Three-week countdown, spirit…
Spiritually, emotionally, it’s literally impossible to comprehend the daily blogging effort.
i’ve published over 31,000 blog posts in my lifetime.
The odds of never crossing a line in 31k attempts?
Low. Impossibly low.
The odds of crossing a line in 31k attempts?
High, almost certainly gonna happen.
The spiritual and emotional risks of doing what no one else wanted to do…
This “what if i unintentionally publish something controversial or confidential?”
Heavy emotional toll simply from ‘worrying’ about crossing an invisible, imaginary line.
Trusted my Disney experience, Disney wisdom, and Disney insight that i could proceed without crossing a line.
Then again, lines are often in the eyes of the beholder.
But i moved forward anyway.
How could i not?
My mantra then and still to this day, “What would Walt do?”
So i kept moving forward.
Just like Walt.
Then why organizational resistance?
Well, here’s a headliner…
What if we cross a line we can’t see until after the fact?
We are too conservative to go first.
We are too big and slow to go first.
Because nearly two decades ago in 2007, everyone was afraid of ‘social media’.
It wasn’t called social media in 2007.
We just called it “The Internet”.
The World Wide Web.
Scary.
No one at Disney Institute embraced blogging.
No one at Disney Institute wanted to go first.
Except me.
So i went.
