The reason people can’t achieve balance?

Disney Executive Speakers
Last day teaching at Disney Institute was Oct 29, 2015

 

There aren’t many experts.

But there are some.

Experts become experts because they have fought to win a rare, and regular, intimacy with something thought to be a myth.

The reason people can’t achieve balance?

It’s because their definition is wrong.

How do i know?

Three decades at Disney, searching for a balance role model, none were found.

And 15 years ago on the verge of becoming a father, i decided to begin the slow and steady process of becoming the change i wished to see.

Balance isn’t just about work and home life.

Balance also isn’t simply about mind, body, spirit.

Balance is about all five.

And balance isn’t about time.

It’s about energy.

Does our attitude drive our decision making?

Does our attitude drive our decision making. (Pick one: no or yes)

We think today is just another ordinary day. As we think, we become. One ordinary day at a time.

We think today is another wonderful gift. As we think, we become. One extraordinary day at a time.

Choose one.

Everyday.

Our attitude will automatically form a response of “true” or “false”.

Chase meaning or remain in your comfort zone? One will enhance your health, one won’t.

Why is this relevant to what happens to you today?

Disney Management Speakers

 

Why would “living like you mean it” be relevant to what happens to you today?

Should we have a personal battle cry for easy access to our daily inspiration?

As CEO of You, Inc, we create what makes us successful.

And we intuitively understand how repetition creates our habits.

Repetition creates habits.

Habits are in our control.

Habits make us or break us.

Weirdly enough, we know this yet do little, if anything, to change.

Why?

Because change is hard and routine is easy.

The repetition of a simple, direct, balanced, lofty approach has the power to influence.

But only through repetition.

Finished reading Mid Life Celebration for the 25th time on the return flight home yesterday.

The number represents reading of the published paperback or Kindle version. It does not include the many readings of the unpublished work.

This book is as short and sweet and powerful as they come.

“An inspirational wakeup call in about an hour.”

Over and over again.

Three little choices

Kermit the frog quote

The second most magnificent day in our lives is ours to discover.

Intentionality is a choice.

Reacting is a choice.

Auto pilot is a choice.
