Where great ideas come from

Where do great ideas come from?

Anywhere, anytime, and from anyone.

However…

No great ideas starts out great.

So great ideas come from bad to mediocre ideas.

The crazy thoughts.

The impulsive thoughts.

The ridiculous dreams.

The what ifs.

The yes, ands.

Luck favors these people

Used Siri to dictate the above message walking home from gym yesterday. i don’t proof or edit Siri text messages to myself.

Here’s the original thought:

So the question everyone wants to know the answer to is:

“What does jeff noel know about life that we don’t already know?”

From that question, i can swap the word “life” with:

  • leadership
  • employee engagement
  • customer service
  • brand loyalty
  • creativity and innovation

This came to me while reflecting on the Disney Keynote Speech i gave four days ago. Also inspiring this train of thought is thinking about how to concisely position my new podcast, “If Disney Ran Your Life”

jeff noel Podcast ideas for first episodes: If Disney Ran Your Life

Disney Leadership Podcast
Marketing photo?

Note (updated today, Feb 12, 2019, as this goes live): Podcast released January 25, 2019, but quickly discovered the learning curve is steeper than imagined.

Because of this, i’ve decided to keep quiet about it until enough episodes are published to feel confident in inviting others to try it.

For now, think of what’s public as “private, insiders-only previews”. At Disney, this first of three launch stages is called “Cast Previews”. If you check it out,  you will be part of Cast Previews. It’s on iTunes and Stitcher. Search with my name or the podcast name.

Ok, back to what was written two months ago…

Q. Have you thought through what you want the first few episodes to be?

A. Will flush this out asap (hopefully tomorrow’s blog posts)….

(Note: today is yesterday’s tomorrow, so here goes…also note…this is the skeleton…elaboration may or may not happen in print here)

What a listener can expect – tough love. rethink, reprioritize, recommit: How Disney Changed my life.

Long-term listener value – transformational freedom and personal vibrancy.

Open to any and all feedback.

The problem is not the real problem

Quotes
Eight years ago.

 

 

The problem is not the real problem.

The problem isn’t having new ideas.

Humans are born to build their lives on new ideas.

It’s in our DNA.

Ideas build our foundation as we enter adulthood and carve out a life independent from our parents.

The challenge is terminating old ideas which were once new but are now old.

And because they’re old, let’s assume we’ve been incorporating these ideas into our daily lives long enough to have created the deeply embedded habits we call daily life.
