How do you scale career excellence for an entire lifetime?

How do you scale career excellence for an entire lifetime?

Find a million ways to stay motivated.

Live as if every day is a new day (because it is).

Live in deep gratitude every moment of every new day.

Live as if you and the people you work with have a mission to make our world a better place.

If you can’t find people or an organization to make the world a better place, start your own organization – be an army of one if you have to.

Do work that is challenging and often difficult, yet simultaneously rarely feels like work.

See money as the reward, not the goal.

Glacier National Park trip four, work

Divide Mountain and Wild Goose Island
Divide Mountain and Wild Goose Island, dusk, July 2014. Just past Divide Mountain the Great Plains’ western border ends.

 

Glacier National Park trip four, work.

All nine days are focused on writing like i mean it.

Not a single day on the agenda that calls for zero writing.

Nature is like leadership: beautiful and brutal

Bear sighting near Hidden Lake Overlook from jeff noel on Vimeo.

 

Nature is like leadership: beautiful and brutal.

Many wonderful things are visible when great leadership (or stunning Nature) is present.

What’s brutal is the harsh reality of survival.

Glacier reminds its visitors that there is a food chain and death is a natural and necessary part of the beauty.

Leadership reminds us that some companies thrive for decades and others suffer a quick, or lingering, demise.

Disney is not interested in these people

Disney Institute Speaker
Enthusiasm is contagious.

 

Disney is not interested in people who sort of care.

It’s okay to not care deeply (commitment) about your job.

Just know if you want to work for Disney, you will find your greatest joy when you figure out how to scale your commitment for a decades-long career.

There is never a time when you get to coast at Disney.

i’m climbing literally and figuratively.

Climbing at Glacier.

Climbing with over 900 pages in seven books.

Surrender to imperfection

Disney Keynote Speaker
The focus (out of my control) creates an energy and a karma that using an iPhone allows to happen organically.

 

The iPhone has an automatic focus.

No turning a lens to control what’s in, or out of, focus.

You can influence focus, but not guarantee it.

The iPhone’s “organic” and automatic focus creates an energy and a karma that requires the viewer to accept – and appreciate all photos as little or as much as the viewer would like.

The imperfection is the part i appreciate the most.

That, and the surrendering to imperfection (which flourishes).

Now, apply today’s insight to writing sentences and paragraphs for a series of books that encompass “The Disney Way”.
