Goodness, work

Disney cast member dining coupon
We enjoyed Epcot’s Teppan Edo a few days before Thanksgiving. It’s our favorite Disney restaurant. For four decades.

Work goodness manifests itself in countless ways. Near the top of anyone’s list is feeling appreciated.

Appreciation is podium-level work goodness.

Thankful for contributing

Yesterday, Thanksgiving 2025. Screenshot of 4pm text. A client for a decade.

Mind, body, spirit, work, home.

We think.

We move.

We feel.

We contribute.

We dwell.

i was 40 when the seed was planted for what i was born to do.

Never, ever.

Never ever ever ever gave an iota of a second to being a professional speaker.

Yet, since 1999, it’s been my contribution, my work, my career, to help others .think .differently about organizational vibrancy.

Thankful every day of the year for the initial revelation and the lifelong commitment to teaching “The Disney Way”.

Thanksgiving at work

While it took decades to discover, and another decade to hone, i’m thankful for finding a job career that “i was born to do”.

Secondly, so incredibly thankful, daily, to intentionally craft more get-to-do than have-to-do in my daily work responsibilities.

Speed limit mindset, work

Speed limit mindset at work?

How much is enough?

If Disney Ran Your Life…

Everything matters. Nothing is optional.

Have fun.

Set the bar to its highest level for your vision, your development, your accountability, and your commitment.

Push your boundaries.

Break Invent rules.

Don’t strive to be the best, strive to be different.

Find a unique, artful difference that no one else brings to organizational-vibrancy content and its delivery.

Different is better than better.

Mirror of my lifetime, work

What do i see in the mirror of my lifetime at work?

Mowing lawns.

Raking leaves.

Shoveling snow.

During high school, two summers in the warehouse where my mom worked. Minimum wage, 1975-76.

College, two summers working seven days a week, shift work (7am-3pm, 11pm-7am graveyard, 3-11pm).

Construction…bartending…odd jobs.

Then like 30 years at Walt Disney World.

And 11 years as a small business owner.

Review: From small-town kid to highly paid keynote speaker. How in the heck did that happen?
