Stories – Disney Creativity and Innovation Keynote Speaker

Everyday stories

adult humor gag gift — From the same Sanibel Island gift shop…different day and year – insanely random. The context here is that you never have to talk about your “workouts”. Your strength, flexibility, endurance, smile…they all kinda snitch on you about your workouts.

Tell a great story today, no words.

Slaughterhouse five is on my ‘to read’ list

Kurt Vonnegut — Stumbled upon Kurt yesterday and am seriously intrigued. **This 4:36 video** led to me starting to watch the one above.

Writing and speaking are similar. In both cases, it’s nice to have an interested audience.

Having an interested audience buy a book or a ticket is one thing. Having them definitely recommend and definitely repurchase is entirely another.

Of course i’ve heard of Kurt Vonnegut. Have i ever read anything he’s written?

No.

That’s about to change.

For Brevity, Does This Top Hemingway’s Six-Word Story?

If you're going to drive a car, why not add some style to it? (ps. owner unknown)

Dear Son, I’m upping the ante on Hemingway’s shortest “Baby Shoes” story with: He lived, before he died.

For Sale. Baby Shoes. Never Worn.

There is a claim Hemingway wrote a six-word story to win a bet amongst fellow writers. I say who cares the origin, the story is brilliant.

What Would You Do?

If you knew you could not fail, what would you do differently? Know what I’ve learned in 50 years? All these quotes, cliches, sayings, parables, etc. – they only work if you do.

“No rules for success will work if you don’t”.

“Everything takes longer than we think it will, or longer than we want it to”.

“If your goal isn’t impossible, you’re not reaching high enough”.

Quote me. Love me. Hate me. It doesn’t matter. What matters is what you do. Got it?

For anyone thinking it’s more sophisticated than this, it ain’t. Carpe diem!
