Have been asking what would mornings (or in recent years, afternoons) look like with an extra two hours not devoted to writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts.
Simultaneously, a fair question to ask is how much is enough?
Seriously, 15 years, well over 27,000 blog posts.
By the way, my published blog post total is more than 10,000 posts over the “official” world record of 17,212.

5-second video: Betty White was a “Rock Star”. She’s the only “celebrity” i ever asked to get a photo with. You probably know the story of how Cheryl and i took Luther (our 1st of 3 Yellow Labs) to see Betty in her Suite, at her request.
Later in the day, while chilling in the back yard, pulled up a chair in the shade and watched the “Nature Channel”.

It’s common for potential (and existing) clients to think Disney gurus are miracle workers.
That’s like thinking Lebron James could make any person an NBA All-Star, or Taylor Swift could make any person the next “Taylor Swift”.
It doesn’t work like that.
And i know you know that, but when people are paying you for your help, and you have a rockstar heritage, well, people forget what’s obvious.
Desperate people want miracles.
Why?
Because they’ve been trying to not be desperate for a long time. Far too long. Painfully long.
Now they are simply irrational.
Money can’t buy you love.
Money can’t buy you an instant solution.
But money can buy you a business shaman.
It’s your only hope.
Pro-tip when hiring a business shaman: Be prepared to do the reps. Like your organization’s life depends on it. Because it does.
