Disney Brand Loyalty Keynote Speaker
Five daily blogs about life's 5 big choices on five different sites.
The most interesting thing about LinkedIn profiles is how good everybody looks on paper.
Seriously, have you ever spent 30 minutes and just read as many profiles as you can?
With rare exceptions they all sound like this:
I’m so smart, I’m so smart, I’m so smart.
It’s gutsy to put a resume out there that contradicts every piece of conventional resume writing protocol.
It’s also fun.
Better late than never?

Revised LinkedIn profile number four… in 24 hours.
Not expecting anyone to read this, yet hope it’s validation of the effort (4th revision in 24 hours) that remains invisible.
…..
Different.
Balancing two serious jobs. One with a big, famous company. One with a small, loving Family.
Same person shows up at both.
Different.
Been like that 54 years.
The Internet has replaced the exchange of, and revolutionized the organization of, paper business cards and resumes with the digital equivalent. Google your name. Happy with your results? Privacy is gone for good. The keyboard won’t be around much longer either.
International professional speaker to a million people.
Bottom line goal: see you reach yours.
The clearer you are about what you want, the more remarkable the results.
Transforming things using the tools of nature – paradox, questions, and common sense.
Servant, husband, dad, son, brother, uncle, neighbor, leader, author, speaker, runner.
Aggressively unfancy.
Work is only work if you’d rather be doing something else, and truly, the work day begins the night before. Can’t wait for the alarm clock to go off every morning.
Allergic to most pollens, whiners, and mediocrity.

…..
To be crystal clear and not blur any lines, speaking full time for DisneyInstitute.com and separately and entrepreneurially for MidLifeCelebration.com (content is entirely different, completely distinct).
…..
Prudent to note social media is embraced by great organizations. Why? Because customers have embraced social media, and great companies (small or large) embrace what customers embrace.
Any Internet savvy professional knows Google destroys any notion of privacy. Authenticity is the new currency. Live your life so that if someone ever said anything bad about you, no one would believe it.
Sooner or later it becomes crystal clear, life is not a dress rehearsal.
Live like you mean it.
At work. At home.
Everyday.
All day.

We know this. And it applies to each of us, no matter our job or passion.
What’s the single biggest reason people get better at something? They try to get better. And try, and try, and try. Seriously, played around with different versions of a LinkedIn profile. Decided to save the drafts here before deleting them and starting over.
Don’t expect anyone to read them, just sharing the work in real time.
Revised LinkedIn profile Thanksgiving Day morning (11.28.13)… (third revision in 12 hours)…
Author of the brand new book that will put a dent in the Baby Boomer Universe, debuting Thanksgiving Day 2013. (To be crystal clear, the book is not about Disney, nor endorsed by Disney)
International professional speaker to a million people.
Bottom line, my goal is to see you reach yours.
I give speeches to change the world.
Never giving the same speech twice.
Transforming things using paradox, questions, and common sense.
Servant, husband, dad, son, brother, uncle, neighbor, leader, author, speaker, runner.
Aggressively unfancy.
I believe work is only work if you’d rather be doing something else, and that the work day begins the night before. Can’t wait for the alarm clock to go off every morning.
Allergic to most pollens, whiners, and mediocrity.
To be crystal clear (again) and not blur any lines, I speak full time for DisneyInstitute.com and entirely separately and entrepreneurially for MidLifeCelebration.com (the content is entirely different, completely separate, and never, ever interchangeable).

A thinker must think. A writer must write.

Over the years, do we experiment with our bio, our resume?
Should we?
Why wouldn’t we?
But do we?
. . . . .
The original post written 100 days ago included a LinkedIn profile rough draft, and was too long, too self-centered.
This post was re-written last night, March 12, and the photo was from the day before that.
Why is this important?
Simply this, life is a process.
A process of continuous improvement.

Do you dream of there being a time for you when you walk without any fear?
…
When we say Happy Thanksgiving, what do we really think we’re saying or imparting?
Going through the motions?
Or feeling grateful with every breath, every step? Living like you mean it?
November 28, 2013… Happy Thanksgiving…
We have come to know the true meaning of Thanksgiving Day when we learn to celebrate it everyday.
Right?
So what do we really want our LinkedIn profile to do for us?
And who even cares for a second how smart and experienced we are? There’s always going to be someone better.
If we’ve ever taken the time to read a bunch of profiles, they all say pretty much the same thing, “I’m so smart, I’m so smart, I’m so smart”.
And it’s true, people have amazing resumes.
And yet it begs the question, do they possess something so remarkable that they have elevated what they do to an art form?
Art.
Not paintings, sculpture, music, acting.
Art.
Different.
Thinking and doing brilliantly different.
Game changing.
Intense.
Inspiring.
That’s the type of speaker we want to listen to.
That’s the type of speaking remarkable speakers wake up driven to deliver.
