Thank goodness for risks and failures

Disney's Wilderness Lodge light pole
Can you tell where this Walt Disney World location is just from the light pole design?

Thank goodness for risks and failures.

What?

Thank goodness for risks and failures.

Without them…

We would never learn to walk.

We’d never improve.

We’d never come alive.

We’d never know fear.

We’d never know joy.

And we’d never know freedom.

Freedom and joy lies on the other side of decisiveness

Today. Had only three plugins to start with. Also deactivated the Genesis Theme and Child Theme on all 5 blogs.

Today. All-In-One-SEO-Pack has 30 million downloads. i trust it to be around for a long time.

 

This is a boring post (as are many) if you aren’t able to read between the lines and understand the unspoken insights embedded in my writing style.

The decision to delete all but one WordPress plugin was finalized while i’ve been writing – this Saturday morning, December 10, 2016.

Also removed commenting on posts. Why? i’m reachable other public ways and reply within 24 hours.

Between texts, emails, phone calls, and meetings, i do not need other additional platforms to check.

By the way, plugins are the easiest route in for hackers to attack your website. Comments and social proof isn’t worth it to me. If i know you, you know you have easy access to me, but not on my blogs.

Seems fair.

Why?

Because i decided it’s fair.

That decision is good enough.

Focus on zero expectations to thrive in business

Disney Customer Service Speakers
Adventureland at Walt Disney World two days ago.

 

Disney Management Keynote Speakers
Business meeting “in the Jungle”.

 

Disney Leadership Keynote Speakers
Founder of Jungle Navigation Company Ltd.

 

Disney Customer Service Speakers
Originally a shipping company founded in 1911.

 

Disney Institute Speakers
What began as a shipping company, two decades later it became a tourist attraction.

 

Disney Culture Expert Speakers
In the deepest, darkest regions of the Jungle lie stories untold.

 

Focus on zero expectations to thrive in business.

The minute i become a slave to what someone else may or may not be able to provide, i become dependent on something i cannot control.

Stay away from these situations.

Lean on the insane creativity you’ve cultivated over your lifetime.

Cash in on it.

The solutions you are looking for will be simple and they will set you free.

There is an exception to nearly every rule, including this one

Inspiring Buddist quote
There is an exception to nearly every rule, including this one.

 

Doubt kills more dreams than failure ever will. – unknown

While we show up for work for 40-50 years, we are also bringing our whole person with us.

Who leads us if we have a boss?

Many of us unconditionally believe that there is a God and a higher power or spirit.

Some of us even go as far as to say Jesus is the Son of God.

It is this notion that there is a Father, a Son, and a Holy Spirit that nothing can change for devout Christians.

While the only constant is change, for them the only exception is Jesus.

The two keys to spending more time thinking about going to work

Miami Heat and American Airlines Arena
Life is not a spectator sport.

 

There are two ways we spend our work days.

  • driven to get ahead, always chasing the prize of more
  • going through the motions, trying to avoid painfully watching the clock

The creative ability to find the good bits, and orchestrating a lifestyle to not need more are the two keys to spending more time thinking about going to work than leaving.
