Leaving a trail for our son – Page 18 – Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker

Speed limit mindset, home

Speed limit mindset at home?

How much is enough?

If Disney Ran Your Life…

Everything matters. Nothing is optional.

Have fun.

Set the bar to its highest level for everything.

Push boundaries.

~~Break~~ Redefine rules.

Don’t strive to have priorities, strive to have prioritized priorities.

Find a million ways to adapt to the way your desire and your weirdness projects itself.

At your peak, no one will even know you are weird. And they also won’t know how, even to this day, you are pushing the envelop on personal vibrancy.

Prioritized priorities are better than unprioritized priorities.

Mirror of my lifetime, home

What do i see in the mirror of my lifetime at home?

Casual.

Curious.

Shy.

Active.

Sports.

Cross-country, solo bicycle ride with only $75 cash and no tent.

Married.

Poor. But won a low-interest mortgage lottery for low income, first-time homebuyers (1985).

Health was almost always top priority – it’s the only thing i was really good at.

Then work at Walt Disney World became top priority.

Parenting looked hopeless.

Then a priority realignment.

Then teaching at Disney Institute, 1999 start (1999-2014).

Then parenthood, 2000.

Converted from (inactive) Lutheran to active Catholic, also 2000.

Then daily writing in 2009.

Then early retirement (2014) from Disney to start my own (risky, never-guaranteed) keynote speaking business (2014-2026) to have more control of my global travel schedule.

Empty-nester.

Personal vibrancy.

Sunset of life.

Repetition’s benefit

Repetition is the mother of all learning. -dad’s 9th-grade science teacher

Be careful with unintentional repetition because what we do by default becomes our standard. -dad

Habits are hard to break. -timeless saying

The good news about habits being hard to break is the reason intentional habits are the only goal. -dad
