Until you have your own list, study a lot of lists

Disney Leadership Speakers
Wrote this on an airplane napkin while watching Moneyball in 2012.

Good list from a 2012 flight home from France.

Number three caught my eye. There’s a time and a place for everything. Staying late is when your learning curve is blasting off.

Once you’ve reached a certain level, you’ll need to figure out how much of your life you want to sacrifice to keep moving forward.

Turning 60 in a couple months, i can tell you that staying late no longer works for me. The other 11 are still massively important to me.

What’s your next impossible that you can’t wait to do?

Disney Leadership Speakers
Most photos i post, in any online format, come from my phone.

In yesterday’s jeffnoel.com post you saw a bunch of photos with Disney’s Pluto.

What opens up for me when i know someone’s favorite character is the opportunity to go the extra inch.

The extra inch is a Disney concept that i operationalized while speaking at Disney Institute. Most of my colleagues didn’t see the insane consultative power it yields.

Going the extra inch simply means doing just barely enough (but enough) to surprise and delight a Guest or colleague.

For example, in replying to an email from one of our Son’s teachers, i can include a photo (unexpected) of their favorite Disney Character.

The way i scale this to be able to do it with literally anyone i know (via email, text, Whatsapp, social media), is that i have a structure and process for creating, collecting, and retrieving Disney Character photos.

Dear Son, your growth in the past 30 days

mother and son
In Church a few days ago on Mother’s Day.

 

Dear Son, your growth in the past 30 days has risen above your average rate.

Biking round trip to school a couple nights ago to make up for a weather-related obstacle you had that morning.

Another day this week, you chose to ride home with a storm approaching, knowing you’d probably stop and have to wait it out. You trusted yourself to read the weather conditions and anticipate your shelter options.

You’ve been thinking hard about the pros and cons for your two Summer job options. One option is traditional, the other is not. Both come with great risks.

Note: The way i grew up and experienced Summer jobs is a limited view of how our Son should do it. There are dozens of other ways that less fortunate and more fortunate teens spent their Summers preparing for life.

Be openminded.

Use your vision of the future to help guide you now.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
