The high-priced story came free with rock solid values

Orlando based Disney Keynote Speakers
From the front row.

 

A few days ago i had a three hour phone call from a long-time (former) Disney colleague. The most impactful moment was his reaction to me sharing that i was willing to walk away from a large contract.

What i’m saying is, he was incredibly inspired by this.

Turns out, there are still people left in the world who will make decisions using their values first and their pocket book second.

PS. i knew if i walked away, i would miss the revenue, but the purchase of a powerful story would have been priceless.

Turns outs, i got the story for free.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

This website is about our home health. To leave this site to read today’s post on my mental attitude website, click here.

Change yourself to change the world?

Change yourself to change the world?  

I went to the Apple store yesterday.   It intrigues me that Apple has forged a path, different then the status quo.

This challenges me to learn about Apple or not learn about Apple.   I have choosen to learn.

It dawned on me that the secret to success is having the right attitude.  And that the right attitude can be significantly influenced when there is a compelling reason.

Being a role model to my family is very compelling to me.   The moral – never stop learning.  Find a way to keep pushing your understanding, without sacrificing your core, your root values. 

Carpe diem, jeff noel  🙂
