Who got prioritized priorities?

Way back at the beginning, circa 2009.

What you know is worthless without application.

Home manifestation

Home vibrancy is the manifestation of how you consistently are the last to be impacted and the first to recover from adverse conditions.

Home vibrancy is the manifestation of how you consistently make the best decisions using your prioritized priorities.

Of all the people you know, you are the most positive, healthiest, most peaceful and content, most remarkable at your work, and the most organized.

Having prioritized priorities is fun.

Never regret not having more fun than seems reasonable.

There’s a time to postpone fun. It will be an exception to the rule.

The rule is to make having fun a habit. Every day. All day.

A teacher until i die, and…

A teacher until i die, and…

In a perfect an excellent world, a teacher after i die too.

Tim Pollard made a name for himself (at Disney) by helping Disney executives with poor to good speaking ability to raise their game a level or two. For a short, planned, strategic speech, one that you would read word-for-word, brilliant.

For live, spontaneous, enthusiastic, organic audience interaction lasting one hour to five days, it’s a guide, not a Bible.

While continuing to purge a lifetime of Disney and home paperwork and “stuff” (like the orange coffee mug), these photos are stored in Apple’s Notes app and the physical cards and cup are gone.

Tim and i started out great and over time, his non-Disney character revealed itself and rubbed me in a non-Disney way.

The Disney Way is a thing – a cultural thing – like friendly, enthusiastic, helpful and courteous Cast Members are The Disney Way.

Any behavior that’s off even a little bit is easily noticeable, questionable, and without change, unacceptable.

Great speaking concepts are context neutrally great. Grateful to Tim for sharing his speaking wisdom. He definitely assisted Disney Institute (DI) at a time when standardized delivery became the new vision. Without Tim’s help, DI would never have done what we did. Incidentally, the bulk of this delivery change occurred after i retired in 2014.
