Disney taught me to live intentionally

Disney University Speakers
i’m a regular at Disney University.

 

Biking near Magic Kingdom
Had the normal 3-hr workout before heading to Chicago.

 

i’m intentional about discovering opportunities to benchmark other Disney Keynote Speakers.

Also intentional about scheduling flights that facilitate the ability to exercise normally before heading out of town.

Will our perseverance fade or can we protect it?

The woman guiding the plane also helped us check our luggage. This would never happen at a big airport.

Traveled the second half of yesterday from Allentown to Walt Disney World. Back to our home routine this morning.

First run in seven days.

Between the cold and the travel disruptions from our routine, excuses for not exercising are easy to make.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

 

Literally shut out by the travel disruption

Fall tree colors
Out for a walk yesterday in Allentown, PA.

 

Fall tree colors
We walked and talked, and stopped for a few photos.

 

Literally shut out by the travel disruption. No exercise to speak of on Friday or yesterday (Monday). Did get a 5k walk in yesterday, so that was better than nothing.

Take what we can get when the going gets tougher.

And always always always…keep moving (forward).

Living in gratitude

No workout yesterday. Up at 4:00 am (3rd day in a row). Cab at 5:30 am.

Self-imposed travel diversion to Tampa – planning on worst case scenario with air travel – to make it home safely BEFORE Hurricane Matthew arrives in Orlando.

Rental car from Tampa airport to Orlando airport to pick up my personal car.

Living in gratitude, even though the original itinerary completely unraveled.

50% is sometimes acceptable…

During yesterday morning’s run in Kentucky.

 

Fitness app
Felt like going longer, but out of time.

 

Grateful to get 40 minutes to run. Didn’t make time for a gym workout. Hotel gyms are usually inadequate if you aren’t doing cardio (and i wasn’t). So, 50% is sometimes acceptable…

But when it comes to leadership, 100% is the only acceptable standard.
