The road to excellence ends where?

Windermere 5k — The road to excellence has no finish line. Two days ago during 5k walk.

5k race bib — Always be driven to make the experience more hassle-free. Race packets used to contain a small ankle bracelet with the chip timer.

Running race chip technology — Continuous improvement benefits the customer and the company. No more chip bracelets.

The road to excellence has no finish line.

Would you prefer to go back to printing a boarding pass?

Or going to the library to do research?

Show me the conviction

Disney Customer Service Speaker — Rare photo of jeff leading Disney Institute tour before Park opening.

How easy is it for you to tell if someone is fully convicted about something, or if they are faking it?

i asked myself the same question.

Then, in a serious moment, i dove deeper.

The lack of conviction is easy to see.

Too many little inconsistencies that the sender can’t perceive but the receiver hears it loud and clear.

This conversation with myself started months ago with a new client. And five minutes ago, i stumbled upon this brilliant video to explain the concept a different way.

World-class comes with a price

Disney Keynote Speaker — 5-a-day blogging was supposed to last 100 days, but i honestly had zero confidence i could make it a week. Bottomline, i needed to practice writing in order to write my first book (above).

World-class comes with a price.

There are uncommon, and unconventional, categories in the business world that are relatively unknown.

How about the category, “She does what she says she’s gonna do?”

No one is competing to be the best in the world at this. Not really. And certainly not officially.

With deep humility (corny, yet true), i believe i’d be a contender.

A promise.

Two hours a day.

Seven days a week.

Fifty-two weeks a year.

Eight consecutive years.

That’s 2,922 straight days without missing a single day.

At five daily, differently-themed blog posts, that’s 14,610 posts.

This is post 14,614 and day 2,923.

Year nine began 90 minutes ago.
