The Disney Difference newspaper article
Last week.

 

Walt Disney always believed his next great idea could from anyone, anywhere – even the third shift custodial workers.

My most recent idea only became obvious after a phone call from Hawai’i and a Facebook conversation from Indiana.

The current working term is “Community Program”.

Just like the Disney Institute program above, i’ve struck a hand-shake deal with an organizer who will offer the same type program for my company.

In hindsight, not sure why it took so long to dream up and make happen.

What’s today’s fire index?

A few days ago walking to an “interview”. The door caught my eye.

 

When we walk out our door into the busy world each morning, what’s on our mind that inspires us to no end?

Is it one thing all day long or a series of small things, constantly changing before our very eyes.

Is it the morning sun illuminating the flowering weeds next to the unmaintained street?

Is it the decision to slow the pace of life down and walk instead of drive?

Is it the decision to fly all day to meet someone versus just speaking on the phone?

The answer, it would seem, is always “Yes”.
