It’s easy to forget that normal human beings run Disney. The type of human beings found everywhere. Human beings who like to work hard and play hard. Try to find an organization where this isn’t true. Disney is no different.
Walt said that what we do is very serious business, but we should never take ourselves too seriously.
Business executives who admire Disney and wish to create their own brand of consumer Magic can find hope in the fact that it’s not the Magic that makes it work, it’s the hard work that makes it Magic.
Disney over manages details others either under manage or ignore completely.

Brian, a former Marine, and his wife Teresa have four grown children. They are visiting Family near Walt Disney World. We’ve known each other for 25 years. It was the first time meeting Brian’s step Mom.
During our leisurely lunch at Columbia Harbour House, we talked freely and abundantly about God and our infinite blessings.
Brian’s Mom shared how her husband died of cancer, and this led to a story about her overhearing a recently diagnosed cancer patient frustratedly asking aloud, “Why is God doing this to me?”
Just then, another woman (without cancer but who knew it well) said, “Why not me? Who am I that I should be spared from cancer?”
