Disney Leadership Keynote Speaker
Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five interconnected sites.
Orlando, The City Beautiful.
We live as far away from Orlando as you can possibly live and still have an Orlando address.
How it’s possible is beyond me.
This is why, at less than a mile from Walt Disney World, when people ask me, “Where are you from?”, i answer, “Walt Disney World.”
It’s a mindset, not a zip code.

Twenty-four hours ago, i woke up, just like i did a few minutes ago at 5am.
Like everyday.
And like every morning, i checked in on Twitter and this Tweet was the first one i saw…i only read the top part that says, “multiple injuries”…didn’t catch that the shooter was dead…
Then before leaving for Church this one…not sure what mass casualty means…
After Mass, this one…
Then we turned on the tv at home and learn 20 people died…OMG…
And then, to make this all worse than our worst nightmare ever…
Then, at the YuGiOh tournament in Kissimmee, this one…
May we all pause, think, cry, mourn, think some more, pray…and hope for some Heavenly miracle to reign down on humanity.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
This website is about our mental attitude. To easily and safely leave this site to read today’s post on jeff’s physical health website, click here.

Yes, yes, and yes.
In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned. When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot. – Mark Twain
Many critics, few patriots.
The cost of midlife personal responsibility is high.
The price of freedom in achieving it – priceless.
No one is going to climb our mountain for us.

My one regret in life is that I am not someone else. – unknown
Like that’s ever gonna happen.
Did something remarkable happen to you yesterday?
Odds are it was just another day.
Right?
But here’s the thing we all know.
We reap what we sow.
But even in knowing this, we still sow conservatively. Often too conservatively.
Sure do hope these blogs help you rethink that.

Dear Son, as your learning accelerates in fifth grade, you know how challenging it can be to score well in every subject. It’s far easier to excel in what you love.
While you are cognizant of Life’s Big Choices because of who your dad is, mostly, these ideas are what 11-year olds could care less about. Remember who you are and what, and why, you’ve been taught.
