Illusion or Delusion? Sometimes It Is All In The Way Things Turned Out!

One of my favorite Walt Disney stories has been told in a few different ways. I hope I have not changed the facts too much here.

Walt Disney was taking a tour of Disneyland before the opening, and the gardeners pointed out some weeds that simply could not be addressed before the guests arrived. Walt Disney said "What do you mean we can't get rid of those weeds in time? Then go over there and put some fancy signs with latin names in front of them."

I was a kid...

We are coming close the the end of our first month. I'm hoping people are becoming more clear about their projects.

I'd like to post names and projects at the top of the blog so we can easily see who is working on what. If you finish a project before June, you will get a gold star next to your finished project and you can start another.

Should we give a special prize to the one who earns the most gold stars?

Can you think of a few resource people?

Walt Disney was an idea man, but he knew how to find good resource people who could carry the idea out.

He also knew how to find people who would support him, motivate him, and advise him.

He basically built a city, filled with the latest technology in robotics (at the time) and added some of the most unique art you can imagine. To do that, he had to take his ideas and add landscapers, architects, excavators, electricians, plumbers...you name it, he needed it!

Reframing those negative thoughts

Posted 09-21-2009 at 07:20 AM by Sandra Bostwick (Walt's Wave)
The Book How to Be Like Walt opens with "When Walt Disney was just a boy, his father put him to work in the harsh conditions of a Kansas City Blizzard-then kept the money Walt Earned. Even so, Walt embraced a nastalgia for his early years while dreaming big dreams of the future."

If you read various accounts of Walt's early years, his accomplishments become even more amazing. One thing is for sure...Walt didn't let ANYTHING stop his imagination or his drive.

Today's projects went like buddah....BUDDUH!

Today, after church, I went right to Home Depot and got supplies for my theme room. I'm still working on the first theme of Sanctuary in my bedroom.

It took two coats of primer and white paint, but the ugly, beaten up doors are now nice and white.

There is a movie called "Catch Me If You Can" with Tom Hanks and Leonardo DiCaprio on TV right now.

The movie has a scene where a con man is asked to say Grace before dinner, but he does not know how....
