- 😤 A Tale of Two Halves
🔮 STOP PREDICTING, START CREATING 🦄
#TheCreatorCommunity
COLTS 33, VIKINGS 0 ☠️
December 17, 2022. That was the score at halftime. As a Vikings fan, I did what most of my friends and family did … turned the game off and went for a winter walk.
JANUARY-JUNE 🗓
Did you win or lose with your business execution in the first half? Frankly, I don’t care if you’re ahead or behind … cuz it ain’t over. There’s this thing called JULY-DECEMBER.
If you’re ahead, look back at what worked and double-down on it. If you’re behind, look back and see what you could improve upon or what you need to stop/start in order to finish strong. Just know YOU HAVEN’T LOST.
WAIT, WHAT??! 😱
As I was strolling’🚶♂️along a snowy path, the Minnesota Vikings players and staff huddled in their locker room, reminding one another that there was still one half of a game to be played. And, they kept asking the question of one another, “What if?”
Oh, my. The Vikings outscored the Colts by 36 points the rest of the way to earn an improbable 39-36 overtime victory, capping the largest comeback in NFL history! (and I missed it)
“A setback is a setup for a comeback.”

HUDDLE UP, FAM! 👏
I love that T.D. Jakes quote, and it’s very timely as we assess both halves of our business year. Tomorrow, we’ll be gathering (huddling) at Noon (CDT) for our weekly Five Words In Zoom meetup. We’re going to talk about looking back and looking ahead and the best ways to set you up for success. Invite a friend or two to join so they can be encouraged on their creator journey, as well!
BEFORE YOU GO 👣
Next Zoom Meetup takes place Thursday, July 6, from Noon - 1 PM (CDT).
These weekly calls are included in our $5/mo. Membership plan. You can join today by signing up right here … would love to have you part of the crew!
