What drives the speed of life?

Disney Customer Service Speaker
These giant wall art pieces used to hang in every Guest room (1052 total) at Disney’s Contemporary Resort. This one hangs in our garage. Bought it for $5.00,  30 years ago. Wow, time flies.

 

Our days fly by.

The seed of this speed is how we think about our mornings.

The fruit of this speed is how we spend our mornings.

Our seed’s DNA carries high intentionality or low intentionality.

And how we spend our mornings is driven by how we spend our nights.

For example, going to bed at 9:00 PM, getting eight hours sleep and excited to wake up to the reward of two hours of self-reflection, prayer, meditation, reading, writing, preparing breakfast, etc.

What drives our limitations?

fear
Fear is a habit. Our limits are a habit because of this.

 

Thoughts.

Decisions.

Actions.

The only limits we have are those we impose upon ourselves.

Bargaining with fear.

What are you afraid of?

What are you crazy about?

What are your hot buttons?

What brings you joy?

What makes you laugh?

What do you do to make progress?

What do you do that holds you back?

Imagine you’re having this conversation with yourself

Imagine you’re having this conversation with yourself…

Everything i do helps me simplify the way i think.

It helps me dedicate myself to the way i think.

That’s personal power.

The way i think drives the way my day goes.

It drives everything that happens today.

It drives tomorrow.

It drove yesterday.

It’s gonna drive every day next week.

And next month, guess what?

It’s gonna drive all 31 days in May.

What’s the point of having priorities?

High school Track practice
Yesterday, a sprint to the finish line. As a team. A clear goal. Give it your all.

 

What’s the point of having priorities?

Dear executive, if you wanted everyone to be focused on the key drivers for your organization’s success, how would you accomplish it?

How would your direct reports accomplish it?

How would their direct reports accomplish it?

How will your front line do it?

Why haven’t you been doing those things?

Why aren’t you doing those things now?

You do realize what this sounds like and looks like to an unbiased observer, right?
