This week I’ve been at some organizational meetings and they integrated into the program a trip to Cirque de Solei’s La Nouba at Orlando’s Downtown Disney. Some of the show and elements were integrated into some of the organizational discussions and it was a fun group thing to do.I’ll confess..I nodded off a couple times during it, but that could be a combination of jet lag and all-day meetings. Or it could be that I don’t find dudes in body suites contorting their bodies in unnatural ways very inspiring.There were a few acts that were pretty amazing and it brings to mind both how much talent the various people were as well as how hard they had to work day in day out to translate that talent to a form of artistry. It’s similar to many of the Olympic athletes as well.There’s times I ride some of the talent I have, but the results always are better when my hard work is matching or exceeding the talent level. Unprepared talent starts to look like non-talent after a while. Prepared talent ends up looking like “gifting.”
