Back To The Future – Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker

Mental Concert

Camping world stadium in Orlando — This is what Camping World Stadium looks like 40 minutes before show time. Last night.

Three bands last night: Cheap Trick, Journey, Def Leppard. Stadium seems empty with only 40 minutes until showtime.

Cheap Trick’s lead guitarist with a fun guitar. You see Journey’s drummer (with drumsticks in his hand) lending a helping hand to the guitarist. Great karma.

Our friends invited us to see Cheap Trick, Journey, and Def Leppard.

The concert was last night.

These are the same friends who invited us to see Tim McGraw.

Huge Tim McGraw fan so saying yes to Tim was exciting.

Last night’s three bands are all bands i like. Liking a band is different than loving a band.

So Cheap Trick was okay for me. Journey was good. Missed Steve Perry, yet his replacement sounds like him.

And then there’s Def Leppard….

Three Dog Night

beach at dawn — A rare sunrise ‘sun-shutout’.

Three Dog Night was a famous band when i was a newly-minted teenager.

Now, most people have never heard of them.

Funny how time and the constant influx of input (songs, artists, albums) drowns out the world’s (previous) greats.

Smile

University of Iowa mascot, and admin building — Sunrise run while still at Disney Institute (pre-2014). It’s a Magical time in every city or campus. Why? Solitude. Because few are out before/at sunrise. University of Iowa.

Pausing “quotes” today.

Why?

To return to a familiar place.

Writing one or two sentences at a time. Sentences that tell a short story or reveal a helpful insight.

Why?

A state change for starters.

Secondly, feeling nostalgic.

Finally, to see if i still recall how i traditionally write blog posts.

Write your eulogy

iPhone personal screen saver — This post publishes, along with this photo, six months after the fact. Writing this post minutes after Zelenskyy’s address/plea to US Congress. Note the CNN notification on phone screen.

What would President Zelenskyy write if he wrote his own eulogy today?

Tagline importance

mid life celebration book — The paradox of mid life crisis.

How you think drives how you act.

Some think boldly yet never launch.

We hear their boldness.

But we see their cowardice.

They have conflicting, competing thinking.

In the end, their constant internal, private narrative lets fear consistently win.

This used to be me.

How we thinketh drives how we acteth.

Tagline importance?

.think .differently

Todays thread is inspired by a recent business conversation with a fellow entrepreneur.
