A Team Circus and a Texas wedding all in one week!

Lots of great highlights this week!  A Team Circus and a Texas wedding all in one week!  How much better can it get?



If you haven’t hosted a team member appreciation event yet this year.  Talk to marketing.  “the greatest team on earth” theme was a ton of fun!  We’ve worked over the top hard for over a year.  It time to connect, socialize and celebrate our team.

 

Notes that Resonated

  • The devils biggest trick is to convince you he doesn’t exist

  • When people aren’t a good fit, you must be clear about your standards and tell them how they’re falling short. Oftentimes, they will surprise you by stepping up to your expectations

  • Prove to your team what You Stand For.. don’t waiver on your values

  • The less your business is dependent only on you, the more valuable it is. The more your business depends on you, the less valuable it is.

  • We need friction in all areas of our lives. It’s healthy, and it stimulates growth, creativity, and learning.

  • As a leader, it’s your job to challenge your most talented people to live up to their talent.

  • trying to focus on “everything,” in essence they are focused on nothing.

  • A body in motion tends to stay in motion.  A body at rest stays at rest

  • Organize for tomorrow today- Zeigarnik Effect (the mind works to close the loop all night long

  • The most successful people don’t get everything done. They get the most important things done.

  • When “normal” people experience success, they have a tendency to respond by doing a little less.
