On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

When it comes to culture, it’s brutally simple.
Confusion repels.
Clarity attracts.
Culture by design, or culture by default.
What we accept by default becomes the standard.

Where would i be if i had not written the first sentence in 2009?
Although it took 30 years to write the first sentence, it only took two more years to finish my first book.
And once it was finished, it took two more years to get the guts to publish it.
All told, a 34-year project.
Where would i be if i had not begun?
Publishing a book is a big deal until you do your first one, then you understand some secrets about life that you would have never discovered.
These secrets have no way of ever being discovered if we wait and do nothing.

Struggling is a big part of life. You know, the personal struggles we all face.
But what about in business?
Do entire companies need to struggle with a culture that isn’t intentional?
No.
All that needs to be done is to over-focus on the very same things everyone else either under-focuses on or ignores.
My days are spent talking with executive leaders who don’t know how to initiate a culture like this.
It’s what i’ve grown up on, spent a lifetime doing, and now teach others how to do it themselves.
And it all started on January 25, 1982, when i began my Disney career as a front-line Cast Member, jungle jeff.
PS. Sometimes i end a post just like this one. No moral, no punchline, no call to action. It just ends. Why? Because i figure what happens next it up to the reader.

Thank goodness for life’s sucker punches.
It was 2008-2009 at Walt Disney World and a new round of layoffs was in progress.
This time, the first time in my 24 years at Disney, it didn’t make sense.
It didn’t make sense for many people, including me. The bottomline was this: i felt vulnerable, and i had never experienced that before.
i hated it.
But then i embraced it.
It was in finding the silver lining that i was able to thrive.
And i decided the best time to create a plan b was when i didn’t need to.
That’s how my business, and early Disney retirement (after 30 incredible years) idea was born.
