Not enough

Disney University building
Ran here yesterday to shoot a couple client videos. No content, just social “guess where i just ran to” videos.

Not enough courage in your world?

Fix it.

How?

Find a million ways to figure it out.

The test? Is there a test?

Yes.

It’s called regret.

The test almost always comes without notice.

Most fail.

Don’t be a success at being world-class regretful.

Impossible and insignificant

female politician quote
Impossible and insignificant are two of our biggest obstacles to making a difference in our world. Catch the date i clipped the quote out of a newspaper?

Before we set our hearts too much upon any thing, let us examine how happy those are who already possess it.

August 1984, at a Washington State University apartment complex. We are waiting to be sag wagon drivers for a cross-state drive – and a cross-state lift for us to start our Honeymoon bike ride from Seattle back here to Pullman, Washington. Our honeymoon began 14 months after the wedding day.

Organizational Courage.

What is it?

It’s identical to personal courage and it starts at the top.

It has to start at the top.

It’s the founder’s story.

And after the founder is gone, the successor has to inspire the organization as if every day is day one.

If you can’t be on fire with this, you aren’t living your purpose, you are existing (probably decently well financially) for a paycheck.

Yes, obviously, this applies to work and home simultaneously.

Unofficial preceded official

Podcast officially launched January 25, 2020. Podcast unofficially launched same day in 2019.

Unofficial If Disney Ran Your Life podcast release January 25, 2019 proceeded official Podcast launch exactly one year later – nearly three weeks ago.

What’s cool is that Jody trusted me to proceed with the mantra, “This might not work”.

Please go recognize someone else

2019 Disney Cast Service Awards night at Disney’s Magic Kingdom Theme Park.

If you are not willing to be wrong you’ll never come up with anything original.

By wrong, don’t think of stupid errors like not adequately recognizing your direct reports, boss, peers, and vendors for their strengths.

By wrong, think in terms of business risks that free you to try things that may not work.

Like walking away from your biggest business deal ever, if you feel the business is blind to their biggest organizational vibrancy opportunity.
