Five “justs”

Disney customer service keynote speaker
Stumbled on this Disney Keynote photo. Clearing (deleting) texts yesterday and stumbled on three photos i didn’t know i had. The conference photographer texted them soon after the event. This is the first one.

Five ‘justs’:

  1. Just lead
  2. Just engage
  3. Just serve
  4. Just love
  5. Just improve

Mental progress

Walt Disney with Mickey Mouse dolls
Amy and Alonzo from Disney University asked if i saw what was unusual about this photo. Have seen this photo hundreds of times and never noticed anything unusual. But as i kept looking, i spotted the second Mickey Mouse from the bottom right. Freaked me out for a few seconds.
18-second video: Grateful for not accidentally stepping on this magnificent creature. Chapin noticed it as we walked.

The longer you shed something, the harder it gets to continue shedding.

Why?

Because the easy-to-shed stuff has been gone for a long time. Plus, with each cycle of shedding, the things you kept are kept because they appear at that moment to be valuable.

So it’s a phenomenon of having fewer things with each perceived to contain high value to you.

Value categories include: memories, future use, future gift, future sale, guilt, etc.

Making reinvigorated mental progress in shedding old, outdated and inefficient ideas and beliefs.

Feels amazing.

Ps. It always does.

Wow!
