Making It A Game

Games are fun. Games build our productivity. Games get us excited.

Games make competition a good thing.

Games are the perfect combination of carrot and stick.

The only thing we need to make it a game is information.

More information = more ways to play.

Until It’s Not

It’s garbage until it’s not.

It’s a shitty first draft until it’s not.

It’s a rough start until it’s not.

It’s never good. Until at one point. It is.

Every idol. Every celebrity. Ever marketer. Every star started out this way.

Stay Positive & The Difference Maker Is To Then Focus On Being Better

Earned It

We can earn forgiveness for our mistakes.

We can earn a helping hand after we fail.

We can earn forgiveness after we screw up.

We earn all that keeps us moving after being knocked down by standing up in the first place.

First we have to put ourselves out there.

Stay Positive & Give It A Go

Get Ready To Tumble

It’s one thing to get ready to rumble; to move forward; to take action.

But getting ready only to rumble won’t get you through the dip or the adversity you’ll face or the self doubt.

You’ve gotta get ready to tumble, too; to be knocked down and get back up; to face push back.

It doesn’t sound as cool to say “let’s get ready to rumble and tumbleeeee” but it’s important we do it.

They’re Seeking Your Presence

They want you to show up. See you. Know you’re paying attention to them. They want to feel your presence.

And then they want you to do it again tomorrow with just as much heart.

Stay Positive & Present, Then Consistent

Caring A Little More

A neighbor over by us installed a wide-angle security camera so it could cover our yard in addition to theirs.

A business installed a free little library in their store and fills it with the books from another merchant up the street when it gets empty.

A customer of a bar brought the beertender a few cans of beer from an out-of-state brewery on top of what he already got for himself.

Business. Person. Entity. Customer. It doesn’t matter what capacity you’re in.

What matters is that when we care a little more, we all benefit.

Caring is work. But it’s work worth doing.

Stay Positive & A Little More Is All We Need
