It’s the hard work that makes it Magic

Goofy baseball cap selling locations
The Emporium was out of the Goofy Baseball cap i wanted. It’s a great prop for a Disney business insight i’ll be sharing tomorrow in Miami. Photo: locations it might be in stock. None of the Magic Kingdom locations had it.

It’s the hard work that makes it Magic.

We tried first at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. No luck.

Then we tried Disney’s Contemporary Resort. Also shut out.

So we walked across to Disney’s Magic Kingdom. Main Street Emporium, Fantasyland, Frontierland, and Tomorrowland – no luck.

The solution?

Purchased two alternative Goofy hats.

It’s not the Magic that makes it work, it’s the hard work that makes it Magic.

Disney Institute Facilitiators
One of my final Disney Institute engagements during October 2014 was with Mark Matheis (Disney history expert) and Chevrolet. Photo; Taken while we waited for our class to return from a self-guided business tour of Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

 

The past few weeks i’ve been working on 2019 engagements and a couple for this Fall.

This post was inspired by me reflecting on the body of work i did at Disney Institute:

  • spoke to over one-million people
  • engaged with 2,000 different organizations
  • received distinctive Disney recognition
  • quietly pioneered compelling questions
  • tenaciously pursued and exploited undiscovered paradoxes
  • created game-changing, simple, key, repeatable message points

Driven like Walt.

How can you not be driven like Walt and still call yourself a Disney Cast Member.

She said he’s the classroom sage

Windermere Prep HS courtyard
Yesterday, waiting for a teacher-parent conference appointment at 3pm.

 

She said he’s the classroom sage.

Met with the English teacher to discuss our Son’s progress.

Not academically.

Everything but that.

Socially.

Relationships.

Confidence.

Stuff like that.

She also said, “When Chapin speaks, people listen.”

Good karma (reprise).
