Don’t hold your breath

Lee Cockerell Disney Executive Speaker
Even from the back of the room, Lee Cockerell reminds you of Walt Disney.

 

The first Mid Life Celebration, LLC keynote speaking check should arrive today. The client had wanted Lee Cockerell, but he wasn’t available. Guess who Lee’s first choice was to recommend?

What is invisible is that Mid Life Celebration actually went first in generously recommending. A couple months before retiring, a Canadian company called Mid Life Celebration to see about a speaking opportunity.

Because the date was before official retirement, i declined. Naturally, i gave my highest recommendation to contact Lee.

Where is the line?

Starbucks chalk board message

 

Where is the line between confidence and arrogance?

One person’s boast is another person’s dream.

Or maybe it becomes clearer here:

One Company’s boast is another company’s dream.

Apple has been called the most admired company in the world eight consecutive years. How many great Companies would love to say that?

All of them? Probably.

Boasting? Confidence?

Marketing?

The opposite or paradox is always compellingly self explanatory

Lee Cockerell books
Books for others, to be signed by the author.

 

The opposite, or paradox, is always compellingly self explanatory.

The opposite of:

  • hate
  • sedentary
  • greed

The opposite of:

  • thrive
  • humility
  • peace

The opposite of:

  • intentional
  • inspiring
  • honest

Does anyone else see the benefit of thinking like this to become a better leader?

And by think about it, we’re talking all day, everyday.

Amazon rejected jeff noel’s review of Lee Cockerell’s latest book

Walt Disney revealing EPCOT

 

Wrote Lee Cockerell’s latest Amazon book review yesterday. Amazon responded saying they couldn’t post it as written. Read the guidelines. Didn’t understand. Sent an appeal, at their invitation.

We’ll see what happens.

Here’s the original:

Lee Cockerell is a Time Management Deity. His inspiring message is clear, concise, and compelling. A brilliant double dose of not only “how”, but “why”. Imagine the time pressures and delivery expectations of being in charge of 40,000 Disney Cast Members for a decade. The best thing you can do after reading Lee’s book(s) is to subscribe to his Podcasts. To have access to Lee in this manner is priceless. It will change your life, like it did mine.
