No Matter What Happens… Do This!
Bad stuff happens – big and small.
It’s inevitable.
Pandemics… flat tires… social unrest… your FB ad account gets shut down… step on a rusty nail… death of a family member… loss of a pet… financial crises… bubbles and busts.
It’s life…
It’s not that I don’t take those things seriously (I do, more than I ever let on about)…. but I always keep 2 things in mind no matter how bad crap gets:

The TEN Minute Solution
I find myself torn in a lot of directions right now.
Family needs me… coworkers need me… puppies need me… my to-do list needs me.

Patience
Having 4 puppies at once will teach you many things.
* How to clean up poop.
* How to reassure little ones when scared.
* How to entertain those with the attention span of a gnat.
* How to regain attention during a “squirrel!” moment.
* How to love someone even if they’re pissing you off at the moment.
(Side note: the above sounds a lot like managing a Help Desk – but hey, I’m a cynic!)

Bob’s coming out with a product about making videos. He heard video is hot and he wants to cash in. He’s outsourcing the product creation 100%.
Bob’s never made a video before.

You’re One Presentation Away
I created a presentation about 15 years ago that changed my life.
