We've had a lot of fun joking in the office about Sheen and his quips. We throw the term "winning" around a lot in jest but after a recent meeting I got thinking about it.
Are you "winning"? Is your business? How do you define "winning"?
We've been on a roll here at Take 2 with some successful meetings and landing new projects, while waiting to hear on others. In the last three meetings with potential new clients, each one has said how much they liked our work based on what they've seen and that is what prompted them to set up a meeting. In my book THAT is 'winning'. Having your work stand on its own is all any business can ask. From there let the chips fall where they may. When we started this company we wanted to create a quality end product that stood out from the rest and comments like these are exactly what we hoped for.
So are you 'winning'? Do you still have the drive and passion that brought you to the position you are in? Going the extra mile and treating every project like it's your first are ways to keep things fresh. In one recent meeting our editor suggested a really cool idea that the client was really excited about (as was I). After the meeting I remarked "that was a cool idea...can you pull it off?", his response..."we will".
Mr. Sheen, you can have your goddesses, and your silver valley ranch thank you very much.
