What do good people do?

Jeff Noel keynote speech 72-hour challenge
For many years, every speech i’ve given, this is the final slide.

What do good people do?

Good people do good things.

Don’t overthink its simplicity and elementary-status.

Ps. You can over-focus on it (and you absolutely should), but be careful about dismissing its childish sound. You’re welcome.

Note: No sense in offering time-tested, world-class, Disney business insights in my keynotes without a sincere challenge to the audience to apply them. And because i had never seen any keynote speakers doing it, i decided to set my own standard. It felt (and continues to feel) like a good and decent thing to do.

What does it look like?

18-second video: A college fraternity brother is getting conflicting results about CJD. While he awaits final answers, doing what i can to remind him and his wife that we are thinking of, and praying for, them.

What does “living like you mean it” look like?

Living like you mean it looks a lot like snowflakes. No two snowflakes are exactly the same (as the saying goes anyway). No two people, no two ways, no two actions are exactly the same.

However, make a pile of snowflakes and it simply looks white.

Make a pile of “living like you mean it” actions and it simply looks invisible to most people. Or, if not invisible, perhaps it simply looks like good and decent living.

Yet one of your actions can have a loving effect on only two people. And only those two people will ever know that in that moment you were “living like you mean it”.

Insight: A busy life can make over-focusing tempting to ignore or delay (possibly forever).

Routine prayers?

Routine prayers?

Establishing a prayer routine is the same as not establishing a prayer routine. The similarity is obvious — either way you have a routine. The first routine is established by design, the second, by default.

Ps. My routine is to pray without ceasing. All day. Every day. Habits. Auto-pilot. Walking in the present moment’s grace, opportunity, and need. Long ago i abandoned thinking pray was only with hands folded in a church pew.

Not now, but soon, right?

Not now, but soon, right?

You will never regret becoming and staying spiritually vibrant.

You know…

Peaceful, patient, intentional, over-focused.

Gratitude centered.

Are you limited?

Are you limited?

A limit on what you think you can do puts a limit on what you can do next.

Here are some self-imposed limits to measure, maintain, or improve?

  • Who you think you can forgive.
  • What you think you can forgive.
  • What you can surrender to.
  • Why you want to surrender.
  • What you are grateful for.
  • Why you are grateful.

All of these and countless more are only limited by the thoughts in your head. Concurrently, they are also limited by what you are motivated to act on.
