Overtime’s Post

Sunday was a fun day in the sports world. Majority of you witnessed a great overtime finish to the Super Bowl. For those who are not golf fans, the Waste Management Open also went into extra holes to determine the victor. As a spectator, not much beats a close match that goes into overtime (you get more than what you initially paid for or expected, FREE SPORTS what's better than that?) On the field, the winner tends to be the team or individual that is better prepared for this additional time. If you are on the field and unprepared, it may be everything that you dread (49ers were unaware of the new playoff overtime rules.) Now, imagine your life goes into overtime. You come into retirement with an expectation of how much longer you are going to live, but suddenly you find yourself living beyond that expectation. You had a great gameplan for regulation, but you did not prepare for overtime. That means you may fall short financially as you outlive your money. As you build your financial gameplan, ask yourself the what ifs of unexpected events. They occur more often than we care to admit. This includes asking "What if my life goes into overtime?".

"We didn't know the rules"?? 🤦♂️ Preparation is key in any endeavor, especially when it comes to making a sales call. Just like in sports, understanding the rules of the game can make all the difference. Take a lesson from the recent Super Bowl: while the San Francisco 49ers found themselves unsure about the rules regarding overtime, the Kansas City Chiefs had extensively briefed their team on the possibilities and strategies in case they needed to go into overtime. This clarity and preparedness paid off, leading to their victory. Similarly, in sales, knowing your product, understanding your client's needs, and anticipating potential scenarios can give you the edge you need to close the deal. Don't underestimate the power of preparation! #SalesTips #PreparationIsKey #BusinessSuccess #kansascitychiefs #SBLVIII

Only 1 of the previous 57 Super Bowls went to overtime. Today it was reported that multiple 49ers players publicly stated that they didn’t know what the new playoff overtime rules were. And also today, it was reported that multiple Chiefs players publicly stated that they reviewed their playoff overtime strategy at training camp back in August, and every week of the playoffs. Don’t underestimate the value of contingency planning. You never know when it might immediately become very relevant. Even if it’s only roughly a 1-in-57 (or now 2-in-58) chance of happening.
