Can we organize trust?

Speakers Bureau payment check
Paycheck deposits do not happen on a weekly basis for some entrepreneurs. And they wouldn’t have it any other way.

 

Can we organize trust as a competitive advantage?

Can an entrepreneur deposit far fewer checks, yet prosper in remarkable ways?

Seth Godin on trust:

Consider the relationship you might enter into if you need surgery. You trust this woman to cut you open, you’re putting your life in her hands… without the transparency of seeing all of her surgical statistics, interviewing all previous patients, evaluating her board scores.

Instead, we leap into surgery on the basis of the recommendation from one doctor, on how the office feels, on a few minutes of bedside manner. We walk away from surgery because of a surly receptionist, or a cold demeanor.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

The power of a lunch meeting

The power of a lunch meeting.

Hence the term, power lunches. (a snarky definition here)

Relationships, insight, updates, sharing, fun, caring…these things make up the power in a lunch meeting.

It may seem casual, but in reality, it can intentionally be anything but.

My thank you email to her included:

Thank you for always being you. i trust you like few others.

Nothing earth shatter happened, but i do have a better understanding of not only where she is in life, but also where she is in her business.

i like that nothing earth shattering happened.

i trusted them and it didn’t work

iAqualink device
Brighthouse reconfigured our wifi network, at my request, disabling the old network password.

 

Zodiac pool app
Called iAqualink at 2:41pm yesterday and discovered i need to connect my laptop to the pool device.

 

special pin cable required
i only own Apple created cables, none of which fit this.

 

Best Buy website
Best Buy recommended this SKU# and brought one to the store pick up desk.

 

Best Buy product
Never doubting Best Buy, i discovered, at home, it was the wrong cable.

 

i trusted them and it didn’t work yesterday. Had to invest an additional hour to return and repurchase. i remained calm and grateful the entire time.

Backstory: Brighthouse came to fix a cable TV issue the day prior and turns out there was nothing to fix. i felt bad for the technician, so i asked if he could take a quick look at my wifi router. It worked fine but he had an idea how it could work better.

This change caused our old network, and password, to become obsolete. The pool app requires special handling. We leave tomorrow for four days. The pool is either going to run non-stop or not at all, since the mobile app cannot be connected. So there’s a time sensitivity to this.

One small thing has multiple ripple effects.

The good news is that even though pressed hard for time, it was still manageable because of good and decent organization and prioritization.

I Am Loyal

United States of America. The united part is the best part.

I am loyal. God is first, my Family is second and I am third. To me loyalty to God, Family, and moral values, is the same ideal as unconditional love.
