Forrest Gump Said - Life is like a box of chocolates…

Last week we talked about the box - this week we’re gonna talk about the chocolates – the individual pieces inside the box - the players…

Today’s pep talk is the second part of a two part mini-series on Team Building.

If you did not listen to last week’s pep talk called - YOUR BOX

I recommend you go back and listen to it BEFORE starting this one…

Restaurant-ing can be a VERY complicated matter…

Today I am going to tell you a story… actually this will be more like an ALLEGORY…

My objective is to simplify – the idea of how a restaurant works – and your role in it…

The World can be a tough – mean – ruthless – unforgiving place…

People want to tear you down.

They want to destroy your ideas and beliefs especially if your ideas are new or radically different than the norm - different than the common – accepted rules of thought and behavior – that they believe.

The Greek Philosopher Seneca said

"ENDLESS PLEASURE BECOMES IT’S OWN FORM OF PUNISHMENT"

If I could only do ONE Pep Talk for the rest of my Life

this would be it..!

Today’s message is SIMPLE and VERY Straight Forward…

So Listen Up..!

All great restaurants are similar in many ways, they have a winning formula - a winning recipe

that I have been thinking about this week

With the key idea of – Focus-ing on the POSITIVE…

Why is the owner of the restaurant… standing in the dumpster…

Talking on his cell phone..?

Financial Freedom is about having control over your finances and the choices you make.

Financial freedom means you have enough income, savings, and investments to live life the way you desire without relying on a traditional job.

Financial freedom is a general state of mind.

It means you can pay for your life with little or no worry. You get to a point - where you feel secure – You know you can cover everything comfortably and confidently.

Financial Freedom is about having THE FREEDOM - TO DO WHAT YOU WANT - WHEN YOU WANT…

My goal with today’s podcast is to change you, my goal is for you to be a different person - at the end of this pep talk… than you are right now…

A restaurant is a precision machine… every part must work in tandem.

Imagine a bicycle wheel – if any part of that wheel is out of whack…

The ride will not be smooth…
