Meaningful and approval don’t mix

Meaningful and approval don’t mix.

Approval has a time and place.

And it also doesn’t.

Along life’s travels, approval is part of the process for becoming independent. And if you are attentive enough, and yearn long enough and deeply enough, your heart will speak to you.

Meaningful has to come from your heart, not from approval.

Trust your gut and learn from your successes and mistakes – from everything.

Entertainers are experts about being “Onstage”

Just before Chick-fil-A, i got the three monthly allergy shots. That’s where i ran into Louie

Entertainers are experts about being “Onstage”.

Louie is technically a Disney Keynote Speaker competitor.

He’s been an actor since childhood. He’s amazing at his craft.

He was a Guest Speaker for Disney Institute for several years while i was there. He regularly delivered a 50-minute “Disney Traditions” overview as part of Disney’s Approach to People Management, 4-day immersive offering at Walt Disney World.

He’s my all time favorite and you have to know that the other Cast Members who also filled this Guest Speaker role for Disney’s Approach to People Management were also incredible.

Louis is the best of the best.

It was so invigorating to talk (mostly listen) with him.

Son, because my schedule wasn’t jammed packed, the 45 minutes we talked didn’t make me anxious about being late for the next to-do yesterday. I had margin in the day’s schedule. Margin equals sanity (and opportunity).

Check out his website and speaker “sizzle” video here.

Offer it up

Disney Customer Service Speaker
Forgiveness sets you free. It sets the forgiven free as well.

Father John spoke about offering it up, a couple days ago during his sermon.

i immediately wrote it down.

What a great metaphor. Father John said his Mom would always tell him to offer it up when he got a sports injury – to use the injury for some good.

And then just now as i’m writing this…

Dear Cheryl, if all i got, is your hand in my hand, baby i could die…a happy man. The song is here.

We need significance in our life

Purpose Disney speaker jeff
This speaks to me.

 

Purpose Disney speaker jeff
What is the answer?

 

Purpose Disney speaker jeff
The wow factor.

 

Purpose Disney speaker jeff
Audience participation.

 

Employee Disney speaker jeff
Two thumbs up. Highest compliment you could get from Walt Disney.

 

Purpose Disney speaker jeff
Never saw the photographer. That’s the mark of a great photographer.

 

Purpose Disney speaker jeff
i have lunch here often.

 

Culture Disney speaker jeff
The single biggest lesson i learned about our success at Disney.

 

No matter how small the degree, we need significance in our life.

This is why Disney’s Common Purpose (i call it the Unifying Goal) is the key to our employee culture – the world-class culture of going above and beyond our job task.

Task vs Purpose is what we call it internally.

It’s ok to be off task if you are on purpose.
