I owe most of my success to the Miami Dolphins and here’s why 👇🏽 They suck. In my lifetime they have mostly sucked. So how has that helped me be successful? Being a fan of an awful team in which you can’t control the outcome does the following; 1. Drives you to work harder because you do have control at work. 2. Resilience - you’ve been tested mentally for years so when the going gets tough it’s a normal day. 3. You develop a hate to lose mentality. I’ll literally scratch and fight for a win. 4. Loyalty - Once I know I have the right team I’ll defend them, be patient and care for them like they were first gen family. I read an article years ago before the Cubs won the big one, and there were 30 years of study to back up exactly what I’m saying. They followed the journey of hundreds of Cubs fan's careers to support the data. The good news: If your team sucks, you have a better chance of succeeding in life 😎 #DolphinsSuck #salesleadership #richhitsgoals

Success is rarely a solo journey. It’s built on the support of many. Behind every successful person, there's a network of mentors, family, colleagues, and teams that contribute to their achievements. When an actress wins an award, it’s not just her name in lights; it's the entire crew, from the production team to her fellow actors, celebrating. Similarly, when someone represents their country on the global stage, their success is shared by all who stand behind them. As you build your career, think about the role you can play in a winning team. Be the kind of person who takes pride in the success of others, just as they take pride in yours. Your reputation isn't just about your individual accomplishments: it's also about how you support and uplift those around you. Choose to embrace and celebrate the achievements of others, and in doing so, you'll build a reputation that fosters success for everyone. Start today- build your reputation by lifting others up. https://lnkd.in/dXPNRziU

My company (Laacke & Joys) is celebrating 180 years. The average age of a company in the US is 10 years, so 180 is crazy! It's quite a number to wrap my brain around, so for a bit of context, here's what else was going on in 1844: 👉 The Milwaukee Sentinel, now the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, stopped spelling Milwaukee like this: Milwaukie. 👉 The Wisconsin Territory was just eight years old and four years away from statehood. 👉 Milwaukee is still two years away from being formally incorporated. 👉 The Civil War is 17 years away. So much has changed in the world and the marketplace in those 180 years. Some years have been great successes, with other years being less so. How to enjoy and maximize the successes; while mitigating and learning from the failures is every company's (and individual's) challenge. That Laacke & Joys, (with their brands of LJ Design & Manufacturing and Concept Seating) have been able to do this for 180 years is quite the feat! Cheers to many more! 🥂 🎉

Great things person of the day: Today's Person of the Day is Robert Faxon - Chairman of the Board of Faxon Firearms Recently I was fortunate to sit next to Robert on a flight from Boston to Cincinnati. We started chatting, and we hit it off. We talked about scouts, Camp Friedlander and Peterloon, we talked about keynote speaking and Bob's passion - his family business (noted above). We also talked about another business Bob started up - The Ohio Valley Antique Mall. And we talked about fishing, my home town of Marblehead (he goes there to fish frequently) and a lot more. The time literally flew by. But that's not why Bob is the Great Things Person of the day. Here's why: Bob is living his dream. As former CEO of Faxon Firearms, he built up his family’s business with passion and holds several patents in his field. Today, he’s moved into the role of Chairman and brought in a new CEO, allowing him to enjoy this season of life more fully. That means traveling with his wife, spending quality time with family, and embracing the adventures he loves. Case in point: Bob was on his way to a World Series game in New York—not because he’s a fan of the Yankees or Dodgers, but because he loves baseball and wanted to experience the excitement of a World Series game. Bob is the perfect example of living life to the fullest. He’s fried his chickens and moved forward with purpose. Bob, thank you for the great conversation—and keep frying those chickens! #Inspiration #LivingWithPurpose #BusinessLeadership
