Good, Better, Best

Striving for continuous personal improvement.

Learn how to do it better than anyone has ever done it before.  

Greek Mythology, Sisyphus was the king of Ephyra, also known as Corinth.  He was punished, by Zeus, for his self-aggrandizing craftiness and deceitfulness by being forced to roll an immense boulder up a hill, only to watch it come back to hit him, repeating this action for eternity. 

Tasks that are both laborious and futile are therefore described as Sisyphean.  We tend to complain during trials, make excuses and feel personally punished  

We tend to shy away from the grind and struggle of life thinking that it’s a curse and not a blessing.  Don’t be frustrated by the relentless struggle instead be driven and inspired by it.  

My dad taught me about business and sales when I was 16 working at baseball card conventions and our sports card memorabilia shop.  This episode is a summary of lessons from each chapter of Good, Better, Best that I learned at Tony Jaime Baseball Cards.

You can't sleep.  Broke people sleep.   You got to be willing to sacrifice sleep, if you sleep you may miss the opportunity to be successful.

If you can say Good then you are still alive, so get up, dust off, reload, recalibrate, re-engage and go out on the attack.  Get after it! Go on the Warpath And Get Some.  

·A leader is only as good as the team behind them.   A leader is entirely responsible for their team's actions so that when facing failure, a leader must take  extreme responsibility.

Develop a system that satisfies and excites those around you so that they naturally and consistently  promote your business for you through word of mouth.

Coaches are mentors that work hard at exposing critical errors that affect performance by properly identifying and correcting bad habits.  This process requires constant attention and a willingness to learn.  Musicians, athletes, pastors, and businessmen are constantly receiving coaching but what about teachers?  Everybody needs coaching!

It's Your Ship summarizes an extraordinary model of efficiency, teamwork, and multifaceted leadership.

Failure is part of life but it doesn't have to define you if you learn and grow from your trials.
