Comment on Don’t Eat the Marshmallow Yet by Hannah Hartley

What a hilarious and enlightening video! I watched three times already. We really learn a lot from kids. I agree with the speaker in the video, patience, hard work, diligence, determination and self-control really does pay off. There are instances in life which require some time before you are able to realize your goals but it is well worth the wait in the end.

Comment on Do You Pass the Snooze Test? by James H.

That’s actually not a bad litmus test – how many times you would hit the Snooze button on a work day. My last job was a 4.0 on the Snooze Scale, but my current job has a lot more variety and nicer people to interact with, so never a dull day. I think when you’re in a job that doesn’t prompt any enthusiasm, the rest of your life also feels kinda drained. Any positive change that you can make in this area of your life has a ripple effect.

I have two alarms set on the iPhone but it’s because I need the backup in case I unconsciously turn it off, which has happened once or twice. Usually that’s from an extreme lack of sleep, which I’m known for lol.

I know what you mean though in the article. Fuck being a drone and working for the man. Stay hungry kids.

As of lately, I do find myself not hitting snooze multiple times. I did actually hit it a few times this morning because I was a little more tired than normal, but lately I’ve been popping out of bed, getting Dominic ready for school, and getting my ass in to work prior to 8am the majority of the week.

I like to say if I hit snooze because I am tired, that’s normal and ok. If I hit snooze because I simply don’t want to go to work, that’s not normal and not ok. If it happens more than a few times in a single month to me that is sign to find a new job or have some hard conversations. Since changing to this philosophy, I have had a six year string of not fighting the alarm clock.

Comment on Always on Your Game by Tyler

And if you’re a proven winner, refs will ignore push offs like Jordan did to Russell (thanks, Greg Taylor).

While some may say that he got away with a foul, winners would say he earned the respect of the officials to just not call it.

Also, you didn’t see Russell bitching much, did you? That’s what happens when you compete against a legend.

Comment on Meetings Suck by Beau Frusetta

Um yeah…ask any of my co-workers about my demeanor when someone says “let’s have a meeting…”.

I loathe meetings…I’d rather jerk off with coarse grit sandpaper.

Comment on Integrity in Sales by Greg Taylor

Good post Conrey. All too often salespeople (and bad sales organizations) place too much emphasis on transaction based selling vs. relationship selling.

I don’t want to be in sales, but like it or not, being a small business owner I am. I have to be. Everything I do when it comes to the client has to be relationship based, keeping the big picture in mind. The person who I am consulting, helping or selling to can be my greatest referral source but not if I steer them down a road that only benefits me.
