Pizza And Protein Shakes?!

The Actual Goal Doesn't Matter
Two guys are retiring. One guy got conference room cake and another guy gets a whole party. Â When I leave this company I want the party and there has to be 100 people there. Does it matter if 100 people show up or not? Nope. It's about setting a goal that pushes me to keep doing what I care about - being a great person that my coworkers love.

Maybe You're Just Hungry
Sometimes you're not mad, sometimes you're just hungry.
Take Control
I share a story today about how (waaay) back in the day when I started working in Corporate America I overheard a conversation between two guys mad at young punks (aka me) coming in and getting high salaries and decent jobs. Â Dude needed to take control of his life instead of letting it pass him by.

Follow Up - The Problems We Choose
This is a follow up to the a podcast I did about a week ago titled: "The Problems We Choose." If you haven't already, take a listen to that one. I describe a situation at the laundromat where this lady was super upset at another person even though the problems she was experiencing were all her fault. Â
After I recorded the original podcast, I ran into a similar situation, this time involving me. I thought it was interesting since I just recored the Problems We Choose podcast, and here I am experiencing the exact thing I was talking about. So, I decided to do a follow up.Â

He’s Heating Up
Quick podcast today- here Cole tells another basketball story and how 3 simple words had a big impact.
Focus On What You Can Control
On this episode, Cole:
- Talks a big game about his basketball skills (he really isn't that good)
- Tells a story (ie complains about) how a ref was never giving him any fouls
- Gets scared off by a try-hard dude who got ejected from a recreational basketball league
- Realized he was acting like chump with all that complaining
- Decided to take care of what he can control and forget the rest
- Still swears his basketball game is awesome
Dealing with a troubling situation? Outside factors messing with ya? Focus on what you can control and the game will take care of itself.

New Yorkers Like Brady?
As A Patriots fan, I used to hear all this trash talk from New Yorkers...but that's kind of changed over the past couple years. Here's why
