You can use this concept for team building. You can apply the cast of characters concept to build a better team, build better relationships, and build a better project. Your career or business life is no different than the story in the book or the show they put on every day at Disney World. The appendix lists the name of an individual, their quest, as well as the category and status of their quest. At the same time, each quest is weaved into the greater whole of the story of the book.Īt the end of the book, Guillebeau included a cast of characters appendix. Each quest is individual and unique as the person who is doing it. In this book, Chris uses case studies of real life quests people have undertaken. I mentioned New York Times bestselling author Chris Guillebeau and his book The Happiness of Pursuit. Now, let’s look at one more story involving a cast of characters. And you can’t put on a show without clearly defined roles for the cast of characters in the show. Disney uses a cast of characters to put on a show for their guests. This is why Disney employees are called cast members. Each day is a new performance and employees have a deliberate role to play in delivering the best performance possible. Lee Cockerell explains, At Disney World, they are putting on a show every day. To get an idea of what a cast of characters is, I want to tell you two stories. I didn’t turn the idea into a book, but I did turn the idea into a podcast. When I mentioned that the cast of characters idea could be applied to networking, he recommended I run with it and turn it into a blog post or a book. In the back of his book, The Happiness of Pursuit, he lists the cast of characters of the people from the book. I will tell you now, that I stole this cast of characters idea from Chris Guillebeau. If you want a thriving workplace where work gets done, and people enjoy being there, you need a cast of characters. If you want to live your life as a rich, fulfilling story, you need a cast of characters. You need a cast of characters to build your story. To avoid being a Castaway, you need to add what Tom Hanks was missing in the movie. Yet, too often, we put ourselves in Tom Hanks’ position, feverishly rubbing sticks together to start a fire and shouting aloud to no one once we reach our goal. It was a compelling story, even though Tom Hanks was the sole character for most of the movie.Ĭhances are, you would not be entertained or fulfilled if you were alone on an island. If it were not for his volleyball sidekick, Tom Hanks would not have been completely alone. Tom Hanks is stranded alone on an island for a long time. If you haven’t seen the movie, let me catch you up without spoiling anything.
#Wilson cast away volleyball movie#
OverallĪ quality item that you can definitely use for playing Volleyball and yet has a nice comedy value tied in with it.Do you remember the movie Castaway with Tom Hanks? If you saw the movie, you probably remember Wilson, right? Wilson was the volleyball Tom Hanks always talked to. I suppose the film Cast Away is getting a bit old now and so maybe a few people will not understand why you have a ball with a strange image of a bloody face. It is a typical volleyball with a print of Wilson on it.
Its very hard to come up with any kind of negative for an item like this. For those that do not know the protagonist in the film gets stuck on an island and befriends a Wilson volleyball as his only friend to keep himself somewhat sane (debatable really if you are talking to a volleyball). Its basically an official Wilson volleyball with a print of the face of Wilson from the Tom Hank’s film Cast Away. The item has received overwhelmingly positive reviews with an average score of 4.5 stars out of 5 on Amazon. May or may not have its own consciousness.Actually an official size and regulation volleyball.A very accurate replica of the volleyball from the film Cast Away, complete with Wilson hand-print painting.
So, if you need a friend, buy this Wilson Volleyball. This item has received amazingly positive reviews on Amazon, with an average of five out of five after 33 customer reviews. The cool thing is that this is an official Wilson volleyball as well, so not only does it serve as film prop and collectible but it is also a functional volleyball. The official Wilson Volleyball from the Tom Hank’s film Castaway.
