Three Things: Denzel on busywork, Draymond Green on learning and a growth mindset, NFL week two have many holding their breath
Three Things I Learned In Saas, Sports, Tech, and Live Events
1. "Just because you're doing a lot more, doesn't mean you're getting a lot more done." Great quote by Denzel. Such a double edged sword on this one. It is true. Hustle culture creates busy and busy can be counter productive. But: stuff needs to get done. A lot! And if it doesn't, our startups don't last long and die a death by a thousand brainstorming meetings. Like anything else, the answer is in the middle. It isn't quality vs quantity. It is the balance of both alongside a commitment to get busywork out of your business - for you and your team.
2. "In order to learn you have to understand what you don't know…..and most people don't understand they don't know s**t and so they're f***." Draymond Green with some colorful language. Maybe if we listened to him, starting with leadership, we could replace the bias holding us back, the finger pointing and the tribalism with constructive discourse in business and in life. https://twitter.com/anthonyVslater/status/1348041758928564227
3. Many are bracing for attendance and viewership numbers for week 2 of the NFL. It has been the one sport not hit heavily post-covid. There is fear that changes this weekend even in the face of huge Super Bowl ad numbers. The NFL's power comes from balance. Here's hoping the bottom half teams show viewer resilience and positive attendance trends.
