February 2018 – Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker

Google Happy New Day and what happens?

jeff noel Disney speakers — Love that my Disney Institute colleagues, who know my business, have adopted .think .differently to help them market their message. In this case, they’ve heard it over and over.

Google Happy New Day and what happens?

You discover the phrase you coined has been coined already.

But how does that work if you’ve never heard or seen the phrase before, does it exist?

Happy New Day.

Go.

PS. One of my favorite Disney Institute phrases is D’Think.

Happy New Day

Ordering HomePods — Upper right corner. Awoke at 2:55am to buy at 3:01am (12:01am Cupertino time). Tried unsuccessfully for 20 minutes.

Happy New Day.

Can you hear yourself saying this?

i shoulda.

i coulda.

i woulda.

i’m a simple person.

(ps. you’re still talking to yourself…)

i work hard.

i sacrifice.

My goals are pretty lofty.

A fair amount of my family, friends, and colleagues don’t get why i work so hard.

The goal?

To win.

Win what?

Victory over my old self.

Metamorphisis.

To journey through life, preparing for the next leg.

To do what you need to do today so your tomorrows are better.

We thrive or we survive.

Life is fair in that it is unfair to everyone.

Celebrate.

Go.

What you get if you’re willing to push yourself

Apple Watch photo — Spent 3 hours here yesterday – replaced iPhone X screen that cracked from a bike ride drop. Who’s got time to push personal boundaries?

My local ‘go-to’ Apple Store Mall at Millenia. Tons of tourists.

Bumper sticker calm — Calmer than you are? At a stoplight. Yesterday, driving home from Apple Store.

What you get if you’re willing to push yourself:

Pushback (many people won’t like your ambition – it reminds them how little they have)
Discovery (you go places you’ve never been)
Opportunity (karma attracts good things and ‘lucky’ breaks)
Pain (you will fail, so know it’s coming and make it temporary)

My word for 2018?

Go!

Courage is contagious, yet some are immune

Disney Keynote Speakers — Retired from Disney, but not from working.

Disney Customer Service Speakers — This was a piece of trash i picked up at Magic Kingdom a couple days ago. Courage and Magic travel together.

Facebook algorithms auto-populate “memories” from updates – “on this day xx years ago” – here’s yesterday’s:

Courage is contagious. Jealous, negative people can’t catch it, but passionate, ordinary people can. We all get 24 hours. We all have the weight of the world on our shoulders. Put up or shut up. No?

Courage.

But some people resist courage.

i know i did for far too long.

Something incredible happened during the 2008-09 economic tsunami.

Prompted by Disney layoffs that didn’t have a logical or predictable formula, i found myself compelled to .think .differently

The doctor says my time on Earth is limited

inspiring messages — The messenger today is a cardboard tissue box.

The doctor says my time on Earth is limited.

Truth be told, so is yours.

We don’t need a doctor to tell us.

We should be telling ourselves this.

But.

But it’s scary news.

Sure.

But.

But it’s not untrue.

Use this reality to inspire you to live like you mean it.

That’s what i’ve been doing for the past 8.5 years.

Go.
