It’s not the Magic

Disney Service Keynote Speakers
Eventually, everyone knows it’s a Disney character, but may not know which one.

It’s not the Magic that makes it work, it’s the work that makes it Magic.

Guest Podcast yesterday

Disney Keynote Speaker
It’s not the Magic that makes it work, it’s the work that makes it Magic.

Guest Podcast yesterday. Mike Simmons at Catalyst Sale Podcast had me on for “The First Noel” on December 25, 2018. He invited me back for April Fools Day 2019.

We decided this in mid-December, and did it less than 24 hours ago.

The podcast theme was .think .differently and doing the impossible.The only time i could easily record this was walking home from the gym using Air Pods and being near traffic.

We lost audio quality but we gained a recording. Will the content trump the sound quality? Depends why you listen.

If Disney Ran Your Life is broad and deep

story board
As of February 12, 2019 this storyboard is the plan. This goes live April 12. We’ll see if we stayed true or detoured.

If Disney Ran Your Life is broad and deep.

This Podcast is one of the most fun, unpredictable, and rewarding experiences ever. Professionally, it ranks with starting a business in 2009, initiating the writing of 5 daily, differently-themed blogs (also in 2009), and retiring from Disney on Halloween in 2014. 

It does not rank as high as becoming a Disney professional speaker at Disney Institute in 1999. 

Why?

Podcasting is not a life-changer. But becoming a public speaker was. Until 1999, never knew i was born to teach.
