Patience and perseverance is grossly underestimated! Extremely smart and intelligent team members tend to loose the initial value they bring when they dont have these two qualities and averagely smart team members with little or no skills, but with a high level of patience, perseverance and commitment to growing tend to acquire all the skills and intelligence they need and become extremely valuable to a team over time! Patience and perseverance is grossly underestimated! Always better to Play the long term game!

You know why Aston Martin and James Bond have been linked for decades? I’ll tell you: when Aston Martins appear in iconic Bond scenes, it’s not just a car—it’s a symbol. And that’s how they’ve built an image that draws in clients who want more than just a ride. And you can apply this to your business too: stay focused on the story that truly sets your brand apart. 📸 @excelbranding on Ig #AstonMartin #brandstorytelling #businesstips #branding #dealership

Hi Patrick Bet-David , Why not do the same $1 million proposal as you/your friends did with the debate between #RFK & the Doctor - and push that $1 million towards hiring 30 ex- #NavySeals like Jonathan T Gilliam , to provide #Trump perimeter security till after the election season? Jonathan T Gilliam & the Navy seal you interviewed twice are game to provide the security and knows a bunch of other ex Seals, too. You might get Erik Prince involved, too. In exhange, then for each of your #PBD Podcasts, they could phone in updates and video footage from Trump rallies and daily life, and that way serve as continous marketing for PBD Podcasts thereby attracting other audience you don't reach today. Furthermore, a #GoFundMe or #GiveSendGo could be made where you/your friends match every single small dollar donation - dollar for dollar - up to $500.000 , thereby making it a continous talkingpoint - and marketing tool - for PBD Podcast and Minnect , too. Then put all the seals into #Minnect, so PBD podcast listeners/viewers can ask all the #Seals questions, too. After 2nd attempt on Trump, then #SecretService protection #DEI hires are inadequate. U.S. Secret Service You could even get Elon Musk to chip in.

A powerful story told well will connect with you at a soul level… Storytelling at its finest yesterday at the Edward Scissorhands ✂️ ballet 🩰 Not a word spoken but the audience were gripped to their seats and lots of tears shed throughout (me included 😢) It’s one of my favourite films of all time but the ballet took it to another level - I was in awe Here are 5 personal reflections from this incredible performance about acceptance, identity, & compassion 🎭 1. Embrace your uniqueness and differences - celebrate your individuality and appreciate the beauty in what makes you different. Rather than conforming, embrace your quirks and find your own place in the world 2. Compassion transforms lives. Fact - the power of empathy and understanding can transform lives. Extend kindness to those who seem different or misunderstood. Everyone carries their own burdens and stories 3. Adaptability and resilience - life will throw curveballs your way so resilience is essential. Learn to pivot, find creative solutions, and keep moving FORWARD despite adversity 4 Appearances can deceive: - look beyond surface-level perfection and appreciate the complexities within ourselves and others. True beauty lies in authenticity and vulnerability 5. Love conquers all: - love doesn’t always follow conventional norms; it can bridge gaps and defy expectations. Cherish love wherever we find it, even if it defies societal norms ❓ anyone else out there ia fan of this movie? Have you seen Matthew Bourne’s adaptation in the ballet? 🩰 #sundayvibes #ballet #theatre #embraceuniqeness #edwardscissorhands https://lnkd.in/efpYyJPF - watch this ☺️

🎶 "I am invincible, unbreakable, unstoppable, unshakable." Every time I hear Carrie Underwood’s "The Champion," I can’t help but reflect on the journey we’ve been on—from Hopin to RingCentral, navigating the acquisition, the highs, the lows, and everything in between. This song has become more than just a pump-up anthem for me every quarter; it’s the soundtrack to an epic career journey full of resilience, grit, and unwavering belief in what we’re building. When Carrie belts out “I’ve been working my whole life, and now it’s do or die,” it hits different because that’s exactly how I feel. We’ve faced setbacks, pivots, and challenges that most would see as impossible to overcome. But here’s the thing: we did overcome. Not because we got lucky, but because we believed in ourselves and in the mission. Every step of this journey has required us to dig deep, fight harder, and stay laser-focused on the vision we have for our industry, our customers, and our product. There’s no better way to put it—I’m all in. If you haven’t realized it by now, let me make it crystal clear: I’ve been betting on myself since day one, and there isn’t a single person in this world I’d bet on more. My belief in what we’re doing at RingCentral Events is rock-solid. It’s not just confidence—it’s conviction. If you're a gambling man, myself and RCE are the racehorse you want to bet on. 🏇 We’ve already proven what’s possible when you refuse to back down, and this is only the beginning. We’re the ones pushing boundaries, rewriting the rules, and changing the game in event technology. Every challenge we’ve faced has only made us stronger. And just like in the song, we’ve earned every single victory with blood, sweat, and tears. Champions aren’t just born—they’re made through the fire. 🔥 So, to anyone watching, doubting, or even cheering us on—know this: I’m not just here to compete. I’m here to win.
