Everywhere we look and even where we don’t look

Hundreds of photos in the past 48 hours. A few from yesterday. Some Disney images will be easy to see, some will not, like in the second photo, an iconic letter.

Spend 30 years as a Disney insider and there isn’t much you don’t know about Disney. And your appreciation for what it takes to create Magic is literally unrivaled.

And yet.

And yet your appreciation for what it takes never dulls nor fades. Like the past few days at every turn. In fact, what’s remarkable is that your appreciation becomes greater because you have a new lens.

The lens of a profitable (for the very first time in seven years) entrepreneur.

Dear Steve, thank you for saying this

Steve Jobs would have been 60 yesterday, February 24, 2015….

Dear Steve, thank you for saying this:

“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.”

So yeah, retired from Disney to raise money to give to the good people searching for a cure for Crohn’s. A great speaker with an amazing platform can make a lot of money.

Kinda like a for-profit, non-profit.

Crazy.

In a small way, next time you’re on Amazon consider typing “jeff noel”… there you can read the first few pages for free and if it intrigues you, and you buy the book, you’ll be helping. Plus, decent chance the one-hour read might contain enough crazy ideas to change you. Forever.

Crazy.

Today is not a good day to put your dreams on hold.

Is it worth it?

Florida Hospital Winter Garden
Florida Hospital Winter Garden set to open late 2015.

 

Is it worth it to push ourselves through the overwhelmingly invisible fear?

The ever present fear that we have learned to live with.

The fear that protects us from embarrassment and disappointment.

Seriously, is it worth it?

One of the outcomes from pushing through fear is that your courage and vision become much clearer to others. And your phone starts to ring.
