Your coworkers are killing themselves. Digging a grave with their mouth.

Rotting away, day by day.

Between 2015 and 2016 39.8% of US adults were considered obese.

You know, the thing that causes heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes and certain types of cancer and as the CDC put it, “…that are some of the leading causes of preventable, premature death.”

Preventable damn it.

Commuting, plopping down at a desk for 8–10 hours a day. Staring at a screen and slamming down junk food, ending up in a daily funk.

Is this “well-being?”

I spend $1,000,000 a year with a vendor, and they flush my money down their corporate toilet.

We all get sucked into the money pit vortex. Chasing vanity, lagging metrics like it’s the cure to the business failure plague.

Sure they’re important goals, but they add no direct value to a client.

16 hours a day clawing and scratching.

It left me no time for the things that mattered. It left me with no time for my inputs, as Nicolas Cole would say.

I gained weight. I sat at the computer, the phone, hammering out results.

At the time, it felt needed, but that’s not the way to live life.

The first is executing the vision, mission, values, and strategy of a company playbook.

The second is leading, coaching and managing a team.

I was reading Rand Fishkin’s book, “Lost and Founder” and he made an excellent point.

Not all individual contributors (ICs) are cut out to manage, and that’s okay. They still need a career path!

Management is unique. You have to have people skills!

Managers don’t always need experience in a given role. What they need is a skill to learn, coach, and manage.

If you’ve found yourself in a management seat, this is for you.

I hired an MBA with thirty years of experience thinking that was important. I was wrong.

He was my prince. A savior. Until he asked…

Can I bring my dog to work?

As a pet-friendly fella that’s not tight on “corporate” rules, I said sure, why not.

I’ve done it in the past. And I still tend to bring in my sausage every now and again.

He’s a dachshund named Buster.

It was the first day of training and things we’re going miserably.
