Wildcard day, spirit

Tree slowly overtaking chain link fence
Growth so slow, no one notices.

What’s a blogging challenge few, if any, know about?

The cost from having ten WordPress websites.

Blogging memories day 7, spirit

Disney Institute Team in Detroit 2011
Stumbled upon the 2011 photo from a Disney Institute engagement in Detroit. Development can be as simple as encouraging others to have fun.

What are some of your earliest blogging memories?

In addition to fostering my personal peace, i have fond, powerful memories of:

Igniting personal creativity.

Captaining my own ship.

Making decisions with a small-business owner mindset.

Also have memories of colleagues doing the traditional MBA studies to ‘elevate’ their business acumen.

And i recall thinking, my self-directed MBA won’t deliver a paper-diploma.

However, it will deliver a remarkably more valuable diploma.

A diploma called a small, profit-producing business that can do nothing but become more profitable.

Everyone’s gotta eat and pay rent.

Business traveler wallet
Flashback on my last year (2014) at Disney Institute. No longer use coffee or a WDW Corporate Credit Card.

What are some of your earliest blogging memories?

One of the earliest and most important…

What will you write about?

Had an idea to write about balance. i had struggled with it for four decades and finally had revelations on a common-sense recipe and a paradoxical success measurement metric.

Blogging memories day 5, spirit

Disney Customer Service Advisor
Colorado State University during my final Summer (2014) as a Disney Institute Keynote Speaker.

What are some of your earliest blogging memories?

My Plan B to write a book was to have a Keynote Speaker “Business card”.

You can picture audiences sorta saying, “Oh, our keynote speaker is a published author.”

Sounds impressive.

Seemed like a reasonable tactic.

And since i was 25 years into my full-time Disney career, and a small-business building amateur, i was super busy and super ignorant.

Yeah, fun, early memories.

Blogging memories day 4, spirit

Disney Creativity Keynote Speakers
The Disney Approach to Creativity and Innovation is no longer taught at Disney Institute. i taught this session here at Orange County Convention Center. Photo is from where i stood for most of the Creativity and Innovation Keynote. It was a theater in the round stage.

What are some of your earliest blogging memories?

Besides having a ton of questions, i also had a ton of ideas.

Uncharted territory.

Ton of ideas.

Ton of potential risk.
