Shudder to think

Disney Speaker
The red TED dot on on the left, up on the stage. i’m down on the floor with Anas, an audience volunteer.

Shudder to think.

What if TED thinks i moved off the red dot too much?

It could happen.

i was off the red dot significantly compared to all the TED Talks i’ve watched.

Disney Engraving Cast Member Name Tags

Disney Cast Member t-shirt from 1980’s
Disney Cast Member t-shirt from 1980’s. Wore it yesterday to go furniture shopping.

Disney Engraving Cast Member Name Tags…400 per day, 100k a year.

If you look closely in the video, there are clips from a Disney Traditions class. In reality, a traditional and very special presentation makes the reciepient feel Magical (hinting to you that what you see in the video isn’t exactly how it happens…it’s much better).

Guessing this clip was modified to keep the “secret’ a secret.

Ask me and i’ll tell you the secret face to face, and then ask you to pinky-swear to keep it a secret.

3 Announcements yesterday

Disney Keynote Speaker jeff noel
Ty did all the arranging himself, with no input from me.

3 Announcements yesterday

  • Gary V LinkedIn videos inspired my video challenge (did you ever see the first video ever posted to YouTube?)
  • Yesterday morning i completed an epic 10-year (3,652 consecutive day) writing challenge (and start year 11 today)
  • Quietly mentioning on video a new podcast, If Disney Ran Your Life, which has 11 episodes available on iTunes and Stitcher (Cast Preview Days…practice episodes to be sure)

Will short (60-seconds or less) videos become a thing? Time will tell. Writing was never supposed to become a thing either.

7 tips for your first TED Talk

Disney characters at Glacier National Park
Still having photo upload issues. Rob will be here this morning and hopefully we can resolve it.

Summary:

1. Tell something new

2. Evoke contagious emotions

3. Tell a story (be personal)

4. Don’t lose the audience (jargon, etc)

5. Start strong (viewers are easily distracted)

6. Think globally (does your view make sense globally)

7. Practice (a lot)

My TEDx AUK Talk is a powerful and paradoxical catalyst to entirely (and easily) change the way we serve others.

Going the extra mile is the wrong place to start for personal and organizational vibrancy.

Going the extra mile is a dangerous strategy. Here’s why it’s wrong and what you can do about it.

There is a time and a place for going the extra mile, and it’s rare.

Why going the extra mile is a flawed concept, and what to do instead.

Going the extra mile is the last thing you want to tell yourself. Here’s what you should say instead.

The genius of doing next to nothing and how you can change your world doing it.

The key to changing our world is through doing next to nothing.
