You can observe a lot by watching

This small purple flower stood out in the grass.
This flower is so small it’s almost invisible.
As if a special garden had been planted only here.
And then there’s the welcoming Beargrass.

You can observe a lot be watching.

Be a noticer. 

Early breakfast. 

Early, easy hike. 

Free time, including nap. 

A snacky-lunch with Cheese-its and Chex mix. 

One post it note.

One sheet of letter-sized paper (in room GNP stationary). 

One hour start to finish.

We mapped out the “generate ideas” phase of creativity for our son’s responsibilities as employee #2. 

The founder (me) is employee #1.

Son, you saw first hand how the creativity framework facilitates idea generation. 

The extras (common sense ground rules) i shared with you are intentionally omitted from this post. 

Shhhh, our little secret.

GTTSR?

At Disney, we do the opposite, “Yes and…”.

Bicycle trip on Going-to-th-Sun Road (GTTSR)?

Yes, if…

  • Extend hotel
  • Extend rental car
  • Move bike rental to weekend
  • Change flight departure day
  • Weather forecast without rain (hopefully)
  • GTTSR road project done

All of these things looked in alignment yesterday at 5pm. 

We shall see today.

A work-related special day on the calendar

Pikachu in Polebridge.

A work-related special day on the calendar.

Being able to work anywhere and anytime is a dream come for most people.

Son, you are experiencing first hand how it works.

Past traditions are good reference points and lessons learned.

Yet the future is wide open.

This excites the heck out of me.

Three lessons Glacier taught me about work

Disney Keynote Speakers
Your number one parental job is to be a great role model. Be honest and behave admirably, especially when you think no one is looking – someone is always looking.

Three lessons Glacier taught me about work:

  1. There is no limit to how creative you can be at doing what you do. 
  2. Nature, exercise, and a business purpose make a dynamite team. 
  3. Traveling light on the trail and traveling light in your purpose is a superpower.

Equally informed is a great ideal

Equally informed people seldom disagree.

Clear expectations.

Clear roles and responsibilities.

Clear performance metrics.

Timely, specific, and sincere feedback and coaching (both ways).

This is the only way to unleash potential and excellence.
