And then there’s the paperwork of life

And then there’s the paperwork of life.

Went outside yesterday (a Saturday) to get some fresh air from a long work day. Yes, the weekends aren’t immune from work, even when you’re the boss and “control” how and when work gets done.

Our landscape maintenance crew’s mower broke down Tuesday at our house and they promised to return Friday. They didn’t make it Friday, nor yesterday. i walk outside and spent two hours pulling weeds.

As soon as you make decent progress

Twitter screenshot yesterday. i told most audiences, “At Disney, it’s chaos 24/7. The real Magic is that you’ll never believe me.”

As soon as you make decent progress to get caught up with the paperwork of life, a storm hits.

And then being decently disorganized becomes the daily challenge.

Busy as a beaver fixing their dam.

That’s us.

Metaphorically.

Figure it out.

Too busy, right?

The paperwork of life should create positive energy

From Twitter yesterday. Always have a pulse on Disney.

Always be fun to work with. Sent a CEO’s assistant a real-time photo of my current situation yesterday at 4pm.

Always carve out time to do nothing. Early evening waiting for “Aunt Cheryl” to come home from Disney.

 

The paperwork of life should create positive energy.

Of course, having an impossible vision is scary

Behind the scenes look.

 

Of course, having an impossible vision is scary.

That’s why so few CEOs can create organizational vibrancy.

Only preach what you practice

i also told the CEO, “i’m trying to get you and your organization totally independent of me, as soon as possible. i’m not like other advisors who might probably try to string this along to pad their invoice.”

He said, “To get an annuity.”

.think .differently

It’s what i practice.

This makes it easy to preach.

This website is about being decently organized.

Even with your thoughts and dreams.
