DU we love you because of three realities

Disney University Keynote Speakers
A few days after retiring from Disney.

 

Ran to DU (Disney University) yesterday for the first time as a retiree.

It was cool. Really, really cool.

Why?

Because of three realities: the reality that you live close enough to do it, that you have permission to do it, and that you are retired.

First impressions are not always what we expect

The Car Dealership General Manager said he felt guilty by the obviously fit middle aged men (47 & 55) in his office.

No guilt was intended.

To be honest, it was a huge compliment.

Unsolicited.

Yet proof that personal vibrancy is uncontainable.

If what you do for work requires setting an example, vibrancy is like honesty.

Exceptionally rare and valuable.

Uncontainable.

Where does one get energetic from?

Retirement card

 

(photo: Card from colleague…Fernando used an acronym… how does one earn the label, energetic?)

Something like 66% of the American people didn’t vote on November 4 (two days ago). Two-thirds couldn’t make it work.

The number is even higher for the number of people who do not lead active lifestyles – regular exercise, a balanced diet, adequate rest.

Why?

Because we are distracted, entertained, and medicated with busy-ness and apathy.

He who does not move does not notice his own chains.
-Rosa Luxenburg

Figuring this out is only one person’s responsibility.

We know this.
