What would Walt do with your business?
If you have ever been to a Disney theme park, you have had the chance to walk around and notice the landscaping. Often you will see a sign that indicates the name of the type of plant, tree, or flower you are looking at.
Keep that in mind as we go through this little amazing tid-bit of Disney history.
A very special celebration for Disneyland cast members was held at the Disneyland Hotel Magnolia Room on July 17, 1965. As Disneyland celebrated 10 years, both Walt and Roy were invited to speak. Walt’s speech was honest, fun, and sincere…the cast members loved it.
At one point in the speech he said the following…“A lot of people don’t realize we had some very serious problems here, keeping this thing going … getting it started. I remember when we opened we didn’t have enough money to finish the landscaping. I had Bill Evans go and put Latin tags on all of the weeds. We had a lot of inquiries.
You have got to love it. The problem was that Walt was out of money, they didn’t have enough to plant nice new landscaping for the people to see.
The solution was wildly creative, just go out a give the weeds a fancy name. That is what they did, they named them, put a sign out, and that solved the landscaping problem.
Walt was so creative and talented that he had the ability to make weeds seem special and something that people wanted to see. (and know more about)
Now a weed is still a weed, you can dress it up, give it a fancy name, but at the end of the day-it is still a weed. But the ability to see something besides just a weed… -now that is something truly special.
But how do you learn or hone the ability to see more than mere mortals do?
Remember, mere mortals have jobs. You my friend, are a business owner and entrepreneur.
A super-hero.
A Guardian.
A mortal will see a dandelion for what it is; a weed.
You will see past the obvious and create something truly amazing. Dandelion salad, dandelion wine, dandelion salve, dandelion coffee, etc. etc. etc.
In August’s DSNi Mouster Class for Inner Circle Members, I answer the question, “What would Walt do with your business?” and reveal the strategies and tactics used by Walt himself to create something special where others only see weeds.
Developing this super power will be a game changer for your business. And you can get it here:
