Brainstorming through WordPress

Disney Keynote Speaker
Prevailing wisdom is context neutral, meaning the life-insight applies to all.

 

Brainstorming through WordPress.

Sometimes, i use the daily blog writing to brainstorm a project proposal or a solution to a challenge.

Currently working with one client who has no issues with my speaking fees.

Simultaneously, another client is being elusive.

Simple awareness is where everything begins.

 

The insight above grounds me.

As does this one…

The capacity to walk away grants you control.

 

Often, a wakeup call allows uncertainty and confusion to suddenly become crystal clear.

It is done.

Finally.

Over the weekend, went back in and re-wrote 200+- blog posts to fill in the calendar count gaps on the five main Mid Life Celebration websites.

Why was there a gap?

When i began blogging in 2008 – and particularly when i began writing five daily, differently-themed posts in April 2009 – Disney and Disney Institute didn’t have a social media policy.

The word on the street was, “Use good judgment”.

Never knowing i’d be blogging past the 100-day self-imposed writer’s bootcamp, i found myself with thousands of posts a few years later.

Eventually, we had an ambiguous (in my opinion) social media policy.

What if a leader subjectively said i crossed a line?

i rewrote many posts and some were too challenging to rewrite so i simply deleted them – roughly 200 posts gone, permanently.

Correcting Word Press calendar post tallies

Writing 200+- blog posts the past 48 hours has been taxing.

But i’ve been motivated to correct a flaw.

The flaw is in the Word Press monthly calendar post tallies.

About 18 months after i began writing five daily, differently-themed posts, i decided to go back and review everything i wrote and did one of three things:

  1. Left the post untouched
  2. Revised the post to remove any sound of Disney or Disney Institute “official voice”
  3. Deleted the post

This was an over-focusing on a worst-case scenario.

Worst case is someone over-reacting to something you made public.

Important to remember in 2008-2011+ blogging was literally the new “wild frontier” – uncharted wilderness.

In the absence of an official Disney and Disney Institute social media policy, everything was up for subjective review.

Subjective is not the way to measure.

By over-focusing, i slept well at night.

Writing and the first 90 days of 2017

Luck school
Finished Seth Godin’s “What To Do When It’s Your Turn (and it’s always your turn)” yesterday.

 

Writing and the first 90 days of 2017.

Burn the Ships

 

A writer would consider herself lucky to have a 90-day, 450 blog-post surplus, the result of her writer’s flood affliction.

However, she would also be panicked if she were desperately behind in her one-year writing quest.

If she was creative (and smart) she’d mash the two together to create Magic.

Once upon a time there was a challenge with the Walt Disney World Railroad.

 

The road to excellence has no finish line.

Clicking through the other four blogs at the end of the paragraph below you’ll learn about Magic Kingdom’s “poster-child” story for how the new Guest Satisfaction Measurement process began transforming the way front-line Cast Members had a voice for positive change.
