Childhood Lesson

"I’m not trying to tell anyone not to watch TV, but if you’ve ever spent a long winter afternoon playing shinny with the whole neighborhood, or a summer playing baseball with anyone who shows up at the diamond, you will know that kids who don’t have the chance to organize themselves and solve their own problems and feel the exhilaration of sport for its own sake are missing out on something irreplaceable."

Millennials, Gen X’s or Baby Boomers...Does It Matter?

Everyone is talking about Millennials making up 50% of the work force by 2025, but does it really matter? As the baby boomers retire someone has to replace them. Millennials have had technology since they’ve been born, but the world is moving that way. Technology helps us be more efficient, connected and improves our work life integration. The bottom line is if you can’t do you your job they fire you. You get another job and hopefully it works out. Will it be any different for Gen Z? Please tell me why it matters what generation you come?

What Office?

"Work is no longer a place you go, it’s a thing you do"
Do you need a office to work? Does having a office make you more efficient? I agree some people need it, but most people can work effectively away from the office most of the time. If you love what you do you'll never work a day in your life.
I'm also reminding everyone that the quotes I use do not include the author and I use them to inspire me everyday.

Culture Club

"Motivation comes from working on things we care about, but it also comes from working with people we care about"
People will forget what you did, they’ll forget what you said, but they will never forget how you made them feel. Try to work for someone who believes in you, because when they believe in you, they’ll invest in you. For you managers or business owners don't hire smart people and tell them what to do, hire smart people so they tell you what to do.
NEVER FORGET THAT RELATIONSHIPS MATTER.

3,2,1 Action!!!!!!!!!

"I’m not a product of my circumstances, I’m a product of my decisions"
You make a lot of decisions during the day, not all of them will be correct or well received. Actions follow your thoughts and decisions, so don't look where you don't want to go. Act the way you want to become until become the way you act. Communicate consistently about what's going on with the company because happy employees make happy customers. Being a great leader means inspiring your staff and if you want to avoid criticism, say nothing, do nothing, be nothing
