rules – Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker

Trail etiquette

Gunsight Mountain, left. Edwards Mountain, right.

Trail etiquette:

Pack it in, pack it out
Always hydrate (drink a lot) before hitting trail
Carry more water than you think you’ll need
Ascending hikers have right of way
Step aside if a faster hiker(s) catches us
On flat trail with hikers approaching from the opposite direction, it’s always nice to be the first to step aside
Never approach wildlife
Please speak up if you want to stop for a moment (for any reason…water, photo, snack, delayer, add a layer, ask a question about something you see, etc)

The beauty of home creativity

The beauty of home creativity is no rules are required.

There are a million ways to live a home-life.

Your job is to find the very best way for you.

Run your home life as if Disney Ran Your Life.

Highest standards.

Everything matters.

Nothing is optional.

Nothing is prescriptive.

Continuously improve.

Reap what you sow.

Teach others who are willing students.

Just the photo please

Just the photo please.

Six tips (in above photo).

Gold.

Timeless.

Literally going against the proverbial current with everything i’m gonna say on Mike Simmons’ podcast in two hours.

What is mindset? Our habitual attitude.
What are common mistakes we make about mindset? Not being intentional about our sources/influences. Not being present nor motivated enough to improve. (Season 4 unpacks this)
Why do we make these mistakes? Entertained, distracted and medicated. Herd mentality – if everyone is this way, it must be ok.
How can we avoid these mistakes? Establish a clear, concise, and compelling goal that can only be achieved by dramatically raising your standards. A goal so compelling that trumps “Why am i doing all this hard work?” Because your attitude is worth defending.
How does this change in the context of remote work from home? It doesn’t. Period. Of course there’s change, but change is nothing new – it’s the constant fabric of life.
How does this change in Team context? Biggest addition is becoming a teacher not just through your example, but through intentional efforts to teach using VIP model.
How does this change in Customer context? Now is not the time to start fawning and communicating like crazy with your customers. The time to do that was everyday before Covid-19.
How does this change in Self context? Nothing changes, except this…you automatically gave yourself a grade for how prepared you are right now. You should be getting an A. If Disney Ran Your Life, operating below excellent levels would not be acceptable.

The future is exciting because i’m creating new rules

Business notes — The future is exciting because i’m creating new rules. This photo is from a year or so ago. Dusting it off for 2019.

The future (specifically 2019) is exciting because i’m creating new rules.

First, you are in charge of your own rules.
Second rule is to shun conventional thinking.
Third rule is to do stuff i’ve never done before.

Finally thought, a year from now you’ll wish you had started today.
