Live and let live, work

boyscout jamboree information guide from 1973
Half a century ago. Time flies. Live and let live.

Context for this post: This is for the self-employed.

Let your peers and your competitors contribute the way they want to contribute.

You can contribute as much or as little as suits you.

Note: If you have direct reports and receive a weekly salary from a company, then parameters and expectations on others dramatically change.

Summer solstice 2025, work

elementary school front entrance doors
East Glacier has enough people to support a small elementary school.

Dream big.

Get there.

Stay there.

Applies to everything, everyone, everywhere.

i birthed the three-part idea in 2009 as the tagline for Lane8.org

It’s the ‘stay there’ that throws humans.

Why?

Few of us have the bandwidth and motivation to make excellence last a lifetime. At least that’s what i’ve observed for 60+ years.

Change what you see, work

You know how the drill goes..

When you change what you see, what you see changes.

Change your commitment to your contribution, change what you see.

The need to grow, work

Disney Keynote Speaker Jeff Noel in the magic Kingdom tunnel
My final day as an active Walt Disney World Cast Member, October 31, 2014. The absence of a smile is because i was not expecting to retire after 32 years.

The 10th anniversary of my Disney retirement is October 31, 2024.

The original plan was to retire in 2024 after 40 years of Disney service.

But the compelling, transformational growth opportunity in 2014, after 30 years of Disney service, proves to have played out better than hoped.

Growth opportunities only guarantee the opportunity. They do not guarantee the results. That is on me.

Accepting this 100% is growth. For me. For anyone.

Favorite job? Work

Employer branding, social media image
From my Disney Institute colleague BC Johnson’s LinkedIn post today. World-class organizations have been doing this for decades. It’s presented as a new concept now due to epidemic ‘employer branding’ negligence.

Favorite job?

Disney professional speaker.
