Today I'd like to share something I've learned from Ed about excellence. It's called the PENNY ON THE NIGHTSTAND.
Pixar Studios has a commitment to excellence that can be summarized in a shaded penny. Here's what that means.
For a movie they're producing, they will literally spend days or weeks crafting what is the equivalent of "a shaded penny sitting on a nightstand that you'll probably not even notice in the movie."
They are that committed to excellence.
So what's your shaded penny? The inside of a cabinet that a volunteer only occasionally sees? A small word in a newsletter that's going out to parents? An email that's only going to one person? A corner in one of your rooms?
Remember...
