The Actual Goal Doesn't Matter
Two guys are retiring. One guy got conference room cake and another guy gets a whole party. 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.

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. 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.
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.

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.
