Some good advice to start your week off. Happy Monday and happy first day of July!

Be careful who you take advice from! 😎 In a world brimming with information and countless experts, it's crucial to discern the quality of advice we receive. Not all guidance is created equal, and the wrong advice can lead to undesirable outcomes. Here are a few tips to ensure you're getting the best advice possible: 1. Consider the Source: 🤔Look for advisors who have proven experience and success in the area you're seeking advice on. 2. Check for Bias: 🧐Be aware of any potential biases that might color the advice you're given. Everyone has them, but they shouldn't dictate your decisions. 3. Seek Multiple Opinions: 💭Don't rely on a single source. Gather various perspectives to form a well-rounded view. 4. Trust Your Instincts: 💪If something doesn't feel right, it's okay to question or even disregard the advice. 5. Do Your Own Research: ✍️Use the advice as a starting point, but make sure to do your own homework. ‼️Remember, the path you choose should be based on informed decisions that align with your values and goals. #Advice #DecisionMaking #CriticalThinking

Happy Monday. 🌞 Here's a quick 6-pack of lessons I've learned along the way that have helped me stay in the right lane and be the best I can be - for myself and everyone around me. 1️⃣ Failure – Ls aren't losses unless you don't learn anything, and if you don't take chances, you'll spend your life stuck at the start line. 2️⃣ Discipline over motivation – discipline will carry you when motivation doesn't show up. Stick to the plan and do the work. 3️⃣ Having a specific goal as a North Star makes decision-making easy. Does it serve this mission? If not, don't do it. 4️⃣ Don't invest your emotional, physical, and spiritual energy into something that will never pay returns - or even worse, pay negative returns. 5️⃣ Choose to see the good in the world. If you do that, more good will find you. 6️⃣ And most importantly, when presented with a challenge, face it head on with confidence and grace, and go all-in on coming out victorious. We all have personal agency over our own life, regardless of what we've been through. We have no control over that the universe throws at us, but we have full control over what we do with it once it's in our hands. I hope you crush it today, and carry that energy for the whole week! 💪🏻 Keep shining! 🌟

Integrity is key to success and build meaningful relationships.

Positive attitude is everything.

Turning Friday the 13th Into Your Power Day Today, many might see this date as an ill omen, but let’s flip the script and turn it into a day of empowerment and opportunity. Superstitions about Friday the 13th are just that—superstitions. In reality, this date is a blank canvas, waiting for us to paint our own story. Our mindset is the real game-changer. What if instead of fearing this day, we saw it as a chance to challenge our limits and redefine our approach to challenges? Let’s use this so-called “unlucky” day to showcase that our power lies in how we perceive and respond to situations. When we reject outdated beliefs and embrace a mindset of possibility, we open doors to unexpected opportunities and personal growth. So, whether you’re diving into a new project, making critical decisions, or simply enjoying the day, remember: the true influence of this date is created by our attitudes and actions. Happy Friday The 13th! #FridayThe13thMyth #SuperstitionIsJustInOurHeads #MentalHealthMatters #PositiveVibesOnly #BreakTheFearBarrier

What do you think if Dave Gerow’s logic here? I’m fully on the side of intentional coaching and mentoring to bring team members into alignment as much as possible, AND… I’ve seen toxic, underperforming team members suck the life out of organizations more often than I can count. The more influence they have, the worse the impact seems to be. How long do you wait before you part ways with someone that is tanking morale and productivity in your organization? For me, it’s about ten seconds. In my opinion, the cost of a package is well worth the savings in goodwill and operational cost. What do you think?

It’s 5pm on the last Friday of the month. The last Friday of the quarter. Monday starts a brand new month. A brand new quarter. And possibly even a brand new you. Was your first quarter a struggle? GOOD. Embrace the suck. Learn from it. Identify your weaknesses. Plug the holes. Batten down the hatches. Get ready for round two. Life doesn’t get easier, you just get smarter. Get after it.

Character is a work in progress! We never stop building character... And every day is construction and deconstruction day! Character cannot be forged without a sound belief system; so, develop or choose one! And make that belief system become your map, your compass and your directional tool. Then, decide on your specific life goal/s. Select some goal/s that is/are truly important and meaningful to you; and also, important enough to those people you care about, because you need them in your life’s journey. Let this goal become the guiding star for your life. excerpt from "Building #Character: #Integrity & #Conviction"; by RSMD, (#ProfessorSam); Like and follow if you agree. 🖖
