Disney’s top business insight

Disney Speakers
Couple days ago in Disneyland’s Toon Town.

 

The most important Disney business insight, the one that captures the essence of the whole volume:

We over-focus on the same things others under-focus on or ignore.

 

Yeah, it’s that simple.

Say this to yourself and see if it makes perfect sense (it should)…

I now over-focus on the same things I used to under-focus on or ignore.

West Glacier road signs

West Glacier Amtrak

Glacier Park authors

Business connections don’t fall from the sky.

As a small business startup, you often wish they did.

The good news?

i love making and building business connections.

The bad news?

It’s time-consuming.

The good news?

Nearly every business practice has never-ending room for creative improvement.

Better scale. More impact. Greater contribution. Bigger ripple effect.

Another screen shot, not a hyperlink embedded video.

 

This 43-minute video is packed with subtle business insight from comedian Brian Reagan.

He’s spent a lifetime honing his art.

Three tips i gleaned (without intending to):

  1. Decide what you stand for (he decided to be a “clean” comedian).
  2. Make as many mistakes as you can in order to perfect your art (he worked every night at a comedy club – for 2.5 years. Other wanna-be comedians didn’t invest a fraction of this effort.).
  3. Be aware about what stirs your soul and explore it (his college speech teacher laughed at his jokes – as he walked back to his dorm, he felt special in ways he never had before).

This clip i’ve hyper-linked for you (above) serendipitously came across my path on Father’s Day.

It’s not called Show Show

American Idol 2018
Last night i watched the recorded Finals. As of 6am this morning, i still don’t know who won.

 

It’s not called Show Show.

It’s called Show Business.

Business.

People ride you when your song drops in the charts, or when it climbs too slowly.

People love you when your song is climbing.

You are responsible for both.

You.

You probably didn’t think being a star involved the business side.

Know what happens if you don’t figure out the business side?

Think “has-been”.
