Lesson #3: Dare to Take a Chance and Be the First
| |
| Monaghan is fond of saying, “I owe all my success to stupidity.” In reality, the emergence of Domino’s as a global pizza empire owes itself less to the fact that Monaghan didn’t know what he was doing, as to the fact that he was willing to take risks and gamble on ideas he couldn’t predict the odds or the outcome of. |

Winning Needs a Plan, Not Just a Vision
| |
| Rocky Wirtz, the owner of the Blackhawks for less than 2 years, declared that the team would be a winning franchise again. Then he took action to do something about it. He almost immediately moved to change everything about the team from the players, to home office staff, to media contracts. And just as important as winning the Stanley Cup (Congratulations Blackhawks!), is how he did it. He had a plan that had likely been formulating for years prior to his assumption of the team from his late father, Bill Wirtz.

Are you STREAKIN\' or SLUMPIN\'?
| |
| Up or down? Making money or working hard? On a roll or in a rut? Where do you fall today?
What exactly is a SLUMP? In baseball, have you ever noticed that they call it a batting SLUMP when you are not producing, but they call it a hitting STREAK when you are on a roll? Why is that? Why don’t they call it a hitting slump? Why isn’t it known as a batting streak? It seems that a batting SLUMP has the connotation that you are getting poor results from lackluster efforts, whereas it seems that a hitting STREAK suggests that your above average results are based not upon efforts, but upon action!
Let’s break down those two words to see what they truly are. By using one, we may combat and even possibly avoid the other. |
