Show and tell?

Disney keynote speaker Jeff Noel on stage with two audience members
You can talk the insight or you can show them the insight. Here i am showing the 400-person audience the insight about ‘displaying appropriate body language’. Invited two audience volunteers onstage to help.

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?

Asking the wrong question

Walt Disney quote
Walt saw the future so vividly that after he died his team knew where Walt wanted to go.

Dear CEO, your biggest blindspot….

In thinking more about it, totally confounded why you can’t (won’t?) answer the singularly most important question, “What is your vision?

Could it be the wrong question for you?

No, not in a million years.

Note: Spent 30 years deconstructing and then reconstructing Disney’s world-class, time-tested Organizational Vibrancy DNA, into brilliantly simple and easily transferable insights.

The first, and most important, of the 19 architectural blueprints is Vision.

Be and do this

Disney Business Book writer
GNP. Lake McDonald. The Garden Wall, as it’s called, is the center horizon. Glaciers carved both sides, so it resembles a wall (in the garden called Glacier National Park).

Be inspired and be inspiring.

The power of education

Apple calculator screen shot
Recently was asked how many words i’ve written while prolifically blogging for 11 consecutive years. At a conservative estimate of 100 words per post, over 2-million words.

Want to feel strong?

Try the power of education.

What?

Educate yourself.

If necessary, take classes.

Otherwise, observe, listen, read, teach, dream, and, write like you mean it.

Tend to your personal vibrancy.

Your mind is one-fifth of the balance equation.

Educate yourself in a balanced way.

And never take your confidence, gratitude, and servitude for granted.

To be confident and grateful, yet not serve others by teaching them through your example – this is true slavery.
