Lifetime Disney Passes, body

Walking around Walt Disney World, to me, is similar to walking around one of our great National Parks. Spacious. Wildlife. Wildflowers.

Paperwork playoffs, body

Home away from home. And office away from office. Being able to work from anywhere is good. Photo: Sanibel Island, 2018. Not much paperwork at the beach. Overwhelmingly digital.

Have spent four decades of collecting and subsequent saving and storing three three-drawer file cabinets full of Disney paperwork.

A lifetime of hope-filled effort.

The consistent and thoughtful Disney paper-collecting is synonymous with a lifetime of regular exercise, adequate rest, and proper nutrition.

Serious, intentional, focused long-term effort creates unique genre assets.

In this case, world-class business correspondence, and, excellent physical vibrancy results.

The world-class Disney paper assets are under final scrutiny now, since commencing about 10 days ago.

Nearly two weeks of ‘final’ purging.

i’m calling it the playoffs.

For the past 10-ish days, have been working through metaphorical quarterfinals, semifinals, and now, today after i write today’s posts, start the finals.

Disney everyday, body

Disney.

Everyday.

Transferring Disney’s best business insights to my personal life started in 1999 when i started teaching Disney insights to outsiders through Disney Institute.

When i started Disney Institute in 1999, i also started exercising again. Having just come off a 15-year Disney Resort Operations career, i had a quiet, desperate need to become healthier.

Disney Hospitality easily consumes young and blindly ambitious go-getters.

But while teaching outsiders the Disney Way, i learned things (insights) i didn’t even know i knew.

Technically, i didn’t need to ‘know them’ because what mattered most was that i habitually did them, without thinking about doing them. i then began a decades-long personal transformation to make health habits something i did without thinking about it.

So yeah, Disney, everyday.

Fire and Ash, body

There’s my shoe, lower left corner.

To drive to Disney Springs is so easy.

Cheryl did it for over three decades.

First, driving to the Disney Casting Building. Cheryl was the 1989 Opening Team, General Employment Interviewer team leader. She led that team for 10 years.

Second, Disney HQ (before Team Disney was built), at Disney’s Sun Trust Bank Building. She spent two and a half decades there.

Cheryl ultimately became the Director of Labor Relations.

First, this is an (Disney) Executive position.

Second, being an executive at Disney is two-fold: First, a highly-intense position that to outsider’s would be an executive position, but at Disney it was not. Second, a bona-fide Disney Executive that came with specific responsibilities, perks, and bonuses that heretofore did not exist in previous (lower) level positions.

For outsiders, this is roughly one of only 200 positions out of 70,000 Cast Members.
