Disney Customer Service Keynote Speaker
Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
Life can be overwhelming.
No secret there.
Today, may we all be able to discern what we can do and what we are powerless to do.
And may any glimpse of wisdom help us find solace in an Earthly world that will always have stormy weather.

The serenity prayer.
It’s your decision-making compass.
True North is what’s in your control.
South, the opposite direction, is what you can’t, and never will be able to, control.

Starting to sense i need to let go.
i asked the 90-year old, like i always do when we visit, “Are you afraid?”
Carrying a sense of obligation to help him articulate that he’s ok with his situation, even as it deteriorates.
Maybe i’ve tried long enough and hard enough.
Maybe next visit i don’t even mention it or concern myself with it.
It’s worth a try.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.
Larry and i hadn’t communicated for 30 years. As we spent five hours catching up, he responded to a section of our conversation where i had made significant changes in my life (2008-2009), particularly starting a business and the plan to retire from Disney at 55 (i was 49 at the time i made the plan).
Larry said something i had never considered. He said:
You took control of your life.
i had never considered that notion. In fact, it seemed quite the opposite. So i shared with him that perhaps in relinquishing control, i gained control.
It wasn’t until i surrendered everything to God that i was able to “take control” of my life.

The serenity prayer would be a great way to start 2015.
