The Big Time Is Today

My good friend and Hall of Fame basketball coach Mitch Osborn always says “Make the big time where you are.”

The same can be said about today Friday, June 17, 2022. Today needs you to treat it like the most important day of your lifetime.
You never know. It may be just that for you or somebody you come in contact with.

That may seem a little dramatic but it is a reminder to be present today. Be in tune with what is needed from you today.

Someone may need some encouragement and it may be needed at 5:00 PM on Friday afternoon. Will you be their encourager?

The big time is the moment you are in.
The big time is right now.
The big time is today.

Win Today!

I’m cheering for you.

Make A Masterpiece Today

How do you approach today?

Do you just want to survive it or do you believe there is something special waiting to be done?

There are action words in this great John Wooden quote and the first word sets the tone.

MAKE tells us that it is up to us as to what we create and do with the day. Don’t hope or want to. Take action and Make your masterpiece.

EACH DAY tells us that today is a new day, a new opportunity. Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not promised so focus on what you can do today.

The word YOUR is a reminder that what you do with today is your responsibility. Don’t be controlled by what others try to do to bring you down.

MASTERPIECE in Latin means great work.  Expect greatness today out of yourself and you will inspire others to do the same.

Create something meaningful today.

I’m cheering for you.

LIVE!


There are so many distractions that we can let occupy us during the day. So many voices telling us to do this or do that. 

We question ourselves. Others question us and the cycle goes on and on with no sign of slowing down.

Even with all of the responsibilities, people, meetings and tasks don’t forget to live.

Live on purpose and for a purpose. If you lose your why you will eventually lose your way.

Live life and live it in a way that brings you peace, joy and fulfillment.

It doesn’t mean the craziness will stop but you’ll be able to approach it with a different perspective, a healthy perspective.

I’m cheering for you.

Not Because The Coffee Cup Said So


Your approach to the day can’t be controlled by a saying you have on a coffee cup or a quote on Twitter.

Those things may get you to think but if you’re waiting for that to help you get through your day then you’re not going to have an effective or impactful day.

Your day and your leadership is a result of a consistent practice of your beliefs, ideals, and the integrity with which you do them.

Have confidence in your abilities and know that you are in the position of leadership you are in because somebody has trusted you to do your job and there are people counting on you to do it.

Be confident, but not prideful or boastful, in your abilities and lead people because of who you are and the talents that you have.
Not because a coffee cup saying told you that you were ready for the day.

I’m cheering for you.

Success Is Well Managed Failure

There is no such thing as an overnight success. You don’t just wake up one day and magically arrive where you set out to be.

You can’t hide from the fact that you are going to experience failure. You are. Chances are you will experience it today. The difference in what it does to you and for you will be what you do with it.

Failure is part of the process of success.
It is part of the learning.
It is part of becoming more.
It is part of getting better.

Don’t run from it.
Don’t hide from it.

Use it.
Manage it.

Let it help you.
Help others learn how to use it too.

I’m cheering for you.
