How long does a typical American career last?

Disney Institute top speakers
From our Disney Institute Participant Guide book. Imagine a person entrusted to teach eager students how to reach for the stars. Imagine if the instructors didn’t actually practice what they preached. i couldn’t live with this thought. Years ago i committed to only preaching what i practice.

 

How long does a typical American career last?

Ten, 20, 30, 40+ years?

How long does a typical American invest in staying physically active?

i’m reminded that it took me 40 years before i committed to “never turning away” from getting and staying physically active.

Think lifetime gym class where you’re the teacher and the student.

And here we are, roughly 100 days from my 59th birthday.

At 58, i’ve reached a level of physical vibrancy i never knew was possible, let alone possible for a “senior citizen”.

And to think, there are people my age who haven’t yet started.

Go.

What leadership thoughts come to mind at a Funeral?

What leadership thoughts come to mind when you attend a funeral?

 

What leadership thoughts come to mind at a Funeral?

At what point in life should we be prepared for death?

Is our paperwork, wishes, and logistical plan laid out?

Have we prepared for multiple scenarios (tragedy, disease, injury, old-age)?

What legacy (if we wanted one) is desired and how do others understand this?

Was the deceased afraid or excited about the next leg of their journey?

The awkward and correct answer is “no”

Texting and driving
This used to be me. Phone in hand in busy rush hour traffic. Texting and driving. Photo: Less than 24 hours ago at a 30-lane intersection near Interstate 4 and Universal Studios. Also two blocks from my gym. There is a car seat in back too, but it was empty.

 

The awkward and correct answer is “no”.

Tough love.

Danger – codependency.

Obviously, life is hard.

It’s our job to figure it out.

The long way is the short cut.

If your goal isn’t impossible…

Six days ago. My final Disney name tag and a client’s “extra-inch” pin.

 

If your goal isn’t impossible. you’re not reaching high enough.

These Disney Institute professional development participants are on a mission to create the world’s smartest and happiest city.

Who do they think they are?

Pretty audacious if you ask me.

Which is perfect, by the way.

Are amazing and a bargain synonymous?

Grabbed an iPhone screen shot of the 10:30am statement, while riding my bike home.

 

Most people i know, myself included, want amazing, but we also want a bargain.

Rarely do these things come packaged together.
