What’s a party without friends?

Yesterday. Videos games, card games, outdoor games, and spirited conversation.

What’s a party without friends?

Games of all sorts.

Conversation, serious and non-sensical.

Laugther.

Wee hours of the night/morning.

Crash pad.

No worries.

Make every day a day worth celebrating

Family Christmas
Life is a blur. Enjoy that. Having Chapin along for 19 years has been icing on the cake. So insanely lucky.

Make every day a day worth celebrating.

Want to know the value of a single day?

Ask someone who’s counting theirs.

People are in business to be excellent

Aunt Janice and Uncle Mike came from Pennsylvania to attend.

You’re in the business to be excellent at what you do.

i’m in business to facilitate you becoming excellent beyond your wildest dreams.

This is true being a parent.

It is true for WPS’s new Headmaster for the 2019-2020 school year.

Son, it will be interesting to see how i approach the opportunity to help Nord Angila Education.

Two pods in a pea

Jody Maberry and jeff noel at Disney
We moved side by side so we could see the same notes.

Two pods in a pea.

Of course it’s backwards.

There’s no obligation on me to say it the way everyone knows it.

A variation of freedoms that is fun to experience.

Son, i’ve earned the privilege to write what i want, when i want, and in the style i want.

How and why?

By writing every day for over a decade. By not having social share buttons nor an email subscription option – my writing is under no obligation to meet any expectation.

Son, freedom takes many forms. “Writing freedom” is a favorite.

Please think deeply about not exercising

Mark and i worked together at Disney’s Grand Floridian and Spa as well as Disney Institute, probably 20 years total.

Please think deeply about not exercising.

Totally agree with Mark.

Yes and, there are many leaders who do not exercise regularly, do not eat well-balanced nutrition, nor do they insist on adequate sleep.

If they are not trusting themselves to get and stay healthy, why would we trust them with stuff at work?

When experts talk, listen to the entire message. Cues and clues are everywhere.

Son, you have developed a keen sense of awareness in reading people. Trust your gut.

Sometimes your gut will be wrong. This is rare. Play the odds that your gut is your best defense and offense.

PS. Walt was an amazing visionary leader. He also died from lung cancer. Rumor is that the Disney point came from photoshopped photos of Walt’s cigarettes being removed, leaving behind two fingers as if in a point.

PSS. In the 1980’s at Disney’s Contemporary Resort lobby Concierge Desk, i made change for a $20 bill for Roy E. Disney. In that brief encounter i saw how Roy’s fingers were permanently stained from smoking. His fingers…that’s a lot of smoking.
