Ethan Hawke recently shared some valuable advice he got from Denzel Washington about winning awards. He said, "You don’t want an award to improve your status. You want to improve the award’s status." This is a powerful statement that challenges us to think about the true value of awards. It's not about personal recognition, but about elevating the award itself. What do you think about this perspective? Share your thoughts in the comments below. #EthanHawke #DenzelWashington #Awards #Perspective #Value #Success

Everything is better when we have earned it. Gertrude Warner is right on with this quote. Getting handed something never feels as good as earning it on our own. Hard work is long and grueling, but the reward for it is worth it ten out of ten times. #leadershipgrowth #growthmindset #personalgrowth #leadershipdevelopment #motivationalquotes #selfleadership #GlennAndrew

It's a sad day today watching Bill Belichick part ways with the Patriots. His impact stretches far beyond the football field, embodying a standard of excellence. Among his many memorable moments, one stands out: the "On to Cincinnati" press conference following the deflategate incident. This phrase, fortuitously coined by Belichick, symbolizes more than just a response to a controversy; it represents a mindset. Faced with adversity, his reply was simple yet profound: "On to Cincinnati". It's a philosophy about looking ahead, not getting mired in past mistakes or setbacks. This approach is vital not just in sports, but in every aspect of life. Encountered a problem with a colleague? Address it, then move on to your own "Cincinnati". Faced a personal failure? Learn from it, and then direct your focus forward. Embracing this attitude is crucial for success. We all face challenges and failures, but dwelling on them only leads to more losses. By focusing on what's ahead, we give ourselves the best chance to succeed in the next endeavor. In the spirit of Belichick, let's tackle our challenges and say 'On to Cincinnati'.

🌟 Redefining Success: A Journey Beyond Financial Goals 🌟 In the hustle and bustle of business, we often chase success with our eyes fixed on financial milestones. If wealth were the sole measure of success, my journey is still unfolding. But what if success is about more than just the bottom line? What if it’s about the impact we create, the lives we touch, and the communities we uplift? My businesses have given me the privilege to experience a different kind of success—one rooted in service. I’ve had the honor to be an alumnus of Leadership Rome and Leadership Georgia. I have served as Chairman of the Board for the Rome Floyd Chamber and President of the Board for the Boys & Girls Club of Northwest Georgia. These roles, among others, have shown me that true fulfillment comes from contributing to something greater than ourselves. I’ve also served on the Board of Adjustment for the City of Rome, the Development Authority Board, and worked with Walk a Mile in Her Shoes to fight domestic violence. Being part of the 100 Black Men organization has been a powerful reminder that success is about lifting others as we rise. For those of you, like me, still striving toward your financial goals, remember this: Success isn’t just about the destination. It’s about the journey, the lives you change, and the legacy you build along the way. I am grateful for the opportunities my businesses have provided, not just to succeed in business, but to succeed in making a difference. Let’s redefine success—together. 🙌 #Leadership #CommunityService #Success #GivingBack #Gratitude #LeadershipRome #LeadershipGeorgia #RomeFloydChamber #BoysAndGirlsClub #100BlackMen #WalkAMileInHerShoes

Celebrating All Achievements, Recognizing Every Effort: Lessons Learned in My Journey In society, high achievers and those who make significant decisions must receive much-deserved recognition and appreciation. Their dedication, sacrifices, efforts, and vision are commendable, and they rightly deserve the accolades they receive. However, alongside these notable successes, we must also celebrate the smaller achievements that often go unnoticed. These small achievers are the individuals who uplift their families from lower class to middle class, making sacrifices and investing their time for seemingly modest gains. Renovating a home, buying a second-hand car, booking a new house, purchasing gold, or getting an operation done without incurring debt—these milestones may appear minor, but they are significant for those who started from more challenging positions and juggled numerous responsibilities. I felt compelled to share this because, at times, small achievements, when unnoticed, can put pressure on the doer and break their confidence. But no—the only thing we need to get better at is being ourselves, better at how we live, think, and act. It's just us and those around us; getting better is an achievement in itself. Big victories and grand successes should indeed be the stories we tell and the goals we strive for. While everyone gets lucky at some point, standing firm until that day comes is a matter of dedication and determination. #Drugsafetymatters #EveryAchievementMatters #equalityvsequity #SmallWinsCount
