.do .differently

Disney Service speaker in mountains
STOP PRE is a battle cry Steve Prefontaine’s competitors made to intimidate him. Never worked. Steve was a rebel, who also happened to be a runner.

Creativity is worthless without action that changes something.

Same principle, thinking differently is worthless without action.

Business as usual is business in decline.

The antidote for decline?

Radical action.

Doesn’t have to be complicated.

In fact, it should not be complicated.

The antidote?

.do .differently

Life works thanks to habits

Walt Disney picking up trash
i have always taught outsiders that Cast members have one of two career habits: consistently pick up trash or consistently walk past it. Both habits are career-long habits.

Habits are primal.

Evolution invented habits to increase survival odds.

Behaviors that kept us alive got repeated.

Behaviors that fed us got repeated.

Behaviors that enabled reproduction got repeated.

How do your habits form now?

Work at any time, with any one

Work from home? Easy peasy.

Work from anywhere? Why not? What’s stopping anyone?

Work whenever you want and with whomever you want? Again, why not? What’s stopping anyone?

Free thinker?

Doubtful.

You’re almost guaranteed to be entrapped in a career prison.

Your only antidote is to .think differently

About everything.

You cannot be disorganized

VRBO Cabin. The first victory is won at home. Home, like Church, can and should be every step.

Name your priorities, in priority order.

When you can, your decisions are easier.

The fact that you can’t is feedback to you, from you. Be an exceptionally aware CEO of You, Inc and fix this immediately.

If not fixed immediately, it will never get fixed.

Why?

Because of the habits that got you here in the first place.

The easier it is to do, the more likely it becomes a habit.

Are you trustworthy at home?

Disney Institute Trainer and speaker Jeff Noel
Is it a superpower to have walking or bicycling to Walt Disney World be easier than driving?

In hindsight, i never truly trusted myself when i made habitual excuses for not being decently organized at home.

By organized, i mean organized with my priorities, decisions, and habits.

Never knew that priorities drive decisions, and decisions create habits.

The dramatic leap happened when i prioritized my priorities.
