Over-manage the same things others don’t

Disney Customer Service Keynote Speaker — Disney’s Cinderella Castle. One face is red with rage and the other is green with envy.

Yesterday, my birthday, was really cool because it included a trip to the bank to deposit a paycheck.

Five midlife reasons to love Disneyland – one themed reason on each blog:

5. Living the lessons practiced by Walt Disney himself (hq)

Quality will out. – Walt Disney

Become the most admired company in the world. – Bob Iger

Live this way, first and foremost.

Teach this irrepressible focus and discipline to others.

The planning, packing, traveling, living – all this is done by over focusing on things other business travelers either under focus on or completely ignore.
