Quotes – Page 118 – Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker

By design or by default?

Disney speaker Jeff Noel in the mountains — Some days, the coldest days, i wear everything i own. The exception is the running shorts.

Establishing a morning routine is the same as not establishing a morning routine. The first routine is established by design, the second, by default.

Continuously invest

handful of laundry hanging from hangers — Every two weeks i do one small load of laundry in an actual washing machine.

Continuously invest. All the great returns in life, mentally, physically, spiritually, at work and at home, come from compound interest.

Think of your priorities this way

high mountain laundry line — Doing laundry at 6,600′. Swiftcurrent Fire Tower is (upper left speck) atop Swiftcurrent Mountain 8,200′.

Playing catch up places the focus on a past state and not on the present state. Catch-up work is for a day that no longer exists.

Be great and lousy

laundry line at high mountain chalet — Wore everything up to Granite Park Chalet. It was freezing. Hiking four miles and 2,400′ elevation gain was a sweaty trek. Air is what launders merino wool.

Habits happen by design and by default. By design is hard. By default is easy. Be great at hard work and lousy at easy work.

Regret proves this

Gaping Void art — In our Son’s dorm room. Starting out, working for money is important. At some point it should not be. Regret is never figuring this out.

Regret is our proof that common sense is elusive.
