For starters, most social thinking is flawed

Another brand new day. What is it going to be? You are in charge of that.

 

Was reading yesterday and stumbled upon this statement:

You can never expect to be someone else’s priority if you aren’t your own.

What does this mean? For starters it is flawed thinking.

Why?

Because as a midlife adult, truth be told, no one will ever care more about you than you.

Everything that happens to us is our responsibility.

Running our life is like running a business, like it or not.

And not paying attention to the business details will drive us to bankruptcy.

And approaching each day in a balanced way, and with excellence, will keep our business in the black.

Insight: Be the entrepreneur you have always dreamt of being, starting with your promotion to CEO of You, Inc.

Bronze statues are nice and everything, but really, they shouldn’t be a goal.

Without indomitable will and unerring faith, every CEO jeapordizes the very nature of their title. Every CEO should exploit their faith and let it be the catalyst for personal greatness. Not greatness as in a bronze statue great. Greatness as in the best you you could possibly imagine.

Insight: There are some things in life that are non-negotiable. You must make your own decisions as to what they are.

The One Thing Every CEO Should Hide

...then this is how it should look to others.

Every CEO should hide their fear from their followers. Followers do not want a weak, fearful leader. Assuming you buy into the fact that you’re the CEO of You, it makes perfect sense to find a million ways to outlast your fear and properly dispose of it.

Insight: Heck yeah this is a difficult challenge to overcome. And until we conquer it, we will never have peace, nor balance.

Walt Disney's Epcot - Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow

It dawned on jeff noel after writing yesterday’s Mid Life Celebration post how much Disney has influenced his thinking and his midlife choices. After 28 years tCongratulations my friend. That’s a huge milestone and proof of what happens when we don’t give up. PS brilliant photo. Is that behind your childhood home?here, including 12 years teaching Walt Disney’s business practices, noel has only one way of thinking – creatively BIG!

The way Walt Disney thought – no limits. Same with Bob Iger (Disney’s CEO). Iger said he wants Disney to be universally recognized as the most admired company in the world. Bold. Extraordinarily bold.
