Will there be a full-house? Will there be great story-telling? Will i/we be inspired?

People who habitually prepare make it look easy. People who habitually wing it also make it look easy.

Most people can’t tell the difference. Disney people can.

Many speeches cover exactly what you expect. Meeting expectations (customer/parent satisfaction) is dangerous.

Bad enough?

Apple Watch at a street crossing
Monorail overhead. Walkway to Magic Kingdom. Total miles to walk/run to Magic Kingdom and walk around inside MK (and back home) is easily 10 miles. Third time this week. Do the math and ponder the motivation.

How bad do you want it?

Dream boomerang

Do you remember one of the most exciting times of your youth? The anticipation of something that you knew would be mind-blowing, challenging, and spectacular?

Do those feelings ever return for an encore?

Awesome.

Have fun.

Happy present moment.

Perfect writing

Magic Kingdom
Didn’t come here to write. Now that i’m here, can’t help myself. Perfect.

What is perfect writing?

It’s whatever you decide.

Love the prep

Disney couple in the mountains
We can’t wait to return. An active lifestyle and frugal lifetime spending prepped us for what we do now.

Love the prep.

Love the preparation you’ve done to lead your life the way you have.

Surrender to the mistakes and missteps you’ve had.

And simultaneously celebrate what they taught you.

Bonus: celebrate surrendering.
