i’m going to Walt Disney World

Lake McDonald VRBO home
Not Walt Disney World, but it works just as well for me.

 

After a famous athlete does something remarkable (like win the Super Bowl) you can picture the marketing soundbite, “I’m going to Walt Disney World.”

While i still travel for work, it’s at such a reduced level compared to Disney Institute.

It’s manageable and not overbearing.

Writing today’s posts from San Antonio airport.

Hours from now i’ll be back at Walt Disney World.

“i’m going to Walt Disney World!”

Can you text me one thing each morning?

jeff noel quote
This came to me two days ago. Wisdom is action (and sometimes intentional inaction). Common sense without action is not common sense.

 

Can you text me one thing each morning in addition to your blood pressure readings?

One thing you are grateful for as you take your blood pressure.

Do you know why i ask?

Because i know you can do it.

And because i believe it will help you.

The fact that someone is asking you to do this for yourself is something to be grateful for.

And the fact i am alive is a bonus gratitude item. Not all children live longer than their parents.

i am grateful because i know you know all this to be true. i am also grateful that you are alive. Not every parent gets a chance to have a 7th decade of life.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

i liked being a little rusty yesterday

i liked being a little rusty yesterday. Left the house about 1pm for a Southwest non-stop flight to Louisville. Five-mile cab ride. Room service dinner. Ninety-minute after dinner walk.

Business travel…

Like riding a bike.

Walt Disney had a dream

First photo taken yesterday in the Fairfield Inn lobby…heading out for a run.

 

Just like Martin Luther King, Jr had a dream, so did Walt Disney.

America celebrates today by closing government businesses and schools so we may have a conscious reminder to what MLK’s dream meant, and continues to mean, to every American.

And in our busy lives, many of us will recall only one thing today, that we enjoy having a paid holiday.

How do i know? Just a hunch, because that’s how i treated it for much of my working life.

The transformation came when i began teaching others about the power of a compelling vision. That was more than 15 years ago.

2,400 bottles of beer on the wall…

Speaking of genesis (below), photo from yesterday at the Comic Book store.

 

Today becomes the 2,400th consecutive day of writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts…12,000 posts:

Mind • Body • Spirit • Work • Home

Prior to April Fools Day 2009, i had not gone more than three consecutive days, and had never written five posts in a single day.

The genesis was a self-imposed 100-day writer’s bootcamp.

The pre-genesis was the 1979 promise (as a college Junior) i made to write a book of wisdom “for my kids”.
