Success Skills Coach- March 2024
Commander-in-Chief Conspiracy – Congratulations to the Kansas City Chiefs for their Super Bowl victory. However, there’s a wacky conspiracy theory circulating that the NFL rigged the game for the Chiefs to secure an endorsement from Taylor Swift (tight end Travis Kelce’s girlfriend) for Joe Biden to swing the November election his way. Hey, I’m all in for a conspiracy that would get Da Bearz a Super Bowl win.
Joy Turns to Sorrow Three days after the Chiefs’ victory, tragedy struck when gunmen started shooting at the end of their celebration, senselessly killing a mother of two and wounding over 20 others. It’s hard to swallow that at every gathering we have to be vigilant about attacks like this, but this a sad reality in our country now.
Dead … Again??? The Grateful Dead played their last show with founding guitarist Jerry Garcia on July 9, 1995. Since then the band has had many incarnations, playing a “final” Fare Ye Well show in July of 2015. Later that year Dead & Company was formed, playing their “final” show in June of 2023. But now they’ve booked an 18-show residency at the Vegas Sphere — looks like their music never stopped.

Book Recommendations I read 50+ non-fiction books a year — it’s where I find ideas to help my clients grow their business. I get them (free!) out of my local library. Below are the ones I read this past month.

Exactly What to Say: Your Personal Guide to the Mastery of Magic Words I’m not sure if this short book is for you. So take an hour to read it and then you can decide if it helps you become more persuasive in both professional and personal situations.
The Money Kings: The Epic Story of the Jewish Immigrants Who Transformed Wall Street and Shaped Modern America. Read the stories about the men (yes, it was just men in the 1830’s) who used a combination of personal initiative and chutzpah to rise to the top of the American financial hierarchy and will themselves to acceptance.
Soldier of Destiny: Slavery, Secession, and the Redemption of Ulysses S. Grant If you’re a late bloomer you can take refuge in the story of how Grant rose from a mediocre soldier to Army general, evolving his stance on slavery along the way.
