Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker
One million+ people globally while at Disney Institute.
Black Friday 2019.
Today.
Means nothing to me.
Why?
Fundamentally, do not spend in order to save. Used to, for decades. Not any more.
Foundationally, when you eliminate unnecessary expenses, what is necessary becomes something you invest in whether or not it’s on sale.

Why companies fail to innovate: tradition. It generates friction.
Bob Iger (excerpt)
Bob’s quote is in response to his big gamble with Disney +
i consistently and continuously gamble. For example…
Going paperless.
Abandoning the computer mouse.
Wearing merino wool clothing – clothing worn for weeks before needing a wash.
Giving up keynote speech slides.
Using a speaker agent – agents add 25% to your fees.
Retiring from Disney to start my business.
Traveling without a laptop – only using a computer that fits in a pocket (iPhone).
An endless list of doing uncomfortable and or risky things.
Tradition is both timely and timeless.
There are things that should change (timely) and things that shouldn’t change (timeless).
The tactics (above) were changed.
The strategy (my unspoken value) to continuously improve will never change.
The random list of changes listed here are all endeavoring to allow me to become more organized – managing time and effort to simplify and excel at my priorities.

i’m raising the bar ridiculously high.
What do you mean?
i’m saying, and i’ve been saying this since 2001, balance is not a myth.
Anyone telling you balance isn’t possible is telling you this because they are accepting that it’s impossible.
Grant yourself permission to walk away from conventional thinking.

The 2018 creative endeavor is done.
The goal: do something i’ve never done before. No expectation from anyone to react to my new behavior. None. You can never try something new if you aren’t willing to live with the consequences.
It sheds light and illuminates life with richer clarity than before.
With:
i didn’t initiate.
For a year.
The big reveal?
This was ok.
Why?
No one noticed.
No Facebook inquiries, no texts, no emails, no phone calls.
Turns out, what i felt guilty about, i didn’t need to feel guilty about.
Such a delightful surprise.
If the phone doesn’t ring, it’s me.
i hear you loud and clear too.
Glad this is okay on both sides.
All that worrying for nothing.
Freedom.
Gratitude.
Update (today, March 2): it’s now been 14 months, not 12.

Leave room.
Breathing room.
Also known as margin.
Empty space.
On your calendar.
Make fewer promises.
Play more.
Aim for boredom once in awhile.
