What business lessons can you learn from the biggest comeback in the biggest college football rivalry game? A lot! Let's talk about it.
Adjustments to setbacks, staying true to the brand identity, consistency, patience, learning lessons, maximizing strengths while avoiding weaknesses, relying on your team culture, managing change, seizing opportunity and taking a risk by pivoting.... sounds like running a business, right? That is true, but it also describes the 2021 OU Sooners vs Texas Longhorns football game in Dallas, TX. Let's discuss the parallels between business and football before the 2024 Red River Rilverly kick-off later this afternoon. Boomer Sooner! Beat Texas!!

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PIECES OF ADVICE: “People Will Steal Your Ideas. Do It Anyways!” Episode 395 is a "Best Of Saturday Morning Hustle" flashback from 7/28/18 #ICYMI.
That's right, not everyone on the planet is ethical (or honest). Plenty of people you have never met (or might be very close to you) are willing to take other people's ideas and pass them off as their own. I'm not condoning it, but I'm just telling you it can/will happen. You still need to innovate! Come up with new ideas, approaches, tactics and ways of doing things.
Do not let the potential theft of your next great idea slow or stop you. Put yourself out there and see who does it better. Focus on your audience and your success. Anyone looking for a shortcut will ultimately fail. Make them work hard to keep up with you. Stealing ideas and claiming credit is not sustainable.

Two flashback episodes combine advice on embracing adversity and change as an opportunity to grow and on implementing this growth for the most potentially successful outcomes.
Adversity happens, how will you react? Adversity hits everyone. There will always be bumps in the road. You only have control over how prepared you are and how well you react to negative situations. Don’t let setbacks get you down. Use that to motivate even more. Don’t get mad or sad; get to work.

The simple truth is there is no simple, singular path to success - big or small. Most of the time, something (or everything) fails to work out as planned. BUT, that's not an excuse to skip the plan and jump in without a strategy. That's even worse. The key to success is making a plan, developed via a strategic process with goals, objectives, tactics, tools, assets and measurements that can adapt as needed because you will need to make changes along the way. The better prepared you are to change with circumstances, the more likely you will achieve your ultimate success.

People like to know what to expect from a business + be pleasantly surprised at the same time. The key to success is balancing the two. • Branding and Marketing should create expectations you must then meet (execution on delivery). • Product/Service (value offer) needs differentiation - an alternative to what's already available in the market. • Provide something exciting and deliver with consistency.

Flashback episode (originally posted exactly 7 years ago 9/9/17). I started my first business at age 15, but I didn't understand what I was doing. 30 (now 37) years later, I've learned a lot along the way. Find an opportunity to fill a need with something you have a talent for.
The business lesson I learned from “I started a business at 15 when I got kicked out of a rock-n-roll band” is to identify a need others have that they're willing & capable of paying for that matches up with skills, experience or talent you have = business opportunity.
