Culture defined in one word

Disney Keynote Speaker
Disney Keynote Speakers, generally, are wise and decently entertaining.

Culture is defined in one word.

Habits.

The easier it is to do something, the easier it is to do it again. The easier it is to not do something, the easier it is to not do it again.

Note: Wisdom can often sound too elementary.

Only Disney Cast Members know

Only those who wear a Disney nametag understand it’s not the Magic that makes it work, it’s the work that makes it Magic. -dad

Disney taught me

meeting coo inside Disney University
“Thanks for dropping in!” Started working here in 1982. The Center Building. Now (and for a long time) called Disney University.

Disney taught me to exceed expectations by paying attention to details.

The essence is to pay attention to details that 99.9% of any audience will never notice.

Why invest time, effort, and or money on something “no one” notices?

Why? Because someone will notice and they will be blown away – the lucky recipient of the wow-factor.

The ripple effect from working in an organization that always does this is that you can transfer the practice into whatever role you play in your company.

Veterans Day text. Two days ago. Mitch is a High School classmate. His son, along with five others, was ambushed July 8, 2012. Cameron gave all that day.

Mitch and i were not close in High School. Our interests never connected us. But 4-5 decades later, with social media, you can find some ‘connection’.

Words shape how we see the world.

Words shape how we see ourselves.

Some words are too common to escape.

Some words are poison.

Some words are the cure.

Some words are ours to choose.

Some words are ours to trust and bank on.

Big cloud at sunset
While selecting this photo from my voluminous iPhone photo library, i mistook it for Glacier’s Continental Divide profile from far away. After adding it and starting this post, realized it’s my backyard tree line from our roof. Context, focus, and randomness all work together for a greater good.

The satisfaction from risk taking dwarfs the satisfaction from waiting and doing nothing.
