You were born to give

Typo. No one is perfect. If Disney Ran Your Life….

Yet another debt of honor for which there can be no fulfilled repayment.

Only repay what you are able for as long as you are able.

All of the following are verbs:

Give.

Serve.

Surrender.

Breath.

Hope.

Love.

Write.

Today, when this goes live, the 12th consecutive year of writing five daily, differently-themed blog posts begins. Yesterday concluded, obviously, the 11th year without missing a single day.

In the giving, you receive.

Speaking from 11 years of writing experience.

You know what’s hard to believe?

family values
In a moment 4 years ago, we were asked to list our values. Immediately wrote mine down. Few people can write theirs immediately. Write yours down right now. See what i mean?

You know what’s hard to believe?

Couple things:

  • Haven’t had a drop of alcohol in 19 years
  • Have written 20,000 blog posts
  • Have written 5 daily blogs for 4k+ consecutive days

Even wilder, no one cares, yet the streaks seem heroic.

To me anyway.

Find your reasons to do what inspires you and brings you joy.

PS. Regarding reasons, you’ll need at least a million of them.

The list:

  1. Honesty
  2. Behave admirably
  3. Personal responsibility
  4. Self-control
  5. Initiative
  6. Fun

The handful of memorable days

We can all say we’ve had the ride of a lifetime, yes?

We each have a handful of days we’ll remember for the rest of our lives.

There are fewer memorable work days than home days.

Why?

Perhaps because fun and excitement are generally considered frivolous at work, yet at home it’s what we continuously wish and plan for.

To the past

Disney Keynote Speaker
This headshot was taken three days ago. Was in desperate need of a high-resolution photo.

To the past.

You are a great teacher, but only when we never let our past memories be bigger than our future dreams.

Dear Past, it’s because of you that 3,652 consecutive days of consecutive blog writing have accumulated. Thanks again for your consistency.

Season 1 and Season 2 may go away

Disney podcast
A text exchange between Jody Maberry and me last night, seen hours after we recorded Episode 13.

Season 1 and Season 2 may go away.

Why?

Because If Disney Ran Your Life podcast is in practice-mode.

Season 1 has a working title (as of today, March 1, 2019) of, “The Basement Tapes”.

Season 2 doesn’t have a working title but “Playing free gigs” comes to mind when i think about a group of teenagers starting a band in a home basement (Season 1) and they eventually have enough confidence to start playing a couple gigs for free (Season 2?), just to get in front of an audience.

Season 3 will become the official release of “If Disney Ran Your Life” Podcast.

It may make sense to remove Seasons 1 and 2 from iTunes and Stitcher. Time will tell.
