Mid Life Celebration is a chip off of this old block – Walt Disney.

For the past 8k posts, have avoided mentioning I work full time at Walt Disney World Resort – and have for three decades.

Why remain silent?

Don’t really know why.

It surely isn’t a secret.

The Internet has ensured there are no secrets.

About anything.

Walt Disney always felt the bar for excellence was never high enough and nothing was impossible.

Insight: Pay attention, there is always a lesson to be learned. And rarely are the lessons handed to us on a silver platter.

PS. Trying to explain why I’ve written five daily, differently-themed blogs is like trying to explain Walt Disney’s obsession with quality – sort of a big mystery, until one day it’s not.

The leader’s job isn’t to maintain the status quo, the leaders job is to break the mold.

Flippin’ amazing, just like she had hoped. Like the prediction yesterday, the desire to be flippin’ amazing paid off.

Delivering amazing isn’t for ourselves and our next promotion (unless we’re selfish), it’s for the people we serve.

We know this, no?
