What I Learned From Coach Vince Lombardi That Guides Me in My Business
As a youth, I started playing organized, supervised football through the Boy’s Club in Elizabethtown, PA. I went on to play football at the junior high, junior varsity, varsity, collegiate levels and beyond for a total of about 18 years. During those years, I became totally impressed with a football coach named Vince Lombardi and his principles. And to this day, I try to use what I learned from Coach Lombardi in my business coaching practice and my personal life. Coach Lombardi believed that running a football team was no different than running any other kind of organization or business. Reflecting on the Maraniss book, other reading and personal experiences, I selected 10 key character traits & 2 quotes from Coach Lombardi for each trait to represent the lesson learned from each character item.

Turnovers & Takeaways
True football fans, particularly those like me who consider football a religion rather than a mere obsession, speak an entirely different language than you normal people. While I am, like other “NFLians” bound by a certain code of honor, I’m going to let the rest of you inside our secret world: just this once!
The “Difficulties” of Obtaining an Accounting Education While Running a Business
If you are interested in trying to enhance your accounting skills (or go further and obtain a college degree) while starting or running your own business at the same time, you are not alone. Believe it or not, the average age of college students today is 27. Many adults are going back to school years after what is considered the “traditional” age for attending college.
What Do Quarterbacks and Business Owners Have In Common?
It's that time of year when there is a lot of football on TV. Everything from college bowl games to professional playoffs. No matter which games you watch, it quickly becomes evident which team's quarterback (i.e. "QB") is better than the other, and usually that is the team that wins the game. How are you doing as the QB of your team (i.e. your company)? How do you measure up against all those other QBs (i.e. business owners)?
Shultz Starbucks
Born in 1952 and raised in Brooklyn, Howard Shultz was the first man to turn the Starbucks Company into a billion dollar retail operation. Howard Shultz grew up in a subsidized housing project is the eldest of three children and the first in his family to ever graduate from college. Moreover, Shultz attended Northern Michigan University with a bachelor's degree in the arts and sciences on a football scholarship.
IT'S ABOUT PROCESS NOT OUTCOMES OR WHAT FOOTBALL TAUGHT ME
Two of the greatest life lessons I ever learned believe it or not came early in my amateur football coaching career. They were to have a profound effect on my philosophy of life thereafter. So, if you can bear with me and allow my propensity to perhaps over-romanticize my 25 years as a football coach, I promise there is a lesson(s) here. You don't even have to like the sport!
What Ohio State Football Can Teach You About Your Business
If you follow college football, you've probably run across Ohio State a time or two. So why is it they win the small games and lose the big ones? The answer might surprise you (and you might be making the same mistake in your business).
OPTIONS IN THE MEDIA…
It pays to be a contrarian. You need to look no further than two great college football coaches. Don’t be afraid to go against the grain in decision making as long as you have the courage in your convictions as a leader and the personnel to fit your system. You can become the Paul Johnson or Urban Meyer of your industry.
Dumb Jocks … Or Smart Athletes?
We all know the stereotype. The great athlete didn't spend much time honing his intellectual skills; instead, all of his efforts were spent on the athletic field and thus, he tends to be lacking in the brains department. Like all stereotypes, this idea does not encompass all athletes, but still seems to be pervasive, especially among football players, where we all chuckle about the easy courses they take in college, etc. For example, it seems like 90 % of football players are Sociology majors, often the easiest curriculum at the university. However, some new research cited in Scientific American is stereotype breaking.

What to Do When Your Child Refuses to Attend College
As a parent, you certainly want the best for your children. While a college education is important, it is only one of many roads to success. But you are convinced that college is the best road for your child and you are meeting with resistance, trying using the following tactics to convince your children of the value of a college education. Keep in mind however, that all you can do is guide and suggest. The final decision is ultimately up to your son or daughter.
