In an effort to help me keep up with everything I post each week, here is my latest “Sunday Summary” of my posts from the week.
Mon, October 28: Four years of daily blogging
A few thoughts on having done this for four years straight.
Tue, October 29: The joy of crazy goals
It’s unlikely they’ll keep it up, but over the last five games the Detroit Lions have scored 25 touchdowns but have only thrown a total of 20 incomplete passes.
Wed, October 30: Big fires aren’t started by big sparks
“Some forest fires are bigger than others, but no one would claim that the size of the fire depends on the exceptional nature of the initial spark. Big forest fires aren’t caused by big sparks. Lots of individual trees have to catch fire and carry the flames.”
Thu, October 31: The Hamster Wheel of Social Media
Creating content on social media is certainly a great move for many businesses, but doing it with purpose and insight is far more valuable than just churning out more and more generic stuff.
Fri, November 1: The opposite of authentic is consistent
“I think this pitch that you should be authentic is baloney. No one wants you to be authentic. Just name anything you care about. If you go to a concert or if you get or need surgery, you don’t want the surgeon to be authentic. If they’re having a bad day, you don’t want them to do a bad job. You want them to be consistent.”
Sat, November 2: Counting fence posts
If you want to build a fence in a straight line that has 10 sections, how many fence posts do you need? The answer isn’t 10, but 11.
I hope you found some value in this. If you ever have questions, ideas, or disagreements regarding anything I write, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
