All opinions in the blog are solely my own. Don't blame anyone else.
"The blog" meanders, offering suggestions not mandates. Remember that it's the strong swimmers that die. The weak don't put themselves into raging rapids.
The Fourth Agreement. "Always do your best." No apologies.
Samuel L. Jackson. "Bring the best version of yourself."
Media friendly. When interviewed, shower credit upon coaches and teammates. Appreciation never gets old.
Gratitude. "Thanks is the cheapest form of compensation." - Robert Townsend, 1970 in Up the Organization
Communicate better. Communication spans the spoken, written, and nonverbal universe. Show positive non-verbal communication.
Don't overthink. Trust your ability, experience, and teammates.
FAA. Washington Post investigative journalist Bob Woodward kept a sign on his desk, "FAA." That didn't mean Federal Aviation Administration. "Focus, act aggressively." Good advice for authors and MVB.
"Fall in love with easy." Keep the ball up; put the ball down."
"The neighborhood." Mr. Rogers advised, "look for the helpers." Play for the girls next to you. Have their backs.
"O reason, not the need." - Shakespeare, King Lear Memories, not recognition. Numerals on a banner represent external recognition for work well done. They can't replace your memories. MVB has done so well that it's hard to keep current. They couldn't fit 2022 on this banner.
