Backstage look at creating seemingly insignificant Disney plastic toy figure photos. The towel helped (a little) keep me dry.
It ain’t the Magic that makes it work, it’s the work that makes it Magic.
Little more context. See the top shelf characters as well as the lower left posse?
Is that the ocean? yes.
Backstage Disney retirement.
Front row seat.
As a participant in 2014.
And…
As the spouse of a participant on Valentine’s Day 2020.
So cool.
Hey curators (and god bless you for your skill set), this is what i mean by curator. You have no insider experience. An interview with a Disney legend, or executive is not the same as working with the legend or executive.
Not. The. Same.
Ever.
Riff is now completed.
Please watch your head and step as you exit the vehicle.
If you bump your head, please watch your language.
(Over and over and over)

After 22 practice episodes over Season 1 and Season 2, we officially launched If Disney Ran Your Life from up on the observation deck, 7,000 miles from home.
If Disney Ran Your Life name origin.
It was a truly desperate effort to reach outsiders – global Disney Institute business professionals – because nothing i tried seemed to work for the masses. No one else on the Disney Institute team had solved for this and, weirdly, i was traveling a lonely path to figure this out.
A flash of insane creativity and risk-taking.
What if i applied world-class, time-tested Disney business principles to my personal life?
The biggest application came to personal health. The year (1999) i joined Disney Institute, a wake-up call in the form of a danger-zone cholesterol report rattled me to the core.
Long story longer, i began running 100 meters (the distance between neighborhood mailboxes) daily for a week. Second week, 200 meters daily. Third week 300 meters.
Ten years later, i represented the United States at the 2009 Masters Track & Field World Championships in Finland in the 50-54 age group at 400 meters.
While the application was a world class change to my personal life, never felt comfortable sharing the story in the Disney Institute classroom or on stage at a speech.
As the years went by, the name – If Disney Ran Your Life – became a thing that i knew had potential, partially inspired by Fred Lee’s book, If Disney Ran Your Hospital: 9.5 things you’d do differently.
