A 10-miler through Walt Disney World never gets old.

Using 10-miler and my name in the same sentence would have been impossible one year ago.

Makes us wonder what else we’ve been lying to ourselves about.

If Disney ran your physical wellbeing

When the glass slipper fit, her step-sisters were green with envy and red with rage. Cinderella Castle wall mural.

 

If Disney ran your physical wellbeing, we’d ask four simple questions:

  1. What are the four must-haves for every customer-facing employee?
  2. Can every leader describe the difference between training versus development?
  3. Does every leader know, and epitomize, the real work of leadership?
  4. If, for one year, you couldn’t replace any employees who left, what would you do differently?

There are many more questions but these are the baseline starting points.

Two miles is better than nothing

Best Disney Leadership Conference Speakers
“What is your strength?”

 

Two miles is better than nothing. It surely is. So yesterday at 5:30am, i took what i could get.

What we lack in distance, we make up by feeding our resolve to never quit.

Note: Speakers are generally the first to arrive and the last to leave. Long days (and early morning start times) are not conducive to exercise.

Little rest for the driven?

Time for lights out. Above, this was the last photo i took on the final night of The Osborne Dancing Spectacle of Lights.

 

Lights out.

i really need to get a grip on my sleeping habits. For two or three months now it’s been challenging (nearly nonexistent) to get eight hours per night.

Finding the need to take a mid-day nap of anywhere from 10 minutes to an hour; whatever my work load allows.
