Look for the win, win!




The Legend Of The World Famous Louisville Slugger Baseball Bats
Louisville Slugger baseball bats, the official bat of Major League Baseball, got their start in 1880. Thats when little Bud Hillerich started work as .....


I'm absolutely convinced that if we look hard enough at any

given situation we can identify a win, win situation in it. "So

what's the big deal about win, win" you ask? Admittedly, I know

Profits Are Better Than Wages
My mentor, when I was 25 years old, dropped a phrase on me that changed my life forever when he said, "profits are better than wages. Wages .....
a lot of people (many are friends of mine) that go day to day in

their business dealings (and personal lives for that matter)

looking for opportunities that only benefit themselves directly.



Now I am not saying there's necessarily anything wrong with

this. Even so, I can't help but imagine that their personal

level of success might multiply if they only took the extra time

to explore ways to ensure that the opportunity was equally

beneficial to all parties involved.



There's something magical about focusing on win, win scenarios.

When we're fortunate enough to develop ourselves to the point

where we are always looking for these types of opportunities

it's as if they literally come out of the woodwork. The fact is

people like to deal with those that don't have the "what's in it

for me attitude", don't you agree?



Believe me, I'll be the first to admit that there are plenty of

people who have done very well for themselves without adhering

to the win, win approach. However, I wonder if one might really

consider them successful? Keep in mind that success has so many

facets to it. Just because someone has attained material wealth

for instance does not make him or her successful nor

non-successful.



It is all in the eye of the beholder I guess you might say. For

me personally, I measure my level of success by how much I can

give back to others.
