The most important lesson i learned from 30 years at Disney

Disney Keynote Speakers
Castle turrets always ignite creative thinking in my world.

 

The most important lesson i learned – and use in daily life – from 30 years at Disney…

Over-focus on the same things you used to under-focus on or ignore.

Learn to be intentional where you used to be unintentional.

Why did jeff noel pick April Fools Day to start?

Midlife Celebration
Photo: from 2011. First blog posts are from 2008. Daily writing began April 1, 2009.

 

April Fools Day is the day many people play practical jokes.

So what April Fools Day practical joke did jeff noel play on this date in 2009?

None.

The impossible goal of writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts for 100 consecutive days was not a joke.

Knowing i wanted to write my first book coupled with the 2008-09 economic tsunami – it was a perfect catalyst to gain writing practice.

But i thought i was a fool to believe in such a ridiculously ambitious goal.
