How do you scale a great attitude for an entire lifetime?

How do you scale a great attitude for an entire lifetime?

Find a million ways to stay motivated.

Live as if every day is a new day (because it is).

Live in deep gratitude every moment of every new day.

Live as if every day could be your last (because it could).

Glacier National Park trip four, attitude

Big Horn Ram Logan Pass
Best time to see wildlife is early and late in the day.

 

Glacier National Park trip four, attitude.

Everything i had envisioned for this nine-day trip revolved around easy access to everything and warm, sunny weather.

The Westside is shut down from Apgar to Logan Pass.

The weather for the entire week is significantly below normal.

The good news?

My (grateful and enthusiastic) attitude about the whole thing.

Attitude travels everywhere you do, like a shadow

Leaving in five days for nine-day Glacier National Park trip.

Going-to-the-Sun Road has been closed on the westside for over a week and may remain closed for the season.

The attitude we travel with is the attitude that will make our travel extraordinary or a disaster.

PS. It’s the same (not a different) attitude that we travel with daily.

Never being satisfied is great motivation to improve

Disney Customer Service Speaker
It’s not the Magic that makes it work, it’s the work that makes it Magic.

 

Never being satisfied is great motivation to improve.

We are never satisfied at Disney.

The night we opened Pandora-The World of Avatar at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Cast Members in every business unit debriefed what went better than expected, what went the way we planned, and what went not as good as we planned.

Why?

Because in 12 hours when we open for the second day, we want to immediately test for solutions.

As the second day unfolds, we’ll be monitoring if our tweaks make it better, produce no change, or make things worse.

At the end of day two, we debrief again.

This literally never ends.

Insight: Having this world-class level of expectation can insidiously put a drag on completing seven Disney Business books.

Access granted

Knowing that i’ll be in Glacier National Park in a few days is surreal.

Why?

Because a few days ago we were on a Disney Cruise – unplanned and booked on short notice. Thank you Mickey Mouse for the Cast Member discounted rate.

Will this be my final Summer?

Will it be yours?

No one knows except for the most seriously (terminally) ill among us.

The simple 2009 act of creating a 10-year life plan has allowed a decision-making process and a surrendering process that i would never have been able to access.
