Great friends but not great business partners

Barnes and Noble kids area
One of the first meeting places with a business partner. We were both dreamers. Our partnership didn’t materialize. Our friendship remains solid.

 

Great friends but not great business partners.

It happens.

We tried.

Life’s a journey.

We both learned and profited from trying.

Status quo or transformation?

Safe or Risky?

Without the paradox, learning, and growth is mediocre at best.

What do you want from this life?

What do you want from this life?

Are you organized to make it happen?

Clock’s ticking.

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.”

Disney Dream Cruise reflections from Day 5

Each morning the deck was wet from cleaning. This is my path to hot water for breakfast.

Vacuuming the water happens daily.

Photo: Housekeeping staff vacuum in hallway each morning. Duck tape works like Magic. A real world illustration of what it takes to keep the Disney show going.

Vacate stateroom and be at breakfast by 8am. Luggage collected the night before.

 

Home made Thanksgiving dinner
Cheryl’s Thanksgiving dinner rivaled Disney’s.

 

No place like home and we got there 75 minutes after getting in our vehicle.

2016 Disney Dream Cruise Day 5 fond farewell

Disney Institute facilitators
Photo 2013. Final photo from the past few days. All blog posts were written during the Disney Cruise. Photos were preloaded before sailing due to extremely limited wifi onboard.

 

2016 Disney Dream Cruise Day 5 fond farewell.

As amazing as the three stage shows were, none of them received a standing ovation.

Why notice this? Why share this observation?

Simply this – it reminded me how challenging it is for someone to go first.

Fear.

Can almost guarantee if someone in the front would have taken the risk to stand, everyone else would have followed.

Will we remain as thankful today as we were yesterday?

Will we rush right back into our busy routine, only taking time for gratitude when it’s convenient?
