at Disney every day?

Disney Creativity Keynote speaker
Yesterday, November 27, 2016, and every day.

 

That feeling when someone asks what you’re doing and you say, “Writing seven Disney business books in one year.”

What are you doing every day bonus questions…

Who’s the most grateful person you know? Who’s your gratitude role model?

In a perfect world, your answer is, “You.”

Can you be a little more organized today?

Is it something to look forward to or something to fear?

Disney business author and speaker jeff noel
Writing for some is literally an uncontrollable passion.

 

Who thinks about death every day?

Is it something to look forward to or something to fear?

Both?

Neither?

There is no one way to approach death, but there is one thing for certain, we are in charge of how we view it – does it serves us with joyful gratitude or does it paralyze us with fear and uncertainty?

Does aging come with a balloon payment?

What price are we willing to pay now (taking the proverbial short cuts in life) that will require a balloon payment down the road?

When we bought our empty lot behind Magic Kingdom in 1990, most vacant-land mortgages came with a mandatory balloon payment; a pay-in-full requirement in three short years. This was designed to promote vacant land development.

The banking model assumed customers would be forced to convert their vacant-land mortgage into a home construction mortgage (a 15 to 30 year payback schedule) because they wouldn’t have cash to pay their loan in full in three short years. This would triple, or more, the banks mortgage volume. It triples under the assumption that a home at least twice as expensive as the land it’s build on is a safe bet.

The balloon payment was an enticing way for people to purchase the property of their dreams and then design a floor plan and pick a builder.

In life, however, taking the easy way out means skipping exercise, missing volunteer opportunities, neglecting a healthy sleep pattern, making pleasurable food choices instead of intelligent ones.

The balloon payment for those decisions doesn’t come due in three years.

That’s the bad news.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
