The meathead manners is so spot on! Does not matter if you are the strongest guy on the planet if you are a Dick. No one will ever remember anyone else’s personal record. However they will remember how you made them feel.
I work in a testosterone driven type “A” organization with 500 guys. When someone retires nobody ever remembers the work they did. The only thing they care about was if the guy was cool.
Your opening rant was awesome. Thanks for having the balls to say what is true!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the start of this weeks show! Great message. Here’s a show suggestion: I’m not opposed to you starting every show with a 10-15min rant that teaches a life lesson. I think I speak for many of your listeners when I say this. You are a great storyteller coach. And you always teach valuable lessons. Just a thought. Thanks for another amazing podcast.
