One-oval Church

Jim Bortner, left, was a good friend. He was an 880 runner. Coach put him in the 440 for some unknown reason.

Dedicated six teenage years to master the one-lap race.

The dedicated, passionate effort was a great life lesson. Didn’t know it at the time. But it’s clear now.

Doing the reps in a remarkable way produces, without a guarantee, remarkable results.

i think that’s called faith.

A mid-day Dole Whip in Adventureland never hurt anyone.

i never want Lee Cockerell to forget how much he influenced my life.

Dan Cockerell, Lee’s son, was an unintentional ice-breaker for Lee and me. Dan was a Guest Speaker at Disney Institute when i was the “SME” (Subject Matter Expert) for Disney’s Approach to Leadership Excellence.

Lee, many years later, introduced me to Jody Maberry.

Jody helped me record 100 podcast episodes of “If Disney Ran Your Life’.

The photo above made me smile.

There’s currently (early 2025) media buzz about changing the Gulf of Mexico’s name.

Coincidently, while cleansing my Facebook account, i stumbled on this old FaceBook post i did years ago. Can’t recall what inspired it:

What if David & Goliath formed a partnership?

Impossible?

Changing what we see changes what we see.

Facebook post
Screenshot from a decade ago.

Friends and family, so glad we came into each other’s lives.

For real.

Remember when we were younger, those promises we made to ourselves?

Pressure to get ahead.

Regrets.

The fear of you thinking I’m hoping you’ll buy this book is less than the fear of not letting you know the book exists.

Wrote it to our young son in case something bad ever happens and I’m not around.

Bathed in love, simple, focused, and very, very direct.

And it’s changing the way people think about their future.

We will either be an example or a warning.

Our life is not a dress rehearsal.

Be well and remain amazed.
