How many books and articles have been written about Leadership over the course of time?

What are they all trying to say?

Thirty years at Disney taught me it comes down to one simple success formula:

Disney’s success comes from over-focusing on the same things others under-focus on or ignore.

Caution, without getting off the treadmill of life to pause and contemplate this, it will never motivate you enough to transform.

Imagine never being motivated enough to transform, even though you are staring at the transformational DNA required for putting a dent in the universe.

Serenity?

Yesterday morning. Peaceful. But only ten seconds prior…

We arrived just as the Lab arrived.

The goal in life is to act on the things we can change and to let go of what we can’t.

That simple, daily exercise is enough to cause great stress lasting a lifetime because so much of our decision making could go either way – and what if we decide wrongly?

Now add to that the stress from a world in turmoil from an invisible enemy, terror.

We see what we want to see.

The fine print?

It’s our personal responsibility to overcome this and not only that, but to thrive in spite of it all.

Last night’s Republican National Convention is sure to cause stress for many people today. For others it will offer hope. The laws of nature include opposites like light and darkness, good and evil, hot and cold, flood and draught. It is up to me to act on these scenarios.

Is there one simple secret to a positive attitude?

Look only for goodness and blessings and that’s what you’ll find. To deny this would be illustrating my point. #gratitude
