Did you know?

This post is a placeholder post to explain an anomaly…

The anomaly was born from what 30-years at Disney taught me about over-focusing on the same things others under-focus on or ignore.

So, not only is there a daily post here, but i over-focus and write five differently-themed posts about balance on five different websites (anomaly) – my recipe for work-life balance.

What it would look like mentally with no photo or content

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

The cross i bear from a lifetime at Disney…

Two days ago we went in just to have lunch and then returned to our house.

 

The cross i bear from a lifetime at Disney…

Torn between zealot and acceptance.

Being driven to excel at thinking differently and doing things differently is a huge risk.

Why?

Because it causes discomfort for many.

Discomfort is generally not something people willingly line up for.

What is so weird about this though is this, people (including me) desperately want things to get better – at work and in their personal lives.

What is mind boggling, for me, is how resistant people actually are to what they so desperately want.

As my Disney speaking and advising business continues to grow, i find the same thing with many organizations.

Got a little fancier in 2011.

 

Today is the beginning of the eighth year. Top photo from 2008 and the original website look. Bottom photo about two years later, a little more color. The progress one can make when a little is done every single day.

There was a time when the number of consecutive days blogging was two. Today it’s 2,558.

Stop comparing (please)

Apple iPhone shipping box
Yesterday…opening an Apple shipment from China.

 

Stop comparing (please).

And stop trying to fit into the mold of what others tell you is the recipe for success.

i used to be a copy-cat wanna be.

Is that what i’m chasing?

What if i chased becoming a category of one?

Or is that only for other people?
