What do you want from life?

What do you want from life?

Are you sure?

Do your habits enable or inhibit progress?

How significantly does your attitude enable or inhibit?

One amazing day leads to another

writing Disney books in Glacier National Park
Word spread through Apgar, Montana that everyone should rush down to Lake McDonald.

It felt close enough to touch.

Meanwhile, life goes on as planned. Those mountains are a dozen miles away.

The morning after – no pill required to be inspired.

 

Couple weeks ago the day ended well, which led to a new day (4th photo, above) of writing from my room.

Happy Summer Solstice

Glacier National Park
Every time you see the same thing, do you see it differently? Pictured above is The Garden Wall in Glacier National Park as a cold/rain front moves in.

 

We judge ourselves on our intentions.

Everyone else judges us on our behaviors.

Leadership opportunity number one.

Consider throwing away intentions.

They are worthless.

Actions are the only leadership currency.

Trust me.

Claiming you’re writing seven Disney Business books versus saying you’ve published seven Disney Business books…

All the difference in the world.

Waiting and doing nothing

Going to the sun road plowing status
Going-To-The-Sun Road plowing status. T-minus seven days until wheels up at 8am. Status from May 22, 2018 (yesterday).

 

 

Waiting and doing nothing are the twin siblings of self-destruction.

Inaction breeds doubt and fear. Action breeds confidence and courage. If you want to conquer fear, do not sit home and think about it. Go out and get busy.  – Dale Carnegie

Gonna be a busy Summer.

The hardest part isn’t what to do, it’s what not to do.

Not stalling.

Not procrastinating.

Not making excuses.

Not worrying about it not being good enough.

Happy New Day

Disney Keynote Speaker hiking
The Crown of The Continent – Glacier National Park. First trip begins in 11 days.

 

Happy New Day.

Awoke at 3am.

Filled with ideas and excitement.

But if i start working at 3am, i miss two hours of sleep.

Short-term, like until about 1pm, it would be an advantage.

But after lunch, i’d be ready for a nap – i’d rather not.

Decision time – so i close my eyes and hope to not reawaken until 5am.

Probably 10 more looks at the clock as time seemed to stand still.

i fought the temptation to arise.

Hard.

Perseverance paid off.

Eventually and excitedly began at 4:55am.

The 2018 Disney Way Keynote Speaking has been busy January through May and i’m now officially on a Summer sabbatical through September.

Hell-bent on finishing the series of Disney Business books that have have been incubating, two-thirds completed, in my mind and heart.
