Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker
One million+ people globally while at Disney Institute.
A Caveman app that would allow for carrying hot coals to the next location, for the next fire.
Having excellent personal responsibility is like hitting the lottery.
Fire protects (scares wild things away), enhances (warms on a cold night), unites (think campfire and cooking), and yet it also destroys (think forest fire).
And we complain about backed up traffic, or a slow Internet signal at 35,000 feet going 600 mph.
What the cavewoman wouldn’t have given to have easy transportation.

The truth hurts. The truth can also set us free.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever!”
Can’t you just hear people saying this, or thinking it? I say it too. We all do sometimes.
In fact, I’ve said this all my life.
“Yeah, yeah, whatever.”
Until a few years ago when things began to change.
One close friend describes me as, “A Transformed man.”
Just yesterday, at jeffnoel.org (spirit) I posted about the fog, the semi-conscious state many of us seem to go through life with. Some may call it auto-pilot.
As we are into the fourth day of the new year already, wanted to remind everyone that the goal from all this writing is:
These things have the ability to help transform anyone. At the moment, it’s working slowly, but powerfully.
Life Is Good if you can do one push up per day. Do that for a week. Then, the next week, do two push ups per day.
Continue to add one push up per day, for every week since you started.
Oh wait, I can already read your mind, “This is stupid”.
If I fail at anything, it’s almost always because I don’t stick with it.
Over a decade ago, I vowed to accept the challenge contained in this post. I thought, “How hard could it be. Seriously”?
Sticking with it has created a life-changing path for me. If you have any motivation in you, may I challenge you to read this – Hello World
Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
PS. I did this for two years – 104 pushups in one day. Now I do 40, two or three times per week.
Professional Speaker.
That’s what I do. I talk and people listen.
How scary is that?
Pretty scary. Everyone staring at you, expecting you to be smart and funny.
Because I’m hard-wired for excellence, I’m always looking for ways to become smarter and funnier.
You know, to become a better Professional Speaker.
I’ve taken to writing. Seriously.
Overachiever? Maybe.
Living with regret? Doubtful.
If you’re goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough.
Audacious. Yep! Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
Vince said, “Dude, you’re in incredible shape”.
Shirtless, I stopped by the front office after my training run early this morning, sweating profusely from the tropical Florida humidity. I wanted to check on something my wife was working on for next year.
The office manager and I were talking when Vince made his comment.
Vince knows the manager. In fact, Vince helps out at our Sanibel Island Resort and is an absolute bright ray of friendly sunshine, enthusiasm and hospitality.
“One push up a day”, I casually commented back.
“One push up a day”?, Vince relied, surprised.
“Yep”.
Vince knows I’m heading to Helsinki, Finland in three weeks to represent the United States at the Master’s World Championships. The manager does not, unless Vince tells him.
It’s amazing how we can look at someone and wonder what they do, or don’t do, to lead a healthy life.
Same thing with a person’s attitude, eh?
We can tell, just by a person’s demeanor, whether they have passion or not. Of course, there are some exceptions to this, but not many.
I hope I can stay passionate about four things: Mind, Body, Spirit, and Money.
Self-Control, Surrender, Service. Carpe diem, jeff noel 🙂
