The text came in last night that i had hoped wouldn’t

It took eight hours of incline peddling to reach the mountain pass.

 

The photo above is from my Honeymoon. It was a 17-day trip with $200 dollars in our pockets. We covered 600 miles. Not most 20-somethings’ vision of a Honeymoon.

.think .differently

Thinking, and more importantly doing, differently wasn’t learned at Disney, it was glorified.

The text came in last night that i had hoped wouldn’t.

We are somewhere close to being 100% apart on cost.

i am rationally realistic that i must begin to accept that walking away is a distinct possibility.

It will be a last resort.

But here’s the interesting thing, it will not take much longer to reach this decision.

Part of my brand is offering a value that is remarkably easy to take for granted.

My product holds a rare position in the management consulting business advising marketplace.

If a client can’t see it intuitively, it is likely to be a deal breaker.

Aha moments are addicting

Blueberry picking near Disney World
He’s not a nut job, he’s a fruitcake…during yesterday’s 10-miler.

 

He’s a thinker, not a writer.

He writes, but only to get the relentless flow of thoughts on paper.

He’s entertaining, not an entertainer.

His speeches are engaging, but only to allow the audience to deeply experience the insights.

He writes more than he speaks, the same way Usain Bolt trains more than he races.

This post was an aha moment last night.

Business mating

Classroom discussion
Yesterday’s classroom discussion

 

What is the first stage of management consulting?

Well basically, you’re courting the client and the client wants to know if you’re “the one”.

Business mating.

Simple to grasp.

Yet difficult because of our productivity-driven lives.

Courting takes time.

It is rarely love at first sight.

Because of the dollar signs involved.

Leadership in the 21st Century is about surviving the political process

Professional speaker
It may sound boastful, but confidence is necessary to be remarkable

 

Leadership in the 21st Century is about surviving the political process.

Similar to war, it’s survival of the fittest. It’s also a competiton between the most motivated.

Been like this since prehistoric times.

Fast forward to Spring 2014.

The job of the instructor in the classroom is to create something that is transformational. Something that is irresistible and remarkable.  Something people want more of…

And something they’ll pay whatever it costs to get it done.
