Marietta, GA – The Value of Due Diligence
The proverb “The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty” is a reminder that success takes time, effort, and planning. If we are willing to put in the work, we can achieve our goals and live a fulfilling life.

Shout out to my good pal, Sam Freeman.
Thanks for everything, especially your friendship!
Marietta, GA – Applying the 80/20 Rule and 100 hours
The rule of 100 states that if you spend 100 hours a year, which is 18 minutes a day – in any discipline, you’ll be better than 95% of the world, in that discipline. Anders Ericcson developed this formula of purposeful practice in a study that was published in 1976.
In addition, the Pareto Principle or the 80/20 Rule as it has come to be known, breaks down the percentages that separate the masses from the average, the gifted to the exceptional. If we want to be exceptional or elite in any given group, we should expect to be different. Act differently, on purpose.
Read something meaningful such as a good book for 18 minutes a day (Facebook or Instagram doesn’t count) and you will be in the top 5% percentile of all readers. Practice a skill for just 4 or 5 hours a day and you will rise to the top 1% of your field.
Are you willing to be exceptional? To be in the top 1% of whatever path you choose?
Thank you all for your awesome feedback and comments, I appreciate it more than you know.

PS. Shout out to Andy Feldman who is both a friend and colleague. His dogged determination and critical thinking inspires me to be better.
Kennesaw, GA – Ability plus Opportunity is Everything (A + O = E)
Napoleon Bonaparte wrote that “ability without opportunity is nothing”. I like to modify this quotation to be a little more positive and say that our abilities and taking advantage of opportunity forms our destiny.
Malcom Gladwell writes in his book, “Outliers”, that successful people work hard at developing their abilities and practicing their talents, then seize opportunities when they present themselves.
Realize that we have all been given some type of privilege on this earth. When developing our potential, we should give back to others which completes the circle of our life here on this rock we call home.

Marietta, GA – Facebook
“Facebook is everyone else’s highlight reel” – Dr. Randy Ross
“Relationomics” is a recent book by Randy Ross. I attended a lunch where Dr. Ross spoke on the importance of key relationships and the value of having good character that transcends the first person relationships that we all have. Facebook as a social media platform has become the highlight reel that others know us by.
Manage your profile and posts carefully.

Dunwoody, GA – The Burden of Privilege
Much given = Much required
We each have the burden of privilege to give back at least a portion of what we have received. Embrace your best self and make the world a better place by your choices and contributions.

Marietta, GA – Be contagious today
1. Share a smile with a stranger
2. Encourage a colleague
3. Apologize for a mistake
Friend, take the initiative today and draw people to the good inside of you. You always have a choice to do good will.
Thanks everyone for the kind birthday wishes! Today’s post was inspired by the poison oak I picked up at my property last week. If you were to become “contagious ” would you want to expose others to the good within you?
Bryan.
Kennesaw, GA – If you could go back and talk to yourself when you were a teenager, what would you say to yourself? Would you change some things in your life?
We learn from our experiences, and grow from the relationships that are shared with others. Love yourself and share your love with others. Be a good example.
Send me a note. It would be great to hear from you.
