Thank you

Echo sign contract
Signed first speaking contract yesterday February 12.

 

First speaking gig contract signed yesterday.

Full asking price.

Took guts to list such a price.

Takes guts to believe you are worth it.

Takes something at an entirely rare level to believe you can actually change things by inspiring others to .lead .differently

Crazy thing, each of us possesses it.

Only a few believe it.

Please be one of them.

Happy April Fool’s Day Eve

Disney Leadership Speakers

 

(photo: Wish this tragedy from a few days ago, December 17, was a prank. Fear can paralyze. It can also embolden.)

Trimmed LinkedIn yesterday. It was already brief. Now even more so.

Less is more.

Or is that just an inspiring theory?

Writing for two hours every single day, six years straight, significantly changes what a person fears. And what they’ll do.

It began April Fools Day, 2009 but was only to last 100 days.

It’s been 2,190 consecutive days.

Never saw them coming:

  • The tragedy in the photo above.
  • The writing for years on end.

Never saw either one coming, not in a million years.

The retirement party was originally booked for Disney’s ESPN Wide World of Sports complex. His team welcomed and supported the change to the Napa Room.

On so many levels, it made perfect sense.

We survive or we thrive.

Being intentional is the key to thriving.

Dude, just keep it to yourself

Two young boys with iPhone
The wonder of it all is quite remarkable

 

Note to self: you have a very strange sense of remarkable dwelling within you. It mostly feels like something that only happens to rare, fortunate, hard working individuals.

You have been incredibly faithful in following your dream.

Please do not back down from this feeling, nor try to downplay it.

But keep it to yourself, ok?
