Self-reflection harvest

pool water chlorine test kit
Our back porch is my most favorite place to visit in the world. Our front porch is second. Glacier, WDW, and Sanibel are a three-way tie for third favorite place to visit.

The harvest from the past few days’ self-reflection reminds me of several critical personal values and behaviors.

  • Patience – never lose it
  • Anger – never let it happen
  • Hate – never allow room for it in your heart
  • Surrender – habitually discern what’s outside your control
  • Forgiveness – God’s amazing Grace
  • Honesty – never have to look over your shoulder
  • Leadership – you are CEO of You, Inc
  • Role Model – your life is your message

After the writing yesterday’s posts, an aha-moment. The moment is driven by the Lakeside Church service i’m about to walk to.

How do i say something valuable and forward-thinking to Pastor Chuck and Pastor Russ?

Will encounter them both within the next 90 minutes.

The best storyteller

Disney customer service keynote speaker
Started a tradition. Text Lee and Dan Cockerell, and Jody Maberry every time there’s a visit. Yesterday was one such day. Pre-Thanksgiving Day week. Wore mask although not required.

Your life is your message.

In a perfect world, you don’t need to explain anything with words.

In a perfect world, your actions tell your story.

In a perfect world.

Aim for perfection, settle for excellence.

The road to excellence has no finish line.

Pain shouldn’t be permission

Pain forces even the innocent to lie.

You reap what you sow

Disney Keynote Speaker
A potential Indonesian client is using a consulting company to find a Disney Theme Park speaker. On a video Zoom call, the consultants saw all the Disney “trophies” on the bookcase behind me and suggested i include some photos in the proposal. Included this photo and few others i took yesterday to add in the proposal i sent last night.

You reap what you sow.

You don’t win a Disney Lifetime Achievement Award, the award is bestowed on you. You receive it because the rigorous and anonymous Disney selection criteria and process focuses on behaviors. This is such a big deal that being nominated is considered a high honor.

Once nominated, names are removed and only the Cast Member’s behaviors are shared with the selection committees.

In the photo above, Partners In Excellence was Disney’s original Lifetime Achievement Award. It was retired after 15 years and replaced with the Walt Disney Legacy Award in 2012.

How many reputations do you have?

Trick question.

If you live six decades, you’ve come in contact with many people.

How many reputations do you have?

Have you figured it out yet?
