Last business trip of 2024 = One final keynote recording.
Behind the scenes of this keynote? Let's just say I've taken more swings than Roger's entire Wimbledon career. This year taught me that "taking more shots" isn't just tennis advice β it's about staying in the rally until you get it right.
I stumbled upon this photo I took in July 2020.
I remember watching my two furry coworkers chasing their quarterly goals around the backyard!
This image undoubtedly reminds me that even in the toughest times, there are things that can bring small moments of joy into your life.
Sometimes, the thing you spend your whole life avoiding - the thing you swore you'd never do even if Brad Pitt was waiting at the finish line - becomes the thing that shows you who you really are.
But only if you're willing to take more shots.
There are risks when you zig when everyone else zags.
Sometimes, the effort doesnβt pay off, and sometimes, it does. But I never regret doing the opposite of what everyone else is doing. I either succeed, or I learn something new.
