Disney: Let The Memories Begin

Disney announced yesterday a new corporate campaign to help people all over the world have fun together. It’s called Let The Memories Begin.

And also yesterday, I was telling a fellow blogger that people think I don’t need to worry about my health, because I’m so physically fit.

And then another person joined in our conversation, commenting on my optimism. And after she left, I told my friend, “Same thing with attitude. I just work hard at it. ALL DAY, EVERYDAY”.

Happy people have to work hard at being happy. Many people don’t believe this.

Disney’s philosophies and Disney’s products are one of the tactics you can use to stay focused on the positive. Don’t believe me? Click here.

Will You Find Time Today?

How Insightful Do We Need To Be?
How Insightful Do We Need To Be?

Will you find time, today, to give thanks, and count your blessings?

If not today, when?

Got up at 4AM (almost an hour ago) in order to carve out time to think and write.

It will be a productive, exciting and long day, just like yours.

Much of what happens today will be driven by the mission work I do as a transformational speaker.

The Green Mile?

He Wouldn't Hurt A Flea
He Wouldn't Hurt A Flea

Tom Hanks is a legendary movie star. One of his films was The Green Mile (1999).

There was a character in the movie who could pray so hard that he could remove bad things from people’s lives.

Odd thing though, they had to sneak him out of jail to go perform these “miracles”, and then sneak him back into the prison.

After he prayed his special way, he was completely and utterly spent.

What if we could pray like that? What kind of personal leadership would it require?

Truth Is Reality

Life Can Be Confusing
Life Can Be Confusing

“Truth, like gold, is to be obtained not by its growth, but by washing away from it all that is not gold.” – Leo Tolstoy

The answers to life’s big questions are so simple, most people will never discover them.

And when you are at work, are you and example of great leadership or a warning for what not to do?

Happy Hour Is An App

So Everyone Who's Alive, This Is You
So Everyone Who's Alive, This Is You

Our lives have been irrevocably changed since the advent of _______.

Fill in the blank, but don’t forget the less obvious choices:

  • Fire
  • Bow & Arrow
  • Boat
  • Wheel
  • Paper
  • Bridge
  • Toothbrush
  • Happy Hour

Our Pastor was telling a story yesterday about a fellow Priest who worked until he was 86. This Pastor friend had two sayings posted on his mirror:

  1. Happy Hour is an app
  2. Time is running out

Yesterday’s Gospel reading’s hypothesis was that to whom much has been given, much will be required, which is why I don’t have time for this (drinking) app.

But we can be certain the 86-year old Pastor wasn’t talking about 2-for-1.
