TED Talk – Go The Extra Inch

TEDx AUK speech went live yesterday. Surreal.

TED Talk – Why Going The Extra Mile Is A Flawed Concept – And What To Do Instead.

Incredible opportunity to share a remarkable concept with the world.

Go The Extra Inch.

Going the extra inch focuses on initiating small, seemingly insignificant gestures. Actions that every person can do all day, every day, day after day, in service to others.

Independence and independent

Yesterday was a great and creative workday. Most days are.

Independence and independent.

A positive attitude energizes your independence.

A negative attitude engages your dependence.

Pick one:

  1. Dependent
  2. Independent

One is adult and one is child.

You are free to thrive as an adult.

It is tempting and easier to not accept adult responsibility and live in a “what if I fail” fear of taking personal responsibility for every part of your life.

Some make the choice to be captives to dependence.

Great Podcast at former Disney Institute

Jody Maberry’s head is visible lower left. Our event photographer, and me. We recorded sitting on the sidewalk outside the former Disney Institute main studio.

Great Podcast at the former Disney Institute yesterday with Jody Maberry.

Loved every minute of it.

It flew by and we went two minutes over our 15-minute goal.

It’s great to be back at it.

When it’s a big day

Preparation is hard work, competition is the festival – the easy part.

When it’s a big day it makes perfect sense to be prepared.

Today is a big day to record a few If Disney Ran Your Life podcast episodes.

Jody Maberry is staying with us and we are recording at Walt Disney World.

As it sometimes/rarely happens, i am not prepared as of 6:40 AM.

What if you tried this?

Orlando road construction yesterday morning. We saw a special Disney Institute colleague. He’s receiving hospice support.

This morning i tried something the instant i awoke.

Slide out of bed to place knees on the floor, and with hands folded, said the three morning prayers.

What’s different about this morning is that i didn’t walk over to our Son’s room to do this at the foot of his bed.

This ritual in our Son’s room has been practiced for nearly 19 years, and today marks the start of the transition while our Son still lives at home.

Perhaps doing it this way for six more weeks will help transition to becoming an empty nester.
