As success becomes imminent, a new fear is born

As success becomes imminent, a new fear is born. The fear of looking arrogant. A confident entrepreneurial startup founder must exude confidence.

Exude.

That’s pretty intense. And to some, intimidating. It reminds people of their decaying dreams.

It’s time to follow the fatherly advice i have consistently shared with our 14-year old.

Why focus on the ones who will say jealous things? And we all know how those behind-someone’s-back conversations go, because we’ve all been jealous, so it’s no secret.

It’s the difficult path that others laugh at.

Not because it’s difficult, but because it’s lonely.

And scary.

How good do you want to be?

Good enough to go viral?

Good enough to lead the category?

Good enough to become the category?

Headline news:

Competitive immunity comes from being a category of one.

The goodness just would not stop

The goodness just would not stop yesterday. Returning to the car to drive home was a wonderful surprise reunion with four Disney Institute colleagues. Got hugs from Radar, Jillian, Mike M, and Jim.

Between the comments from posting the Map My Run app photos on Facebook to jogging from home to Disney and Magic Kingdom selfies, to celebrating the first post Disney keynote speech for a Fortune 150 last week, it was a very good day.

And it was only 2pm.

When habits are changed, new life is born

When habits are changed, new life is born.

A big part of being the first to embrace the newest technology is having a technology provider that’s admirable.

Apple is so admirable, they’ve been the “The Most Admired Company in the World” seven consecutive years.

What’s not to trust.

Go.

It’s 2015 (or the first day of Fall)… live like you mean it.

In the absence of a current coach, do not underestimate self coaching

(photo: Blowing your own horn is really awkward for some. Maybe we should try pounding our own drum?)

In the absence of a current coach, do not underestimate self coaching.

Wait, self coaching means we have to look a bit egotiscial.

Or, we could quietly beat ourselves up.

Or… we could put positive things in writing.

As a wonderfully humble reminder.

Say from a blog or something.

I’ve known many Disney Cast Members over the years, and I don’t think I know of anyone more genuine, more real, than Jeff Noel. Because of his integrity, he is one of the few people who can afford to be transparent. He simply is who he says he is, and that’s a wonderful thing for all around him. While our paths have moved in separate directions, I consider him a friend, and consider myself blessed for having known him. He is a Disney legacy. He is what Disney should always be about. Congratulations Jeff

We all have a private folder containing nice, written customer compliments and cards, or wonderful notes from coworkers or family, etc.

And no one ever sees it except us.
